  1. You know he put the lives of many genuine human rights activists in danger all around the world, right?

  3.  @steele_heart77  He released information stolen from the US that put those working alongside US forces in Afghanistan at risk. When asked by the Guardian about this, he replied ''If they get killed, they've got it coming to them. They deserve it." He also handed stolen US diplomatic cables about Belarusian dissidents over to one of his colleagues, a guy called Israel Shamir. Who then handed the information over to Alexander Lukashenko's (president of Belarus) chief of staff, Vladimir Makei. And as I'm sure you know, Belarus has an appalling human rights record. Assange has a very odd view of the world. Meaning that he is more than willing to play useful idiot to any regime that is basically anti-western - No matter the cost to genuine human rights campaigners around the world. He likes to claim that US and western aid to such people is somehow tainted, simply because it comes from the west (while at the same time he himself has no problems working for Putin's propaganda channel RT). In other words, he is making out that western aid in the promotion of liberal democracy, free speech, and human rights is worthless and of no value - Something that real human rights campaigners in countries like Afghanistan and Belarus would strongly disagree with. You can't be a campaigner for free speech and the promotion of human rights while remaining neutral on such things. And yes, there are some things that western governments do need to keep secret.

  5.  @steele_heart77  So if someone were to hack into the NHS database and make available everyone's medical files, you'd be ok with that?
