Manning helped create wikileaks and gave it all it's cred and it turns out wikileaks is a Russian puppet run by a rapist nazi libertarian lunatic who's a huge reason we have Trump. Since getting out she's still defended the organization, to the point now she's going back to jail to protect Assange when even wikileaks people are now working with the feds to end the insanity and has hung out with Nazi's.

She's a sympathetic character on a personal level but she's a huge reason the world has gone to poo poo right now and she's still protecting some of the key assholes and preventing people from fixing the mess.

Really the most frustrating thing of all is the Dem's inability to properly diagnose what happened. Clinton sucked and promised more status quo bs that everyone hated, get over it. She fumbled what should have been an easy jog to the endzone and that's not Putin's fault or Manning's fault or any other scapegoat.

2008 was the first election I could vote in and I was happy to go for 'hope and change' after being disgusted with 8 years of Bush and instead I watched more of the same but also the economy got worse and worse and worse. That's what hosed up 2016 for the Democrats - the sound education they gave everyone in just what hope and change entails.

Now I get well off libs baffled at me like 'but the economy is so great!' whatever stick your heads in the sand some more this will all collapse hard again sooner or later if the climate doesn't gently caress us first.

Of course the Dems can't admit that because it would mean maybe their entire donor base and ideological stance is wrong and can't have that as 80 year olds who clutch to power.

The wikileaks dem emails thing was basically just pointing out poo poo that everybody knew but wouldn't talk about like "clinton bought her way through the primaries" and "everyone in the democratic establishment is extremely out of touch" which had an effect on the election

The reason Manning's decided to die on this hill doesn't really have anything to do with Wikileaks, if we trust her statement, which we really have no reason not to.

She's willing to testify in an open hearing but not a secret one. That's it. I guess I support this principle in, uh, principle, so good luck to her with all that and I hope her legal counsel are in fact not stupid.

Yeah and she's also objecting to the whole leverage grand juries have to effectively lock away someone indefinitely in violation of the spirit of their 5th amendment rights. Even though yeah grand juries are specifically listed as an exception to the 5th.

Also to be clear, they don't really need her testimony. This is a pure spite move on the part of the government. She's being punished for being Chelsea Manning here and for daring to stand up to the government.

More information is not a bad thing imo. They haven't shown to leak anything outright false or made up so until then I trust that what they release is at least legit even if through a certain lens or even if they hold stuff about their friends back.

And yeah idk I think Panama Papers have helped me argue to a lot of people that look the rich just hoard this money away, they don't know what to do with it, trickle down is stupid bs, etc.

DNC leak is a good example. I'm sure they had lovely info about the RNC they chose not to leak but so what? That doesn't make what the Democrats did okay. It doesn't make top level DNC leadership colluding to smear Bernie for his religious beliefs okay. Those things should have been leaked and I hate the realpolitik game of "ah well but everyone is lovely and you're just focusing on our shittiness and corruption!" Just don't be lovely and corrupt bing bong.

It's the same as if you arrested a criminal and they go "ah but why are you focusing on me, tons of other people do this exact same thing?" That may be so but you're the one that got caught and we're not going to just let you off the hook because "hey everyone does it." Everyone smokes weed too but most Dems don't bat an eye at giving people years in prison for possession of marijuana - just look at Kamala Harris' support.

weren't those emails from like a solid month after bernie was mathmatically incapable of being nominated lol

bernie lost because he ran a really lovely campaign because by the time he started running the only people available to manage a campaign were d listers, presidential campaigns are a big jump from running for senate in a state best known for one of the highest drug addiction rates

like look at what happened between his campaign and blm, he spent months saying "my socialism will save you all" and "but i campaigned for civil rights" which was incredibly tone deaf response to society encouraging black men to be murdered by cops. the only reason bernie's policies are even moderately good is because of people standing up and saying "your policies are poo poo if you aren't white"

bernie earned his loss, fair and square, despite the poo poo going on behind the scenes. like how can you sit there any say the dnc was a bunch of masterminds when they have been virtually irrelevant since 2008. the dnc is just an inept organization led by rich people who exchange favors to each other, which is the only thing they're actually capable of doing with any proficiency. like if the emails were "we're not going to let bernie's rich rear end friends serve on any boards" then there would be some merit to ratfucking

You missed the point. It's not that they screwed Bernie (which they did). It's that they are corrupt assholes whose real masters are the rich so why should I vote for them at all?

Btw the leaks may have happened after Bernie already lost but the actual things the leaks described them doing were very much during the primary.
