>The problem here is believing your own bullshit, as they say on the streets. Or put nicer, coming up with a line of reasoning that you (and perhaps others) deem to be the "correct" one, and then imposing it on the rest of us against our will. Well it goes both ways. The government is constantly imposing its will on me in ways I resent. Assange also feels this way and notices that the ability of the government to impose its will rests on conspiracy. Your 'argument' is impenetrable because whether or not the organization is inherently just (and shouldn't be messed with) or unjust (and should be messed with) you are fully invested in your paradigm and seem unwilling to give it up regardless. From the standpoint that the US govt is all democracy and stars and stripes, of course Assange is 'bad.' But that doesn't appear to be the reality of the situation.
