"I am Chelsea Manning," Pte First Class Manning, 25, said in a statement to NBC's Today programme. "I am a female."
:lol:
No. No you're not.
People can choose their names. Anyway, not what this thread's about.

He might want to think about changing his surname then.

They can't choose their gender though.
You'll be saying people choose their sexuality next.

No. No you're not.He/she/gender non-specific pronoun has also been sentenced to 35 years in prison for exposing the killing of civilians and first responders by the US military. (Sorry to sound so middle-class student-outragey, but I tried to put it in as dry terms as possible).
I'd rather discuss that, tbh.

Are you new here?
No chance of that I'm afraid.
35 years for being a tranny sounds fair.

After Hours football club
Whenever 606 closed for the night at 10pm, that's where most went hence after hours.
After 606 died, some became permanent there. I found GW and thus has become the best forum in the world at what it does

The fascist scum wanted 60 years as an example to truth tellers everywhere.
But I thought about this another way. What percentage of people actually want to know the truth about their government? A small percentage I would think, probably very small. So if a whistleblower feels the urge to inform the public he should also think about the fact that most don't give a fuck anyway. These government pigs only exist because complacent people tolerate them. You could say the majority has expressed overwhelming apathy and therefore the government agenda is valid, even when criminal. It's a sad state of affairs. Most consign this sort of stuff to the conspiracy theory bin despite the fact US Presidents, Kennedy and Eisenhower being key examples, have issued open warnings. It's right under people's noses and the fact they don't react is as good as endorsement. Manning is outvoted and so goes to jail.

Pretty much. Apathy rules.
Fair play to Chelsea though. Especially considering the transphobic cruelty of the USA.

:gp:
I do think people are slowly becoming more aware, though that just may be my skewed perspective. I doubt Manning will actually serve the full 35, probably be released for good behaviour, but the trend is set. Comply or be crushed.
And to think that people think Snowden should return for a fair trial :lol:

Hopefully you are Bradley Manning, because if you aren't it means you are potentially/ eventually the other guy.

Do you not think he/she will be released and/or pardoned pretty soon though?
And yes it's pretty fucked up that someone exposing wrongdoing is punished whereas those who committed and carried out this wrongdoing walk free. Only the hard line government-can-do-no-wrong, not-illegal-if-the-president-does-it types will disagree with that. And internet WUMs looking for a reaction.
What's also quite shocking is how two low-level people, and in Manning's case someone with obvious emotional issues, can get their hands on this so-called secret data in the first place.

We need our governments to stop the war on whistleblowers and take it to those who lie, torture and kill in our name. This will never happen though because the most corrupt and morally vacuous in our society have absolute power over us.

If you're going to spend that long in jail it might as well be at a woman's one.
Excellent tactics tbh.

They don't have any power over us at all by default. We give it to them. It's a simple thing to take it back because we outnumber them and all their armies and thug coppers by an overwhelming ratio. It's the same thing with our football club. We could easily fuck them up and turf them out if we could get organised and didn't let their bullshit divide us. Fans fighting on the terraces - they love to see it because when we are fighting each other we aren't stepping on them. Same with the filthy, vile government, they love racism for example.

It would be easy to take the bait on a question like that, but I won't. Only followers "believe in" or believe things.
