(34,845 posts)No one gives a shit what happens to him. He is nothing to your alleged shadowy masters of us all. It strains the imagination to think that any government cares about him other than to call him to account for his offenses in Sweden.
He didn't embarrass anyone to the extent you want to imagine. Big deal, he published some diplomatic cables. He released an edited version of the 'collateral murder' video and got caught by the public doing it.
It really saddens me to see this immense fixation on him as some sort of "people's hero". Even Wikileaks disowned him at one point.
No one cares other than wanting him to stop trying to evade the Swedish justice system.
All this slavish worship for a man who wouldn't hesitate to sell you out in order to make himself look heroic. As he did with Chelsea Manning.
He is nothing but another George Zimmerman wanna-be hero.
Desperate for heroes you may be but, please, look somewhere else. You're embarrassing yourself.
