Just the other day I asked people on here if they are afraid of commenting on Assange on HN incase the FBI break down their doors.

to my astonishment quite a few were convinced this is exactly what happens. TF?

Why wouldn't they be? Assange is an enemy of the state. Not "of the administration", but "the state", in total. The FBI is known to keep lists on and engage in attacks against what they perceive as enemies of the state. It's logical to assume that they might still do so.

They probably won't break down your door for commenting on Assange though. They'll have some other pretense, an anonymous tip about drugs maybe.

Assange being an enemy of the state is sufficient proof for me that Trump is not as dangerous as the left says he is.

I mean, Assange basically had 2 nukes, one with Clinton's name on it and one with Trump's name on it and released only the Clinton one because he had personal beef with her. This likely resulted in Trump's election.

Until that election, I was a Wikileaks fan. Now, I think Assange can go f* himself in prison for the rest of his life. What he did is almost unforgivable.

So people like Assange are useful only when they serve your favorite political party ? Not very objective

I believe he's suggesting that Assange should have released both sets of data, not just one because of his personal vendetta.

Two sets? There is no source that Wikileaks or Assange ever been in posession of any RNC leaks. This is disinformation.
