How did he manage to turn from hero to bad guy? (in the eyes of the media)

Who is he, and how did it change the way you said he did?

The media was always out to get him, dunno where you've been. Some times a leak will happen that people want to know about and they just don't wanna go against popular opinion. When people don't have an opinion, they turn into pricks to try to warp your opinion.

is he the drummer from pink floyd?

because each revelation was more boring than the last

I thought he was young Gandalf

No, he has always had journalistic integrity. Wikileaks's cannot be biased. It's not supposed to take sides, that is it's purpose.

this.

Bush revelations = good, Hillary revelations = bad.

because he was never a good guy to begin with. he was only out to increase his notoriety. he wanted to be famous and be seen as a leader of a movement of some social justice worthy cause. targeting the us during the iraq war was easy pickins because the popularity of the us was declining. now he has to resort to more extreme measures for shock effect and to be seen as a leader again in his cause being so isolated makes it difficult though.

tl;dr he was only out to make name for himself for his own vanity not to make you happy for exposing the us as a big bad evil empire

CIA operations combined with his natural arrogance.

Its a meme to hate trump and anyone who isnt for clinton right now.
The media is bought and paid for by wall street. The politicians are bought and paid for by wall street. Clinton got exposed whether the fbi prosecutes or not. Trump hasnt been caught doing dirty shit for him to leak.

he's also provided a much needed conduit for transparency. imo, you would need some kind of massive personality disorder to find the job appealing, and I don't have to deify the guy to appreciate wikileaks

our leaders in gov and media get away with as much bullshit as they want if it isn't made public while they're still in office.

When has he ever talked about social justice? He's all about conspiracies.

littlealexinwonderland.wordpress.com/2010/08/01/the-wikileaks-manifesto/

He supports Trump, lib media want stand for that shit

why on earth would he be CIA? US gov talks openly about killing him

He's a threat to all mainstream media.
Mainstream media has become a tightly controlled, corrupted, self-interested racket, inseparable from its propagandistic conflict of interest.
Assange, on the other hand, does real journalism.
The "rape" smear against him was incredibly intense. I watched the tide turn on reddit years ago -- comment after comment lying about him without evidence, from new and barely-used accounts, until finally the real users were convinced too. The lies were repeated until they stuck.
Reddit -- and any social media site using 'voting' on comments -- is absolute cancer. Voting makes comments appear legitimate, yet is extremely easily manipulated. Don't ever use sites that allow you to vote on comments or like them. These elements are propaganda tools. They will manipulate you and they will manipulate your friends.

When he started getting paid by certain government institutes.

...

This

Same with Osama, just sayin

Really, OP? He started barking at the liberal god-leader. Instant villainy. He would be worshiped like fucking John Cena by now if he went after Trump.

>went after Trump

don't worry, that's coming soon...

The trips dont lie.

Of course it can be biased. He decided what to share and when. There are no Russian attacks on RNC or Trump's servers, and for some reason, Assange can only release data about Clinton. Russia has praised Assange and even gave him a TV for a short bit. Now, Putin knows Trump will back him and fears Clinton won't. That's why people are turning on Assange. He went from whistleblower to aiding a foreign government get Trump elected.

...

Because he's bravely hiding from criminal sex charges.

Funny that's one "tool" used quite often by the Clintons against their opposers. The other one is a more "permanent" solution.

CIA operations against him.
Or do you think Hillary personally fabricated the rape charges?

learn to read. people like this
think he is/was employed by the CIA

>help people leak shit that puts USA in a bad spotlight

>USA now hates him and domestic media follows

>tour around the world ranting about leaking shit
>thinks he is a revolutionary hero etc for leaking said shit
>no one really gives a shit about him
>doesn't drown in pussy like he expected heroes should be doing
>rapes/molests two women in Sweden

>Sweden now hates him and domestic media follows

>doesn't want to be convicted as a sex offender which would damage his hero status, flees to the UK with the excuse of it all being a ploy by the CIA to get him sent to the US
>UK gets asked by Sweden to get him exchanged so the investigation and trial can continue
>Assange uses all legal measurements in the UK to not get exchanged, hogging up legal resources for years
>after the final trials gets closed he then bunkers up in the Colombian embassy, hogging up police surveillance resources for years
>UK realizes that this guy is costing them a hell of a lot of tax payer money

>UK now hates him and domestic media follows

>Rest of EU now hates him for what he is putting their neighbors through, and media follows

>spend years in a tiny embassy with attention and relevance getting lower and lower by the day
>all out of tin foil hat blood money since the rich supporters realized he is just an attention whore
>tries to become relevant again by threatening to release documents about Clinton and leech some Trump cult attention in the process
>liberal media hasn't been able to stump the trump yet and sees opportunity to get more ad money with a more easy "good guy, bad guy" news campaign

>liberal media now hates him and Clinton followers follows

he is just a tin foil hat attention whore taking all the "credit" for what others leak on his 10$ site.
I think he deserves rotting in that embassy closet for the rest of his life, instead of taking those damn 30 days of community service he would have gotten for rape in Sweden

>instead of taking those damn 30 days of community service he would have gotten for rape in Sweden
I think it was the danger of being extradited to the US that kept him from going to the trial.

They loved him when he was posting stuff against bush, but when it is posting leaks about their beloved liberal Hillary then all the sudden he's a bad guy

Typical Jew media

Swedish law forbids handing out people to other nations if they are politically targeted in that nation

That only applies to shitskins. Norway extradited Viacheslav Datsik to Russia, and they have the exact same law.

A quick google search just says that guy is mentally ill shit head who vandalises brothels in his spare time, not a serious political activist.

Hardly relevant

All those whiny social justice warriors from universities are filling out the media.

Yeah, clearly. But he hadnt vandalized any brothels at the time he was extradited. Then he was just a member of an illegal political party who was conveniently placed in a mental hospital by the Putin-regime.

Stayed up expecting a October surprise, instead you got him shilling out his book. U MAD

People hates Clinton for mishandling classified information, yet embraces someone that leaks classified information. The hypocrisy.

Wait, wait, six years ago Republicans were calling for him to be killed. Now they think he's just dandy. He's a scum-sucking attention whore.

It's the whole guilty until proven innocent deal men have to live with. Even if proven innocent, their life needs to be ruined so people who are actually guilty will be more afraid to the thing that made them guilty.

If you can't even appreciate the difference between the two situation you're probably retarded user
go vote trump

Lucky trips checked!

Well. He put his dick in a woman who "used to work" for CIA.

With predictable results. Assange is a moron.

All a psyop mate he's a CIA/MI5 asset

One of the women he's accused of raping used to be employed by the CIA.

He trolled the fuck out of trumpfags, I'll give him that. Some of those idiots stayed up all night to watch that hahahhha

You are suggesting that retarded people vote for Trump? They already are user, they already are.

because the media can be bought to tell anything to the population.

>Some of those idiots stayed up all night to watch that hahahhha
any links to what we were supposed to be watching?

But his book is 40% off RIGHT NOW!

foxnews.com/politics/2016/10/04/wikileaks-to-publish-presidential-election-docs-every-week-for-next-10-weeks.html

He's using something out of Trump's own playbook
>Hey everybody keep watching me! I've got YUUUUUGE news. Over here. Look at me.

TLDW : Assange trolled Trumpfags by teasing leaks for a long time.

Amerifags being amerifags were too retarded and believed it. End.

Trump has these low-IQ morons fooled, so it's obviously not too hard to pull off. Anyone who believes that building a wall will fix all of the problems is bordering mental retardation. Even retards wouldn't believe that crazy shit kek.

Too many people in power have shut they don't want coming out.
One rule of defence is offense : if they demonise him he becomes irelevant (see snowdon )
On balance 50% think they heroes & the remainder hold him up as a saint!

nah fam, the clintons just got to him is all that happened. he had a vulnerability like a family member that wasn't protected or something, and they found that weakness.

No but it sure makes it harder then just fucking swimming across the rio grande you autist

He is anti-american> FBI should capture him.

This

The difference between a hero like Snowden and a scumbag like Assange is that Snowden loves America and wants to fix it, while Assange hates America and wants to destroy it. I realized that a long time ago without any help from 'the media'.

Despite the fact there are thousands of leaked Russian documents you mongoloid. There is more dirt on Clinton simply because she has been in politics whereas Trump has not, I wouldn't be surprised if the RNC is leaked sometime too.
