"Despite what you're told on the two-way telescreen, we are not okay with what our government is doing. Our government has gone completely rogue. They don't represent us. We do not share its enthusiasm for blood. We're disgusted by it.

Like you, we just want a peaceful and fruitful life with the hope of a better future for our children. We want joy, peace, love, and the liberty to fulfill of our dreams. Obviously, our government doesn't represent these values because we are not in charge of our government. It's in charge of us.

...We stand with you - our human brothers and sisters - for peace, liberty, and justice against this global threat."

To recap: Hastings was a journalist for Buzzfeed and Rolling Stone who did a major piece on General McChrystal (that led to his resignation) and has written other articles harshly criticizing the Obama administration's use of drones and the NSA scandal.

Since his death in a car crash early Tuesday morning, Wikileaks has gone public stating that he reached out to them for legal help and now this from the Huffington Post.  Hastings had a lot of enemies in DC.  His death needs to be thoroughly investigated, but I am sure it won't be.

"Activists and concerned citizens around the world have had enough with corrupt corporations censoring their right to know what’s in their food, and frankly they’re beyond upset.
