Julian Assange rape apology LETS SMASH THE PATRIARCHY

Wanna do some Guerilla feminism to start off the New Year? I'm getting as many people as I can to sign up for tickets (as many as you dare from different email addresses) to this Pro-Assange rape apology fest, and then not go, so they are just addressing an empty room. Definition of peaceful protest, non?

Whatever Assange has or hasn't done, he is being kept without trial in the most appalling conditions. This should worry everyone. Civil liberties apply to all, not just those we approve of.

He should be charged and tried, or released.

The right to be charged - to know the charges against you - and to face a fair trial is a basic human right.

Those are tactics used by people who want to prevent legal, peaceful meetings and discussions they don't agree with. No thanks.

Absolutely.

Julian Assange is in prison. He is unlikely to ever be released. Why are you agitating to deliberately disrupt an event about freedom of the press?

Assange is a vain and horrible man; he doesn't deserve any (more) woke propaganda- anything that gets in the way of this is good by me.

You want to disrupt an event, where they are meeting to discuss press freedom?

Do you not think it might be more constructive to attend, listen and perhaps ask questions?
