Are Liberals Too Eager to Believe Sex Charges Against Julian Assange?

[woo me with science]

6. I don't see liberals here believing them.

There is a relentless attempt at perception management going on by the reliable defenders of the one percent...as is to be expected when the government is caught engaging in this type of authoritarian behavior. The longterm posters lining up to smear Asssange and defend the government here are also the predictable, reliable defenders of every other authoritarian or right-wing act coming out of this administration. We have seen the very same group lined up before many times to attack Occupy and defend brutal police crackdowns on Occupy, as well as to defend bank settlements, bailouts, austerity budgets and attacks on SS and Medicare, indefinite detention, drone wars and drone assassinations, surveillance infrastructure, TSA groping, and any other corporate, right-wing, neocon, or police state policies.

The most recent informal poll at DU showed pretty clearly that liberals here support Assange by a large margin.
