#2This reads like a hit piece. They're lambasting Wikileaks for not understanding some obscure triple parenthesis nomenclature? They're anti-semitic because they're not plugged into the anti-semite culture enough to know their jargon?
That three parenthesis thing was news to me. It seems weird that people would brand themselves in such an obscure way. I guess Twitter handles can't have Unicode ?

#3I made the Official Third Jewish Temple.
God talks.
Ask Him about the Holocaust. God's world is perfectly just. Do the math, retard-nigger.
The nigger brain cannot understand what a NIST legally certified random number is.

#4That particular tweet falls under the "never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity" razor, which kind of undercuts the rest of the author's (fair, but quickly sketched) points.

#5I hope WikiLeaks moral high ground and/or credibilty are never huge factors. Their releases should probably always be treated with trust-but-verify disposition. Or maybe distrust-until-verified.
The way I look at it, WikiLeaks is basically a parallel construction. We have no idea how or where the info came from, but if it's a map to the bodies, we go there and see if it's accurate info.

#6No it hasn't. The DNC leaks will be remembered as historic. I talked with the protesters in philly, and the vast majority had pro-wikileaks signs or were pro-wikileaks.

I doubt whoever runs the wikileaks twitter account was unfamiliar with the history of the 3 parentheses thing. The 3 parentheses people are not doing this to overcome unicode issues.
Also who knows who runs the wikileaks twitter account. I find that a little creepy.

Seriously. Can someone please explain what this means/comes from?

This was a fairly big meme in media and political circles: http://www.theverge.com/2016/6/3/11853244/google-chrome-exte...
> Yesterday, Mic reported that a Google Chrome extension called "Coincidence Detector" was creating a database of Jewish people in order to notify users when they were reading the work of, or reading about, a Jewish person online. The extension placed three sets of parentheses (a symbol used by neo-Nazis) around certain names to identify them as Jewish. Now, one day later, Google has pulled the extension for violating its hate speech policy, Engadget reports.
Has the triple-parentheses ever been used to signify something previously? Kind of hard to believe that the Wikileaks Twitter account used it coincidentally: http://twitter.com/gallopingcats/status/757527227798003712/p...

A bunch of the people attacking him, "ironically" were putting the parentheses in their names, and Assange was trying to find the pattern. that understandably upset some people, since it was meant to be a malicious "pattern", but that was neither his fault nor sufficient cause for a bunch of people to just straight up lie about him.
After he got called out on it he went into damage control, I mean seriously it would really compromise his mission to out of the blue just make an intentional overt anti-Semitic remark.
