re: #163 WindUpBird

I think we’re just fundamentally going to look at wikileaks as wildly different things, you’re making it 100% political left v right, and I’m really not. I think it’s more human behavior about the secrecy of an entity whose reach and influence and holdings and occupations and military bases spans the entire globe. Do you really think the readership of wikileaks is monolithically left wing? All that juicy info, all these information junkies, and you don’t think there’s anyone anywhere who is not politically hypermotivated who just Wants To Know What We Do When We Invade Countries? Seems like human nature to want to know. What does far left even mean? Our far left? France’s far left? Lebanon’s far left? So yeah.

If China was in our position, wikileaks would be hassling china (or some other site would, that has better access to China)

And if it was Russia, it’d be Russia on wikileaks. if it was India, it’d be India.

Well, I already said it wasn’t all Wikileaks fault. This is something that has to be taken care of inside the military. By the Pentagon and upper level command. The leaks must be stopped before serious damage is done. So to that end I don’t care what the heck Wikileaks is on the political spectrum.
