Let's see ~~NATO~~Wikipedia over here...
Idk man, seems pretty planned-out to me...
Right, I'm sure the US had nothing to do with the charges that Sweden was trying to file. I'm sure that Ecuador let him hide in the embassy since 2012 for no good reason
First of all, whataboutism and ad hominem (specifically about 'privilege'), second, 7 years is a lot, if you can compare it to Jeffery Epstein's sentence deal of 1.5 years (18 months)...
Honestly, outside of politics, Assange should've prbly been held for trial for that, in Sweden, NOT in America. Also, when did he decide to push conspiracy theories (I never heard him support Qanon)? And well, I kinda think the Russia collusion here is more of a post-hoc justification for the U.S to get him so...
Critique me if you want...
