A primary way institutions become oppressive/violent is when they turn from using their collective power in life supporting ways to using their power to protect and expand their own existence and influence. An interesting article appeared yesterday and I posted on my journal. It is a fine piece of journalism looking at the political philosophy of Julian Assange behind Wikileaks. It is a really interesting point of view to understand.
