WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange faces what could be his final court hearing in England over whether he should be extradited to the United States to face spying charges.

“Julian has been indicted for receiving, possessing and communicating information to the public of evidence of war crimes committed by the U.S. government,” his wife, Stella Assange, said. “Reporting a crime is never a crime.”

    Working with the russians at Russian Today (a known propagandist channel) is not a crime, but it shows everything you need to know about Assange.

    Assange is a piece of shit hypocrite. He was more into the aesthetic qualities of being an “anti-US contrarian” as opposed to a journalist (real journalists don’t work at Russia Today) or a human rights activist (Assange definitely doesn’t care about the millions whose lives were ruined by the russians).

      If assange wanted everyones support, he shouldnt have made his outlet so crazily right wing.

      It started out more neutral, but when you do things like not release the RNC emails after releasing DNC emails, then youre agenda is clear and youre not the “pure source of information” or whatever he thought he was

      You don’t seem to care about the millions lives ruined by american imperialism. Zelensky is also defending Israel but i do not wish anything bad to ukranian, russian and israelis civilians

        What does this even mean?

        My country is being invaded by the russians for 10 years now, the vast majority of them are genocidal imperialists. Why should I care about them?
