Why does this accusation of rape override everything else that's going on in the world? You realize events happen outside of a vacuum, right? Like, that's literally your side's argument for not saying "all lives matter". Because of "context". So the "context" in this case is that he is facing a very real threat of extradition to the US for crimes COMPLETELY UNRELATED to ANY rape accusation, despite the fact that Assange is not even a citizen of the US.

So in one case your ilk will say "context is everything", while out of the other corner of your mouth you dismiss context when it's inconvenient for you. Believe it or not, there are real political machinations behind events that take place in the world.
