This is why I don't take people talking about the Podesta emails seriously. This person found an email talking about seizures and immediately assumed it was about Hillary's health, but if you scroll down a bit, it's easy to see that it's Jennifer Palmieri telling John Podesta about someone in her own family's health problems, with Podesta saying "praying for you and the fam."

It's a great example of people just giving context the finger.

poo poo, even if this was about Hillary (which it probably isn't) the seizure was a reaction to antibiotics for a tooth infection, not a recurring chronic illness. Wonder how long CNN will go on about Hillary's health before realizing its a nothingburger.

It's also why Wikileaks are scumbags: it's private health information about a private citizen. Not something anyone has any business publishing.
Actually, aren't there tons of laws about this sort of stuff --- I guess they probably apply to doctors?

Edit: Oh hey, we have bigotry for one's sexuality now too; in her posts she only hit racism, sexism, and transphobia, but with Twitter she managed to complete the set. Congrats Tashan, you piece of human refuse.

I like what Wikileaks have done on some regards, but this time it clearly hopes to swing the election. He didn't even dump everything at once, but actually did it slowly to keep everyone on their toes.

I also saw an interview where he implies a Dnc staffer, whose name I forgot, was murdered by the Democrats.

The dude has a long standing problem with women since he first got semi-famous in Australia, I don't think there's really anything specific he hates about Clinton beyond that. Also he was raised in a neo-nazi cult thing which doesn't help.

No US President can give him safe passage though, as it's Sweden and the UK who are after him. Sweden for the rape charges, and the UK because he skipped out on UK bail when he entered the embassy.

I'm not super familiar with all of the laws, but I do work for an electronic medical record company and I know if I released private health information about someone that I accessed through our system, I'd be fired and my company would be sued hard.

But yes, this is in large part why I can't support what Wikileaks is doing. They're turning up a bunch of low-level dishonesty, letting people make a huge deal out of politics as usual, and just destroying innocent people's privacy in the process. The collateral damage is not worth the result.

Like, to the transgender community of this thread, is there a precedent for some people within the transgender community still having very traditional ideas of gender roles and sexuality and being kind of lovely about them? Its genuinely surprising to me to see a trans person going around calling people "low testosterone beta cucks" and "50 year old bisexuals" because it seems to me like those would be insults and ideas a trans person would be pretty sensitive about.

Trans people who believe in gender essentialism and biotruths and other bullshit do exist, from what I understand. I don't hang out with any myself I think, and am not really part of many communities in general because until recently I kept my identity stuff low-key, but yeah.
