A budding and vocal DNC personality with access to all the information which was gathered gets murdered at 4AM in the streets in a 'botched robbery', someone who championed Bernie, and was in a position to out how Clinton (and the rest) stole the election from him and you believe that to be a Russian narrative. Problem here is, if you ask 1000 people who Seth Rich is 999 of them would say, who? So to say that affected the election is simply bizarre.
This stupid conspiracy theory couldn’t be more debunked. Not only does it make no sense, it’s been investigated and denounced as nonsense from dozens of organizations and professionals.
But that’s the thing about conspiracy theories: they’re unfalsifiable. Any journalist or publication or investigator or law enforcement agency or intelligence agency that disagrees is now part of the conspiracy.
Let’s play it this way: what evidence would thoroughly convince you that Seth Rich died in a simple botched robbery instead of a sprawling international conspiracy?
I don't know about that. Assange alludes it was Seth Rich (calls him out by name) and says:
"Whistle blowers go through significant efforts to get us materials and often significant risks. There's a 27 year old who works for the DNC that was shot in the back, murdered, just two weeks ago for unknown reasons as he was walking down the street in Washington..."
Right from his mouth, not Russian propaganda - unless you're suggesting Assange himself is a Russian propagandist. It's a very interesting interview regardless.

That's exactly what is claimed about Assange; that at least in regard to the 2016 election he has acted as a willing agent of a Russian propaganda operation.
