A message of solidarity, which when you unwrap it contains a subtle threat.
- stochastic_monk 8y agoHow subtle a threat is a death sentence?
- scrumper 8y agoIt's interpretable as a subtle threat to Yang. The message looks on the surface like solidarity: "We'll step up tensions over your arrest. We're on your side. Hang tight." But really, it says, "We have no issues whatsoever with judicial murder so keep your mouth shut." It's not like Canada is going to release her to get a convicted drug smuggler out of jail after all. Maybe it is not so subtle!
- tomp 8y agoWhy would they want to threaten her publicly, as oppposed to say through her lawyer? I'm pretty sure whatever message there is, it was mean for Canada, US and the world.
