"Assange more likely has a European superiority complex (like a lot of Europeans) and knows he can easily gain support from morons -- who did you think frequents 4chan and calls themselves Anonymous..? He doesn't really care what the cables say. Sure, "we're reading them line by line, but we'll release all of them in a s`hitstorm if anything happens to me or WikiLeaks."
This quote preceded the one that was mentioned by Cancambo. In it you make the assumption that Assange has a European superiority complex, apathetic to the material released, and imply that the people who enjoy having such material available are morons. Thus you detract from the actual argument at hand with a subversion of character. Assange's actions may or may not be tied into his character or personality as a person nor may they be of relevance to the actual actions in and of themselves. If you are going to refute the release then your appeals should be stemmed from the content that it pertains and are not empty appeals or attacks on pseudo-related factors.
