They should honestly have just banned him from the platform years ago. This is the least that misleading bullshit like that deserves.

And you have the front to post 'free Assange' as your avatar. You have no shame David. But I and others see througn you and know your game. Beware Nicksters. All is not as it seems.

Lmao, this coming from someone who supports the administration that’s currently seeking to extradite him. Not saying Biden will be any better, but how (to borrow a term from your side) cucked do you have to be to support the guy who’s actually doing it?

Oh, so Trump’s going to come in and save the day, is he? Just like he’s been doing for the last 18 months while Assange has been slowly dying in solitary confinement? Seriously, mate, get a grip. Trump has never in his life given a shit about anybody but himself, and you can be sure that Barr and the rest of his cronies will continue to get free rein whether he’s in for another two months or another four years.

I have to say that it never fails to just fill my heart with joy to see that the cause I care about is at least 50% made up of tinfoil-hat wearing cranks, but I guess you can’t choose your allies. :roll: Anyway, you might find this piece by my fellow CIA/ASIO/deep state asset Caitlin Johnstone enlightening:

What brand of pre-conventional fundamentalism do you follow?

There is nothing 'free' about deceiving people by systematically flooding their field of perception with lies. That's actually the definition of brainwashing, not informing, reasoning, arguing or legitimately persuading. And its commission has nothing to do with moral principles, rights or values, except in contradiction of them. Arguing hard and pushing the envelope with passion are one thing; lying incessantly and compulsively without check is another.

The puerile cliched version of 'free speech' is the pimply teen libertarian belief that just won't die. In psychology, wilfully manipulating people in such a way evidences a dangerous Machiavellianism, not some sort of moral attainment. Indeed, if any other government or leader set about trying to act in such a systematically deceptive and subversive manner in order to manipulate an election they'd rightly be deemed totalitarian, and their use of the term 'free speech' as Orwellian double-speak.
In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

Is this the right room for a conspiracy?

We should all care deeply about the terrible things that have been done to him. The flagrant abuse of and outright denial of lawful treatment to an individual would have been a scandal in Hitler's Germany.

But Assange is such a 28-carat arrsehole that it is really, really difficult to give a toss.

Unfortunately I think that sums up the state of things (not that I agree that Assange is an arsehole; I think that he has many admirable qualities. But I do agree that that’s how a lot of people see him, and unfortunately far too many people nowadays confuse personal virtue with political principles.)

No, this is "abuse" - you want to head down the corridor, first door on the right....
