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?

    “We had several leaks sent to Wikileaks, including the Russian hack. It would have exposed Russian activities and shown WikiLeaks was not controlled by Russian security services,” the source who provided the messages wrote to FP. “Many Wikileaks staff and volunteers or their families suffered at the hands of Russian corruption and cruelty, we were sure Wikileaks would release it. Assange gave excuse after excuse.”

    Because obvious Russian asset is obvious.

    Here’s the full story

        russia isn’t reluctant to assassinate people

        Look at me, I care about human freedoms so much that my life is more important, so I’ll help Russia to paint a skewed picture instead.

        Truthfully it was also articles about them releasing DNC hacks but refusing to do rnc hacks that seemed most obvious to me.

        At best they’re extremely partisan at worst they are a Russian asset.

            I guess you would say that if you didn’t understand. Makes sense that you don’t, given that you’ve been sucked into the cult of assange

                He’s using the website as a vehicle to promote his own messiah complex, and idiots like you fall for it because it makes you feel edgy by association.

                Give a plausible reason why he didn’t release info about Russia.
