View submission: Suspected Campaign from Russia on Reddit
I have no support for Putin, he's an even more dangerous authoritarian than Trump.
I support transparency in governments, and unless claims are made that the leaks are fabricated I will support and encourage their dissemination.
Information is the only tool citizens have to secure democracy, and I do not want to see true information suppressed regardless of the originating source.

Depends on if the information is presented as unbiased and fair as possible. Right now you're redistributing what their interpretation of the information is, and they muddle their intentions. From the start -
A detailed analysis and processing of such an amount of material will require a lot of time, knowledge and definitely more than one pair of eyes, so I'm dumping this here.
Slowly shifting down to the end point -
Based on the content of these documents, we can now imagine what a terrible price Britain will have to pay to conclude a free trade agreement with the United States - from betraying partners and the interests of own citizens to betraying her national policies.
This is not a call to investigate and figure out this. This is leading whoever is reading that to a conclusion that the original posters have already determined.
If you're really for transparency, and want to simply share the report - I would sanitize the thread and report from their conclusions and remarks - start fresh, and start open. Especially in light of the current finding against them - a suspected russian operation. As it is currently, it's pretty sketch you're jumping to immediately recreate their subreddit.

What do these people have against transparency?
Attack the source? Okay fine. Is the leaked information correct? We will never know as its censored, because Russia!!!
So are we going to censor r/sino?
Or is this selective enforcement?
