This is the guy that tried to affect the 2016 election by releasing everything he had on Hilary but nothing on Donnie. While I think press freedom is important, I don't particularly care what happens to him at this point.
"When exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime, you are being ruled by criminals.” ― Edward Snowden
It seems you are against Freedom of the Press and the 1st Amendment in general, so I would reconsider your way of thinking on this matter.
Especially when you are siding with politicial parties over the US Constitution.
Thank you for sharing your views!
There's a gigantic difference in what Snowden did versus what I mentioned about Assange.
Don't equivocate between them, especially when one of them is siding with political parties that are attempting to destroy the US Constitution.
I do not see it as a big differece between the two, it is just one has been smeared and propagandized against way more than the other, especially by US legacy media and politicial parties.
Similar to our duopoly, the Democratic Party (Republican Lite) and the Republican Party, they are much more the same than different; aside from the culture wars they love to get into, so as to divide the working class.
They are both whistleblowing against the US Military and continue to be persecuted for exposing US military war crimes.
Journalists and whistleblowers do not do what they do just because of politicial gain since we have a duopoly, they do it from what their sources find and can share, while also seeing what will have a big impact in our world.
I would suggest to do your own reasearch and look at independent sources when they about Julian Assange, I have learned a great amount once I started to that for everything.
We must continue to show empathy to fellow humans and not fall for the tribal thinking the duopoly and legacy media likes to push on us, the working class.
