Comment on Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free

  @Zoldyck is not lying.

  Look up Assange and his connection with Israel Shamir, who helped Lukashenko’s regime in Belarus target opposition activists.

  This wasn’t a mistake, he knew what he was doing.

    Sure he had some shady connections, but all accusations of actual wrongdoing by Assange himself were brought forward, sourced and verified by US authorities which makes them basically worthless.

      Sure he had some shady connections, but all accusations of actual wrongdoing supposedly comitted by Assange himself were brought forward, sourced and verified by the same US authorities, that employed or protected the criminals he exposed, which makes them basically worthless.

      Opposing the Lukashenko regime is being a criminal?

      I get tankies and right-wingers, they actually know what Assange is about.

      But allegedly well meaning people thinking that he is some sort messiah or saviour, that’s what’s sad.

      He is a genuine supporter of russian imperialism and he has no qualms with sending opposition activists to hellish prisons, all the while positioning himself as some sort of fighter against US imperialism.

        Nah dude, your brain is cooked beyond saving if you blame Assange for what the russians decide to do with public information. Not even worth responding to this schizo level response tbh.

    Then prosecute him for that. But the US doesn’t care about activists, does it? Why do you think US is after him specifically?

    What about, what about, what about?

    Post the actual proof rather than a link to a wikipedia article.

    You do BETTER.

      The Wikipedia article is a good starting point if you wanted to actually get an alternative perspective.

      But you don’t.

  Regurtitating the same talking points your government uses for people that reveal its atrocities are “bots” no matter how you spin it. There are tankie bots and you are a wankie bot.

  Tell us more about how revealing war crimes and global surveillance are traitors, bot.

    Try looking up the definition of the word bot. You might learn something today.
