Julian Assange, nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 and Ross Ulbricht have demonstrated that the USA is following the same practices as communist countries like russia and china! They prosecute anyone who opposes them, no matter of what!

Plot twist: America has been a communist country for a very long time.
You can't really compare the three.
Assange and Snowden didn't allow people to run trade on drugs, weapons, child rape + porn, or murder.
But Snowden did work for a company that did a couple of those things.
UK is involved and complicit. Moral high ground of free speech of so called west is lost if Julian is not freed.
And that's the truth.
I think Assange probably should get proscuted for endanger people by not redacting documents ... but the prescedent of using the Espionage Act, esp. for a non-US citizen is really disturbing.
