Did Comey use the wikileaks dumps to get Trump in ? Knowing that it will cause civil unrest and up the possibility of getting m a s s s u r v e i l l a nceprotestcriminalization legislation through congress ? Fck Trump , obviously , that said isn ' t this a little bit like a paranoid conspiracy theory ? I don ' t think Comey is the greatest civil libertarian on earth but this is the guy that stood up to the Bush administration when they attempted to pressurise him into signing off on the mass surveillance of US citizens while his boss was hospitalised , he is not evil personified . The idea that the US government needs any more draconian surveillance laws or a reason to enact them is patently ridicules , for one you already have these laws , and have done for 15 years . You have to patriot act , you have secret laws , secret courts , secret rulings , and secret interpretations of laws . What more do they actually need ? ? And then we have the the Russians haxored our elections conspiracy theory , which , if true , is your own stupid fault . For over a decade researchers have been warning about the dangers of hacked elections but were labelled as conspiracy theorists , this was true as recently as the Democratic party primaries . These voting machines and tabulators were broken by design , a child could hack them . The people that madedesigned them knew they were not fit for purpose , the people that sold them knew they were not fit for purpose , and those that decided to use them and purchased them couldshould have known they were open to abuse . If you want to speak about all too coincidental then surely it is just as reasonable to suggest that your leaders and press were fine when American ' s could manipulate elections in the interest of the establishment but now suddenly wake up when they realise that means everyone can . And then we get to the hypocrisy of it all , the US has been overthrowing democratically elected governments for decades , it has been meddling in the internal affairs of almost all nations on earth since WWII at least , and earlier in SouthAmerica , the press is largely silent on this issue and the American public doesn ' t seem to care either . And now when , if true , another country just treats you the way you treat others you have the gall to start crying about it as if it is some great injustice . If it is such a great injustice how about you stopping spying on me , a citizen of a country that is supposed to be your ally , how about you stopping executing people via drone in sovereign nations you are not at war with . How about you putting on trial the people that ordered the secret prisons and the kidnapping of people for torture . Unbelievable .
