that's probably bad but he's hosed because the ecuadorians got sick of him and the libs in the U.S. won't rally to him (if that would even matter) because the feds say he played footsie with roger stone to help trump. and as far as the chuds are concerned, he's a spent bullet.

Interfered with the politics of allies, tried to mess with their HSM in the embassy, spoke out about Ecuadorian politics, didn't shower.

If you read that piece I linked he has a long track record of pissing off everyone who tries to help him.

A shame because wikileaks could have been a good thing.

He was granted Asylum even under pressure from Sweden, the UK, the US and in return was asked only to stop loving with ecuadors international allies' politics and not gently caress with the embassy systems. He spat in their faces, he's not exactly a hero

the easiest thing to hate assange for is that he is a sex creep that tried to leverage his political position to avoid having to face harassment charges.

the idea that going to sweden had a higher chance of getting extradited to the us than hanging out in the uk was always bullshit on its face.

his own bad decisions. i am entirely persuaded that had he just gone to sweden the case would have been dropped, and he would have run a far lesser chance of extradition. and, either which way, the justice system really should not take into account weirdo situations he managed to create by having powerful friends and political influence.

yea all the people super happy that this guy is getting turbofucked by the law are also the same people who disagree with me on every major political issue, so...

obviously he should serve his time for the actual crime he did, like the rape and everything, but seeing people go all :toot: WE GOT HIM :toot: is...troubling. being super hyped about anyone getting locked up is always kind of weird, short of them being a spree killer or something like that

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC



Can the swedish prosecutor re-open the case and charge him again?
