I thought he was like one of the most important whistleblowers of our time exposing war crimes and shit. Some of you don’t wanna see him live another day, why is that?

      Are people ignoring leaks? Calling for Assange’s death? I haven’t seen that.

        Yes? What the hell do you think happens when everyone downplays everything negative happening to him? That he gets taken more seriously?

        What do you think happens if he gets extradited to the many places that want to throw him in jail or worse? Is his life not forfeit even if it’s wasted in a cell instead of snuffed out on the spot?

        Humans are beyond pathetic when it comes to thinking through to the consequences of your actions. Do better.
