 Stop acting like an idiot just because you want to fit in. 
 Then you're not acting like one, it's just the natural brain configuration 🤷‍♂️

 Bro, they like him. And they're free to say they disapprove otherwise the 17% would be dead. They might not he allowed to say anything against the war but they free to answer polls and they're not killed or jailed for voting for someone else. 
 Really idiotic choosing Spain, it's full of Russian agents there. Probably was pretty easy finding him, took them like half a year, probably found him earlier and they waited for the perfect moment.
And the guy had a pretty special looking face, hard to hide that head 
 I'm sorry for Navalny but that's enough,
IT'S NOT OUR FUCKING PROBLEM.

Putin had an approval rate of 83% amongst Russians in December.

Stop talking about Russians like they're captive retarded children, 83% of Russians want wars against their neighbors and want dead opposition leaders so let them enjoy their shithole world.

Don't worry dear media, we're gonna kill the fuckin' Russians if they come to get us but enough with Navalny.

I want to see Assange on our media's first pages. Let's deal with our freedoms first.

 Well, Germans really liked him for a while, he made Deutschland great again. Then they got destroyed so they didn't like him anymore. 
 A reminder that the British Justice (lol) system is trying to slowly kill him first, as a service to their American masters:
Assange, is in a high security prison, locked up 20 to 23 hours a day, with prestricted access to books, lawyers, visitors. Bin Laden would have been treated better probably.

 Declassified UK:

As we break for lunch, some of the US prosecution's key arguments:

- US prosecution cannot be political; it has been pursued by numerous US administrations

- Assange not being prosecuted for his political opinions, and he is acting in bad faith

- CIA plots to kill or kidnap Assange not admissible; the indictment has been handled in a legitimate manner

- Assange's activities go beyond ordinary journalism and into criminality, so he cannot be protected under ECHR articles on freedom of expression

#FreeAssange 
 Cannot be political part is hilarious  
 Beautiful 🙄
