    that’s devastating, on human rights day no less 🤦‍♀️

    hopefully he’ll be able to appeal this decision

    if he ends up being extradited this will be the biggest fuck you to journalism (and like basic human rights) worldwide by fascist pigs in the uk and the us, hopefully the british public will do something about it

        i mean an appeal to this appeal, even if it seems futile, they certainly won’t gain anything by doing nothing…

    My understanding is that the man is not a US citizen, and that he has never stepped foot on US soil. Considering those two facts, how can he be charged with espionage (at least within the US) at all? It was pretty clear from the beginning that the Swedish charges were horseshit and just fabricated to attempt to extradite him through a friendly government, and sure enough now that those have been thrown to the wayside they’re just trying a more direct approach.

    If Assange revealed the same crimes in China then he’d be getting a Nobel Prize right about now.
