Not sure what internal prejudices or twisted reasoning I have about my own country. I certainly don't know what it has to do with Trump.
My concern is that countries will ship people to a country they've never been to for things like drug crimes. The standard for what's wrong is going to change in coming decades, and countries that thought it's normal to extradite people for things like drugs are going to find themselves opposing extradition for things like illegal speech, etc.
And there are various charities that send things like birth control or abortion pills to women who can't legally or safely access them. I think if we saw incidences of people being extradited for mailing birth control, most people would agree it's a huge overstep.

- akadruid1 6y agoThe US attempted to extradite a British citizen for copyright infringement that wasn't an offence in the UK. The British government approved the extradition, although he finally reached an agreement that allowed the US to fine him and remotely monitor him. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_O%27Dwyer https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_O%27Dwyer
