    Lmao I can’t fucking believe how deeply propagandised americans are. Memes like “The CIA award for excellence in journalism” exist for a god damn reason, and yet you people still parrot this shite. It’s emblematic of just how deeply engrained the civic religion is. Even doing so on the topic of bloody aliens.

    It’s completely fucking absurd. Go ahead and tell Julian Assange that you can legally do things the US military doesn’t want you to do and nothing will happen to you. Fuck me socialist youtube influencers like Second Thought get their doors knocked by armed goons from homeland security asking about their “unamerican activities”.

      If the CIA was the cartoon supervillains you seem to think that they are, then Assange would have been hacked to pieces with bonesaws or drank some polonium tea ages ago.

        He’s been imprisoned for over a decade why the fuck would they do that? They got what they wanted the day he was forced into house arrest hidden within an embassy.
