    A lot of younger people did start really breaking to the left from the Collateral Murder video. You can kind of make excuses for others as just a bunch of bad apples but that was US troops firing on civilians and children on camera.

    Yes, Assange is a dick and the louder supporters are kind of cringe, but it's a useful avenue for radicalisation.
