For all the struggles facing the democratic world, it's nice to know there is a stream of justice that prevails.
In certain other large counties, this man would either be protected or jailed depending on what party he aligns to. Sure, you can say the same for USA, but with far less immediacy. Over time things tend to sort themselves out.

- lmm 4y agoTell that to Assange.
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 4y agoAssange assisted with criminal activity. It would be cool to see it argued in court but somebody seems hell bent against examination.
- justinzollars 4y agoHe showed completely innocent Iraqis getting gunned down. Yup, criminal guy there.
- rootusrootus 4y agoSo the ends justify the means? That's what you want to run with?
- justinzollars 4y agoHe's a journalist.
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 4y agoHe's quite petrified of court for a journalist.
- justinzollars 4y agoI am petrified of the empire as well.
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 4y agoYour bias is showing.
- slimebot80 4y agoTrue. But again, Assange isn't without a voice and some level of due process. Compare that to being vanished, and/or having your family roped in.
- trompetenaccoun 4y agoA lot of the money that was lost came from institutions and some public funds as well. Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, BlackRock, Circle, Sequoia Capital, Binance, SoftBank,... SBF is a crazy character, he somehow must have thought he was above it all. If he'd done what all these finance companies do, scamming the little man, he'd probably still be free. Alex Mashinsky yet has to be arrested for example. And people like Vladimir Tenev aren't even prosecuted, many of them get off with a slap on the wrist.
- boplicity 4y agoDon't feel bad for Blackrock/Sequoia/Softbank etc. These are professional investors, yet they invested in a finance company that didn't even have proper financial sheets. To let that slide is pure negligence, and, frankly, should put them on the hook for the monetary loss from the FTX customers.
