Watching this speech, I realized two things:  1) Why insecure and compromised Western governments can’t not go after Julian Assange, and 2)  Why those Swedish tarts wanted to get naked with him.   Heck, by 1:08 or so I wanted to have his baby.  I know the speech is long, but I heartily encourage everyone to watch it.  With a grateful h/t to Che Pasa: I laughed. I cried.  It was better than “Cats.”

The simple fact that what Assange is living in is a postmodern melange of Kafka and Stalin in the supposed 21st century “End of History” is sobering indeed, but hardly surprising, after what happened to Cindy Sheehan, the Dixie Chicks, Ashleigh Banfield, Phil Donahue, and on and on.  This time the Gulag isn’t part of some nebulous and scary foreign regime; it’s business as usual, and too many formerly “free” countries have taken to it like ducks to water.

Although I’m not ordinarily a pessimist (snort), I doubt this will end well; our overlords simply have too much to lose (and a heck of a lot to gain), by turning Assange into yet another example for the rest of us.  This speech, which is sure to cause conniptions from authoritarians the world over (I’m talking to you, Hillary, and your hair looks like shit, too…), and as such is a profoundly courageous act on Assange’s part.  It will also, most likely, land him in a show trial leading to permanent imprisonment in the (choke) “Land of the Free.”

When the US finally descends into its Orwellian miasma, this speech will be the first thing down the Memory Hole.  Watch it while you can.
