i don't give two shits about Julian Assange either way.. he's a narcissist and a criminal..
he might be a narcisist (i'm not a psychologist. where did you get licensed?), but i don't believe he's a criminal, and if he is, then the law is wrong. he's a journalist who speaks truth to power.
he most certainly is not a journalist and he only speaks as much truth as is convenient.. the only truth he knows is the Julian Assange Saga..
he absolutely is a journalist, and, yea, after exposing the pentagon murdering journalists, he started having to consider where he would be safe and making sure not to have enemies on **all** sides.
some people need to believe in him for some reason, i don't understand it
because he fights the empire. that's all the more reason i need. han solo is a rogue and a scoundrel, but he's a good guy.
haha yeah you got the drama bad, don't you
i know right from wrong
Oh god, the edgelords are crawling out of their basements. Jeesus fuck, do you ever hear yourself?
this is just namecalling and appeal to ridicule.
and i'll bet you have a long manifesto about it that you've been working on for a while now
I don't know much about him. Can you give a link to some kind of summary of what he is about? I will also take any links from others as to why he is a criminal.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Assange
this goes over the worst allegations. nothing is sugarcoated.
he rose to prominence when he released footage from chelsea manning showing the US intentionally firing on journalists. it's called "collateral murder".
wikileaks helped pioneer anonymous, encrypted leaking.
Well he raped 3 women in Sweden
