Guns have useful legal purposes

Weapons are tools with only one utility, kill people.

We all share the same planet.

Maybe it’s time to share everything else. Why should we need to live in poverty while folks up north are living large?

Fuck them all rich countries. They got dirty rich exploring the global south and now want them to be condemned to be eternally poor.

I hope this POS lives enough to be jailed for the heaps of crimes he commited but I’m not holding my breath, justice in Brazil is slower than a sleepy drunk snail

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

no, I’m not

The competition is welcome

the 100% tariff enacted recently says otherwise

China cannot be trusted

just about as much as the USA cannot be trusted too

He was jailed in 2019. Are you telling me he still managed wikileaks from inside a prison in the UK?

Sounds instead like he realized he would never win the stalemate and was tired of house arrest

IIRC he wasn’t under house arrest, he was at an actual jail

He wasn’t in jail. He was in the Ecuadorian embassy. It sounds like you really don’t know the details here.

what? I did acknowledge that:

It was just a conjecture of how Assange might have thought about. I never said that there really is any link between him and Russia. And it was long ago, when he was still hiding inside Ecuador’s embassy, when the hypothetical link between him and Russia was new.

and:

In 2016 he had already spent years hiding inside an embassy. It’s not that hard to conceive that hatred tends to build over time.

Okay, but you said it was short-term. That is not short-term.

And as far as I know, Wikileaks is still very easy on Russia. So how long is this favoritism of his going to last?

I doubt he still runs wikileaks. Assange was in jail for years.

Why should that be what Wikileaks is about?

I don’t know and I don’t really care.

That really is not an excuse for his relationship with Russia.

The enemy of my enemy is a short-term ally, that might be how he thinks, who knows. I have no side in this fight since I’m not a Assange fanboy and I have nothing but contempt for the USA.

The man has every reason to hate the USA. Helping getting Trump to power would surely be some sweet revenge, since another Trump presidency will be undoubtely be divisive and harmful

America has plans for all our war with Canada.

maybe the White House burning down again would be a little humbling, who knows

…there is another one that recently allowed exploiting child labor, I’m told

Still haven’t seen it.

and you certainly won’t since you’re obviously not there, in Gaza

Who knows how many died because of this crap. The only word that accurately describe this action is evil.

“Republicans” and “Democrats” need to be thought of as far right and left wing center-right coalitions.
