I wasn't making a comparison. I was saying that selling merchandise mocking/targeting one candidate and not the other makes you seem quite biased.

- crdoconnor 9y agoA) Why is their bias relevant? Their business isn't writing opinion editorials, it's releasing secrets. B) You'd be biased too if somebody was trying to kill you for doing your job. Furthermore, why is it bad to be biased against a candidate that wants to kill you? Does it interfere with the secrets leaking process? Was Deep Throat's testimony marred by his political convictions? C) When asked which candidate he preferred Assange said that it's like choosing between Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. D) If there was a critical dump of Trump emails which he sat on, fair enough. There wasn't.
- salvar 9y agoA) I was responding to someone who said "I don't see the slant". That's how the slant became relevant. B) Probably. And it would quite likely influence my choices in what information to release and what to focus on. C) Ok? D) How can we know there wasn't data critical of Trump's campaign that Wikileaks sat on? If Wikileaks wasn't selling anti-Hillary merchandise I'd have an easier time believing that there wasn't.
