I aprichiate the work of #wikileaks related to pushing govs. to more transparency through leaking.
I have high reservation about their role played within the #trump election.
I dislike their trolling activities that are intended to shape false/ pro-Julian #Assange, narratives.
I still want him to be free.
Just this, that's over the limit:
''Julian lives in us. He lives through us and he's fighting for us....''

I care less about what Zizek thinks than I do about what Trump thinks. At least what Trump thinks is worth paying attention to because it has an impact on my life. Zizek is an irrelevant peddler of discredited psychobabble.
@paulfree14
he's the Jordan Peterson of the left
@paulfree14
" Julian lives in us. He lives through us"... I wonder what combination of Freudian theory and quasireligious Marxism he got that from
@paulfree14 @kittybecca Marxism-Leninism prolly

marxism, hegeliansim and theology:
@paulfree14 well, it's Žižek. Dude is trying to stay relevant now that his followers are turning to Peterson to explain to them why it's okay to be alt-right.
The only thing I don't understand is what their connection to DiEM is — it taints the entire project IMO.
@GyrosGeier maybe there is no direct connection and they just posted it cause of campaigning to end isolation for Assange.
#Zizek and #Peterson are both unknown to me. What should I know about them?
Jordan Peterson is a recently emerging right wing pseudoscientist. You could say that he's the mirror image of Zizek on a left/right axis. Peterson produces rambling reactionary monologues and, like Zizek, frequently contradicts himself.
These types of commentators are sometimes amusing or entertaining in an absurdist way, but shouldn't be taken all that seriously.
(In Zizek voice)
Well, you know, it's true what they say. Zizek is really more of a performance artist than a philosopher, blah blah, and so on.
@paulfree14 classical zizek
@paulfree14
Because it's true. He is the frontier of free press. No one would dare to publish what they did. He is hero.
About elections. This is what every media org is doing as free press. Like it or not, it's irrelevant. He exposed warmonger, corporate criminal HRC. Sorry if you didn't like what you learned.
Attacking Julian is attack on free press.
DiEM stands for his human and journalist rights. Who doesn't respect his rights, aligns with oppressors.

@paulfree14 I dislike Assange a lot, though a lot of good work has been done, but he has been responsible for causing shit, some shit worse than Trump's election that is often overlooked (like a release that put LGBT in the middle east at risk), and tbh I don't think the rape accusation isn't untrue because he was pretty big asshole to his girlfriend in Australia before he fled, so I'm not entirely convince he wouldn't do stuff like that.
