Well, I'm sure the relative lack of new reports has nothing to do with Assange hiding in an embassy since 2012 and being extremely carefully monitored... > You

> You're the one who's justifying the felonies because they release information of public interest! If any tidbit of information that could be of interest to historians is important to release, why not release the RNC emails, or information on Russian kleptocrats?
Well, yeah, if he has that information then I think he should release it. But I don't know if he does? And if he does I don't know if he has other reasons for not releasing it, maybe it'd damage a source, or he doubts it's reliability, or maybe he just dislikes the DNC. I don't know! But I think that just because what he releases damages the supposed "good guys" doesn't mean he shouldn't release it.
- belltaco 8y agoHe was doing much more than just releasing information. He was actively aiding and abetting nonsense. https://our.wikileaks.org/Pizzagate https://our.wikileaks.org/Pizzagate Leading to https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/john-podesta-pizzagate-766489/ https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/john... Not to mention fueling the Seth Rich nonsense.
- overgard 8y agoWell A) that wiki leaks page directly says it’s speculative and not endorsed directly at the top, and B) that’s related to him being arrested for being involved in this how? Other than character assassination of him? I don’t even think he’s probably a good guy, but I’m amused that most of the criticism of him is ad hominem.
- belltaco 8y agoIt goes to show their intent with trying to inflict maximum pain on the democrats and do everything to make Trump win, why would one create such a wiki in the first place? >criticism of him is ad hominem That's how criticism works. That's how intent is shown. The leaks weren't for the good of the world, it was to push an agenda at any cost, even with fabricated nonsense and also for personal gain, he was begging Trump Jr for a recommendation from Trump to the Aus PM to make Assange the Aus ambassador to the US, as payment for helping Trump win.
