Really can’t tell if this is a bad astroturfer, or a person with poor reading comprehension.

I said the docs proved killing journalists, and Assange was imprisoned for it. As someone who is not a US citizen, nor does he live there, he is not subject to the US espionage act. Though he is not the only journalist the US has tried to impose that act on.

The US has helped Israel kill over 200 journalists in the past two years alone. Would you like a list of all their names?

Ad hominem

He is subject to it if he lives in or enters a country with an extradition treaty with the US.

You are moving the goalposts. This entire discussion has been about comparing the US to China. China arrests and kills their own journalists in their own country. That is the list I provided you. Provide the same for the US or admit you are wrong.
