Socialism!No thanks. I don't need any free assange.
RUSSIA!!
I'm not a fan of Julian Assange think he's a colossal douchebag but i also don't think he's committed a crime.
Wikileaks was a significant partner of Russian intelligence over the last ten years and Assange actively fomented chaos globally while protecting authoritarians. It's a weird guy to rally behind.
Very good point.
Just to add, can any of the Pro Assange boys point to when he unleashed his “freedom promoting journalism” on an authoritarian regime, like Russia? Gee, why is that? Is it because there isn’t any corruption in Russia? If Assange is so concerned with free and fair elections by Clinton and the DNC, why hasn’t he ever looked into Russian elections?
inconvenient truths for the Assange crowd.
RT has been frequently described as a propaganda outlet for the Russian government and its foreign policy.RT has also been accused of spreading disinformation by news reporters, including some former RT reporters.The United Kingdom media regulator, Ofcom, has repeatedly found RT to have breached its rules on impartiality and on one occasion found it had broadcast "materially misleading" content. RT's editor-in-chief compared it with the Russian Army and Defence Ministry, and talked about it "waging the information war against the entire Western world." In September 2017, RT America was ordered to register as a "foreign agent" with the United States Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Under the act, RT will be required to disclose financial information.
Russian studies professor Stephen F. Cohen stated in 2012 that RT does a lot of stories that "reflect badly" on the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and much of Western Europe and that they are "particularly aggrieved by American sermonizing abroad."
According to Lithuania's STRATCOM Colonel, "RT rarely takes a single, anti-Western media line on any given story. That would be too obvious. Instead, RT journalists present gaggles of competing and contradicting narratives which together create the impression that the truth is indecipherable".
