Or... he committed a crime and is being investigated as any normal person would. Assange isn’t the messiah, he doesn’t get to dodge jurisprudence just because some people support what he does.
This idea that defending his right to a fair hearing implies seeing him as a "messiah" or even as a nice person, is deeply disturbing.
Dodging jurisprudence, that's rich. His Swedish accusers were not even investigated for blatant evidence tampering.
If a normal person would face this kind of BS (not allowed to talk to lawyers in court, trumped up and dubious extradition charges), the then there is no justice.
You seem to be one of those people that still has not come to the realization that the whole system of western government has become inherently illegitimate in and of itself through its own actions and words. It leaves people like you still saying things akin to "well, the dictator did pass a law that he can apply to anything he wakes up one morning not liking" and it placates you, as the "laws" are meant to, by implying a sense of authority through process.
What should have really happened in a sane and healthy society and civilization, is that 1) the things the people that did commit crimes by stealing and handing over classified information, should never have had to do that because the system would have harshly punished the perpetrators of the violations they exposed with execution and, 2) it would have led to the prosecution of the people who were responsible for the information and systems that allowed the release of the information that was deemed classified, again, with execution.
But instead, we have a clearly broken and systematically rotten system that is violently persecuting and prosecuting the messenger, because they did not like that they were exposed as the evil people perpetrating evil they were and that their incompetence also led to that being revealed. What this is all about really, is vengeance for exposure, for embarrassment, for disclosure that the many little dictatorial emperors don't have any clothes on and are just LARPing with way too much undeserved and unearned money and power.
