From "Bradley Manning and the Two Americas" by Quinn Norton:

Ellsberg related the story of a panel on which he debated his own actions and those like him, with someone who seemed to him a surprisingly vigorous opponent. "I asked him after we'd had a debate, whether we really disagreed as much as had appeared in the debate," Ellsberg continued, "And he said 'Oh, I think you're evil.' That was a little startling. And I said really? Why do you think that? He said 'You undermine authority and that's evil.'"

There's a lot more thought provoking bits than that in it -- take the time to read it through. (Thanks to [info] - personal twistedchick for linking to it).
