Forum Post: This Matter about Manning...

This matter about Bradley Manning suddenly becoming Chelsea Manning has me bothered. Not that deep down Bradley Manning wants to be women. If that is truly what he desires, kudos to him. But I can care less about that. What Manning wants happens to be only incidental to my concern.

The thing is Bradley Manning has been, and in all likelihood is still being, tortured. He is a person who has been beaten; psychologically reduced to a vegetable state. He’ll now say anything his captors want him to say. His last statements at his sentencing proves the point. The last words he spoke we so different from when he first spoke up. They were not the words of a popular hero who exposed the most repugnant war crimes of a government in recent history, but were the words of a person in total submission. The words he spoke were not his words. They were the words of his U.S. government captors spoken through their newly made puppet.

It was thus they, the government, who said Manning wants to be a women. Manning’s lips were only moving. And they, the government, would oblige by turning him into one. Now does that make any sense? After the government went all their way to punish him; to torture him into submission, and gave him ump-teen years jail time. How could it be they would suddenly find sympathy to tend to some personnel disposition of his for a gender change? Ridiculous! They’re out to torture him more. Now with needles, injections, and other psychological what not, they are going to turn Manning into a hormone mess. They are embarking on a human experiment as chilling as what Dr. Mengele did to his jewish patients some sixty years ago. “Yes that will teach all those whistleblowers out there, especially them gay whistleblowers,” I can hear them say as one flies over a cuckoo nest. Chilling. I shiver.
