The media’s authoritarianism and WikiLeaks
this part is good too:
The immediate consensus in the American political and media class was that these activists were engaged in pure, unmitigated destruction — even evil — and should be severely punished. That’s because the greatest sin in our political culture is doing anything other than meekly submitting even to...
haha this will piss off some people.
trudymade:
the only people on my list that support that wiki leak dude are all dudes. i think he lost us ladies over the sneaky no condom thing, perhaps this lying about or refusal to use a condom is more fucked up to us because we have all had that one dude that did or tried the same thing or had a lover who refused to use them and that is just despicable.

Julian Assange Captured by World's Dating Police
Dear Interpol:

I see that Julian Assange is accused of having consensual sex with two women, in one case using a condom that broke. I understand, from the alleged victims’...

How America will collapse (by 2025) →
Viewed historically, the question is not whether the United States will lose its unchallenged global power, but just how precipitous and wrenching the decline will be.
