There will be no indignation at the BBC, or the Guardian, or CNN at Julian Assange's fate. And that is because these journalists, politicians and experts never really believed anything they said. They knew all along that the US wanted to silence Assange and to crush Wikileaks. They knew that all along and they didn't care. They are not there to represent the truth, or to stand up for ordinary people, or to protect a free press, or even to enforce the rule of law. They don't care about any of that.

They don't want an upstart like Assange kicking over their applecart. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
