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
