I didn't know Linehan had his knife in Julian; but if someone had asked me for my prediction, I'd have pointed out that Assange is like catnip to an evil nutter, and reasoned accordingly. For example, where Trump is concerned -- evil nutter par excellence, given that he has -- I mean is -- three personality disorders piled one upon another -- we see that his attitude to Assange and Wikileaks turned from positive to negative once he himself switched psychodynamically from naughty child (outsider seeking power) to chastising parent (insider wielding power). With Linehan and his obviously collapsing mind (no, I don't know anything about the little shit or his life, and don't want to), Assange was always going to freak him out by way of eroding the boundary 'legitimate knowing'/'illegitimate knowing' -- thereby being the ultimate naughty child who will burn the place down by making public all the things that the parents do in secret. Since the latter possess a hugely sexualised aspect -- provoking in the nosey little child a combination of immense curiosity and enormous guilt -- what could be more inevitable than Linehan immediately flinging around the accusations of sexual criminality?
