Why Are People Hating on Julian Assange? - eviltoast

I thought he was like one of the most important whistleblowers of our time exposing war crimes and shit. Some of you don’t wanna see him live another day, why is that?

    so I’ll help Russia to paint a skewed picture instead.

    nice try, shilly… but there’s a huge difference between “reluctant to get killed by russia” and “helping them paint a skewed picture”

    btw, the DNC leaks were not from a russian hacker, they were from Seth Rich, who was killed for it.

    also, america was off limits for many years for similar reasons.
    and they’re still in the process of extraditing him to slowly kill him in prison

      You are aware that people can disagree with your conclusions without being a shill, right? Seth Rich’s parents would also like you to stop disrespecting his memory by saying he was murdered by the DNC, they even refute he was the DNC email leaker.

        if you made any sense in your “disagreement” other than vitriolic repetition of easily discredited lies, well then i’d consider you might not be a shill.

        the DNC leaks were an inside job. This was proven forensically by Bill Binny, an NSA whistleblower…
        Seth Rich fit the MO and was murdered shortly thereafter by people that didn’t take anything… killed, not robbed…

        it could’ve been not him, but there’s a lot more reason to think it was him over russian hackers… or are you really taking the government’s word on leaks about the government?

        his parents would have no way of knowing any better than me, so i don’t see how that’s relevant…

          Bill Benny, Trump Qult member, enthusiastically refutes reports that exonerates the DNC of murder. Shocking. You accuse me of taking the government’s word when you’re taking the word of someone with an agenda. I mention Seth’s parents because they have a a vested interest in finding out the truth of what happened to their son and their conclusion is the DNC leaker conspiracy theory is a a load of bullshit.

          A month after visiting CIA headquarters, Binney came to Britain. After re-examining the data in Guccifer 2.0 files thoroughly with the author of this article, Binney changed his mind. He said there was “no evidence to prove where the download/copy was done”. The Guccifer 2.0 files analysed by Leonard’s g-2.space were “manipulated”, he said, and a “fabrication”.
