RE: Hit Pieces and Shit Pieces | The Vilifying and Dehumanizing Smear Campaign Against Assange
It's blatantly obvious to any able to competently consider factual reality that the outlets running this ball are no more than paid propagandists, as more than one commenter pointed out.
My favorite though, was @stikeDC: 'I'm thinking Pulitzer here.'
Maybe a Nobel for Lenin Moreno? After all, he's defending Ecuador from bioterrorism.
The sad thing is the segment of the population that yet retains any credulity for the enemedia. Some people are so dependent on their membership in what they perceive as their ingroup that only existential threat at the hands of that very group might cause them to even consider whether to be in that group. What's saddest about it is that those people are most certainly not in that group. They're nothing more than tools. For people with such great need to be in a group, that is a tragic fate indeed.
The far more credible allegations against JA have been successfully dispelled long years ago, and those manufactured charges dropped. This literal smear campaign is a glaring tell of desperation to dehumanize him because what he has done has strongly challenged war profiteering, genocide, and crimes against humanity that impugn rich and powerful gangsters that need hanging.
Like censorship, it's a gross signal of the weakness of that group, and like censorship, it's going to backfire on them and do them far greater harm than JA ever could. After all, the only thing Assange ever did was reveal their crimes. All they blame on him, they did to themselves. Anyone that does not see this propaganda and the outlets sullying bandwidth with it for who and what they are aren't of any use to free people struggling against oppression anyway. Only actual thugs use those who are non compos mentis as tools, and folks incapable of grasping these facts need guardians, not abusers.
Thanks!
