Dear @ClassConscious1 - as revealed by Snowden's #JTRIG documents ideology is the primary attack vector for splitting solidarity in social movements. Ideological attacks on a non-ideological movement play into the hands of the state you claim to oppose
Furthermore - branding anyone you disagree with ideologically a Nazi or a fascist is yet another known tactic of the state intelligence agencies. That attack vector was tried by the Guardian against the Anonymous movement in 2012, as I wrote about here: endarken.co.nz/critical-think…
The tragic @ClassConscious1 article accuses us of being opportunistic, yet fails to acknowledge @AssangeMrs has repeatedly called for unity across the political spectrum in support of her son. Attempts to impose ideology on a non-ideological movement fly in the face of her wishes
It discredits the entire socialist movement when the first major opportunity that everyday people have to achieve a massive blow against the system that oppresses humanity worldwide, is reduced by them to merely an opportunity to push, shove and jostle for ideological supremacy.
Unmentioned in the article is that the #Unity4J movement provides no-strings-attached, wholehearted support, solidarity & assistance to the @ClassConscious1 campaign efforts. For them to take with one hand while hitting with the other should be the cause of some self-reflection
The argument made by @ClassConscious1 was debated live at an event I appeared at with @AssangeMrs 2 days ago. Audience response made it very clear that it is past time we have a movement that is not hamstringed by politics or ideology. From 1:10:40:
That @ClassConscious1 are promoting an article full of attacks on #Unity4J as being "not an attack", indicates they know deep down what they are doing is wrong. Am sadly not surprised at all to see that the first attacks on a movement to free a man come from what should be allies

Statement: recent public smearing of me is just the visible layer of a coordinated effort to prevent me being able to work full throttle on #Unity4J as I was. There is multi-pronged interference in my life to stop me from having the required supports & resources to do what I do
This will be unsurprising to anyone who has ever done any significant organising. It's par for the course in this day and age, but just amped to the extreme by my own exile/circumstances and the fact that the person I'm trying to support/save is a known CIA target+++.
Donations help, though crypto is the only way I can receive funds (still) despite multiple efforts to try to get new funding channels none have yet come to pass. If you are confident using crypto, my donation addresses are at suzi3d.com/supportfund
Going forward, every #Unity4J online vigil will be immediately followed by a #Unity4JDay. Where supporters from around the world will undertake decentralised actions in support of @JulianAssange, @wikileaks, press freedom and human rights.
"Unfortunately, this all coincided with the privatisation of state intelligence functions. What that meant is that activism became an investment opportunity for private security companies, to posture activism as being related to terrorism..."
"...so that they could use counterterrorism resources and funding to target activists. That is unconscionable. Because terrorism laws post 9/11 & funding were being justified as something that would happen over there... in Iraq, in Afghanistan, to actual militants..."
"...with actual weapons, who are actually hurting people. Never once did they say, these are the laws & these are the funds that will empower private for-profit security agencies to target unarmed civilians. Not military, not army, not soldiers, not terrorists. Not terrorists..."
THREAD: Since I wrote 'Being Julian Assange' the follow-up has been slowly forming in my head. It is a manifesto for #Unity4J. It is called 'Freeing Julian Assange'
It is a treatise on mass movements: a formula based on past successes & failures, a guidebook for new activists..
..a narrative collection of wisdoms and hard lessons I learned covering mass actions on the ground & promoting them online, and a road map and a blueprint for #Unity4J.
I don't want this movement to be dependent on me; I accept that it somewhat is in the short term but...
...I have already been taking steps to ensure that it is not in the medium term or long term. Very positive seeds have been sown, but it is only by thousands and then millions adopting this cause of their own volition that can deliver humanity this win, and we really can win this
Some "journalists" connected to the activism sphere should be applying for a job at the National Enquirer (doesn't Trump have a mate there?) as they engage in what can only be described as gutter, tabloid "journalism".
Apparently I'm their next target.

There are rumours being seeded to people close to me who the provocateurs knew would surely pass them straight on to me, that DM's between myself, and @JulianAssange will be "leaked" to said gutter tabloid "journalists".

This is precisely what police operations do when they are going to raid someone's house. They leak the info to the target that they will be raided, ahead of the raid, to see if the target will run around trying to hide things, or who they will talk to.

I am watching so many incredible things occur in front of my eyes on the new #Unity4J non-violent digital army organising platform that I have to make this thread to share them with you.
Secondly, we now have a full team of translators, translating @Unity4J content into 18 languages: Arabic, Bisaya, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Galician, Gaelic, German, Italian, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Serbian-Croatian, Somali & Spanish!

Thirdly, our Research team is currently compiling lists of every religious organisation, academic institution, and union on the entire planet, so that our new Outreach team can lobby them to support freedom for @JulianAssange!
