I do. Emrys Feb 2024 #31

Julian requested and was granted political asylum by the country of Ecuador. justaprogressive Feb 2024 #32

And in April 2019, Ecuador rescinded Assange's asylum and revoked his Ecuadoran citizenship. Emrys Feb 2024 #33

Payoff. justaprogressive Feb 2024 #36

The revoking and rescindment are facts. Emrys Feb 2024 #37

And they rescinded it, which is Ecuador's absolute right to do so, MarineCombatEngineer Feb 2024 #44

not exactly justaprogressive Feb 2024 #45

Oh jeez... that's not true... LeftInTX Feb 2024 #58

Assange is an Australian citizen. He's not a political refugee. He's not being persecuted. He's being prosecuted. LeftInTX Feb 2024 #65

You mean the FAKE justaprogressive Feb 2024 #47

How the fuck dare you dismiss allegations of rape as "FAKE"? Emrys Feb 2024 #52

I didn't dismiss them justaprogressive Feb 2024 #55

Calling them "FAKE" is absolutely dismissing them, and is disgraceful. Emrys Feb 2024 #56
