Sometimes all I can do is stare in awe at the power and efficiency of the imperial propaganda machine. When I first started this gig in 2016 Assange had way more support, from Berners, Greens, Trumpers, all across the spectrum. Now a large amount of that support has been eroded.

Here's a Trump supporter saying it's okay that this administration is persecuting Assange because Assange is a CIA asset and they need information from him. Like I said, the imperial narrative management machine is truly impressive.https://twitter.com/DrStefool/status/1191508345766731777?s=20 …

They're lining up to give me examples. Here's another Trump supporter arguing, on no basis whatsoever, that UK is acting alone in its persecution of Assange. For the record the US extradition request is the sole reason for Assange's continued imprisonment. https://twitter.com/ModernStyleFW/status/1191509538769375232?s=20 …

Here's another worthless Trump supporter who just popped up in my mentions on another thread. The "MAGA" crowd like to think of themselves as distinct from standard GOP partisans, but they're increasingly indistinguishable from Bush Republicans. https://twitter.com/SimJoeMoore/status/1191512907571499008?s=20 …

They're not all like that in fairness. Some are asking the right questions.https://twitter.com/LeonardBruce14/status/1191510930644967435?s=20 …

More propagandized insanity. AGAIN: Even if Trump were actually trying to free Assange in exchange for information (and he isn't), compelling a journalist to give up a source under threat of life imprisonment would be unforgivably evil and fascistic. https://twitter.com/markjohnt2/status/1191524685772550145?s=20 …

Here's an "I oppose the Trump administration's extradition agenda but I'll actively facilitate the smear campaign which led to it" hot take from a Bernie person. https://twitter.com/BenjaminHyle/status/1191556729273815042?s=20 …

Highly newsworthy? Maybe? Did Assange personally collaborate with the son of said white nationalist on releasing those stolen emails? Definitely!

can't imagine why Assange didn't support Hillary in 2016. I mean, there was that time she said, "can't we just drone this guy?" but c'mon, it was a joke! As if things like *that* actually happen!!

It seems to be most Democrats are de facto agents of the Republican party. The most efficient & reliable ones, partnered with MSM, put Trump in office. They will do so again if they refuse to pay attention to Main Street.
