Assange's alleged assaults occurred in August 2010, Dip cables weren't till November. He is who he was.
What's funny (not-funny) abt all the Hillary people attacking @xychelsea is that it was Hillary/Holder's (arguably illegal) pursuit of Wikileaks that "radicalized" Assange.

You're holding Manning responsible for actions that happened when she was in custody? You're suggesting alleged assaults = Russian operative?
-
You referred to Assange being radicalized, not Manning. But nice demonstration of bad faith.
-
Sure. And I think cooperating with RU to take down Hillary is a different kind of asshole behavior than sexually assaulting people, if the allegations are true.

I'm no Hillary/holder supporter by a long stretch. But Assange has lost it.
-
Agree he has, now. But he was in a very different place in 2009-10 when Manning leaked to him.
-
I actually think, looking back on him, that he's always had the weird Silicon Valley form of libertarianism that has now been unleashed in more vocal form.

I keep reading about "all of the Hillary people" attacking Manning, but can only find Glenn Greenwald's example of Neera Tandin in his bizarre article in The Intercept today.

I think maybe Assange is a competent adult with moral agency.

if memory serves, assange was critical of the oz gov, one of the five eyes, and so, of most, if not all, of the five eyes ic agencies. i'm an hrc person, and i'm not attacking
@xychelsea, though i don't understand her early candidate positioning, and wouldn't recommend anger.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

OTOH, some of us see Assange today as same as Assange back at the start, just now with occasionally better marketing.https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/953003584752422912 …

Bradley Manning gave 750k files to wikileaks, most classified or sensitive, correct? there's no way he had time to go through all of those and determine that they were necessary for America to know about. He made wikileaks

Dems really can't reconcile that

And it was Obama who commuted her sentence. Many of those Hillary people were once Obama people

Eagerly awaiting the footage of all these people chanting LOCK HER UP! at campaign rallies for whoever she's running against.

what a hoot -- "all the hillary people". Assange, like Greenwald, just got his knickers in a knot because nobody was massaging his ego hard enough. I have nothing against Manning, but to file the day after Cardin released a massive report on Russia -odd.
