I hate being lied to.

Aaron Swartz did not kill himself. Corporate interest wanted him dead.

Aaron Swartz was a man who fight against SOPA. He has become an internet matryr.

What source? Government was against this guy.

The mass media demonized him. Every news story is against him.

Aaron Swartz is responsible for Reddit.

I do not know too much if anything about him to be honest. But uhm, if the mainstream media said he killed himself then yea he was probably murdered.

I had no idea the mass media hated cats and reposted memes. Also Moot must have some kind of amazing anti-government security team if he's still alive.

Just stop with this kind of stuff. If you believe in conspiracies that's fine, but no one is going to listen to you nutcases that say the government is out to get everyone. People probably believed the same thing when the civil war broke out. The only difference is today's traitors are far to scared to act on their crazy notions.

A possibility, but unless you have compelling evidence, it doesn't mean much. The guy was known to be depressed/suicidal.

Like all theories it's a minor possibility. However with a lack of proof on your end, and with what little proof we have of the other end, we are inclined to believe that other end (as in it was suicide). He was arrested and known to suffer from depression too.

And yeah of course JSTOR didn't like him.

So you are just going to ignore all the signs of depression he showed, and the fact that he was in the middle of a court case that could put him away for years, and that the world sucks?

Do your damn research.

No, it's up to you to provide it if you want to prove your point. Telling someone to "do your damn research" does nothing to prove your point, is lazy posting, and the reason threads like this get locked.
