Assange is an arsehole who's only interest is in publishing documents to damage short-term political interest without interest for morality, the safety of other human beings and the disregard for all things right.
- xj9 12y agoWhile I wasn't 100% on board with the cable leaks, I do think disrupting political interests and forcing transparency in government is a good idea.

Assange wants it both ways: he wants to be a media-like outlet, but not have the moral responsibilities. It doesn't work that way. Worse, by all accounts its mostly because he knows it would be a lot of time and effort to safely disclose the types of things he did/advocates should be. There's a very great personal convenience for him to "believe" he's no responsibility to safely redact documents.
