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

I can't tell if we got bots/shills but these assange threads are getting swamped with comments and voting.
Not sure if this real public sentiment or somebody is setting it for this "sensitive" topic.
Nobody can really properly state their position beyond, that guy is a rapist and russian asset... seems like an op tbh
Same old smear attempts that US has been using for a decade.
