Keep up the great Wikileaks!
“In one of the messages, sent at 6:35 p.m. on the day of the election, Wikileaks wrote, "Hi Don if your father ‘loses’ we think it is much more interesting if he DOES NOT conceed [sic] and spends time CHALLENGING the media and other types of rigging that occurred—as he has implied that he might do." Wikileaks reportedly claimed contesting the election could help his father further delegitimize the mainstream press and build the new media network he seemingly desired”
Also without Wikileaks no one on planet earth would have never discovered that diplomats sometimes engage in diplomacy AND that wars are terrible
- sschueller 8y ago"created: 33 minutes ago" just to post this?
- arminiusreturns 8y agoIt's not the new accounts to watch out for, they are obvious. Military industrial congressional academic think tank complex (as Ray McGovern has been calling it) psyop sockpuppetry is much more subtle and yes, they are here on HN. Hell, the irony is that their plan to deligitimize Assange was leaked... but people are still falling for it.
- Reelin 8y agoIt shouldn't surprise you in the slightest that people don't want their regular accounts associated with political hot potatoes. HN in particular has a lot of accounts which link back to semi-professional personas on GitHub, SE, etc. It is a depressingly low effort and poorly articulated comment though.
- Asooka 8y agoHey, I don't like President Trump either, but having the country in the grasp of that paedophile harpy Clinton would have been much worse for civil liberties and freedom of speech, not to mention the possibility of a third world war with Russia and/or North Korea. Every few years the Democratic Party goes full retard and we have to take our penalty 4-year Republican rule, but hopefully 2020 will be better.
