One of the obvious way to "free Assange" is to kidnap him from custody, say, during transfer to court or to airport if he will be extradicted or some other way.
But looking into different comment sections and social media I didn't find a single post with such proposal.
Same thing with jailed J6s, or any other persons wrongfully (from the supporters point of view) detained.
Only "call your representative", "protest near some gov building", "share this video", "lets crowdfund best lawyer" and so on. In the most extreme case it is something like "we will use our guns if they come for us".
Interesting, that there was same thing with Navalny, here f.e. Nobody of his supporters ever proposed or tried anything about real disobedience. Even theoretically. Fuck, nobody even proposed to just bribe him out of jail, which was not something impossible taking in account millions of $ his supporters collect and received from NGOs and curators.
But there was a lot of proposals in social media in Russia to forcefully take out of jail prisoners like colonel Kvachkov or other jailed patriots. AFAIK, there even was one real attempt to free one russian nationalist, but court moved date, so ambush got nothing, was exposed, but guys was lucky to flee, so security measures was strengthened.
Also, there was very strange (for me) videos when bus with Navalny supportes, arrested during protests in 2021, occasionally stuck on roadside during transfer of arrested to the place of 15-day detention, and arrested helped to push it from the roadside dirt, and then willingly get back on board. There was only two guards and driver for 20-30 people. None even tried to somehow resist.
At the same time, in 1993 during failed attempt to defeat Yeltsin when he illegaly seize power from Russian Parliament which was highest authority in the country, people fighting on the side of Parliament arrested by police who obey Yeltsin, just seize police buses when amount of people collected in bus become larger than amount of policemen. This busses then used for barricades around parliament building and seized police equipment distributed among Parliament defenders. Being there, done that, survived without any consequences. Things ended badly with shooting Parliament building from tanks by Yeltsin forces and shooting at people by snipers from roofs, including roof of US embassy, but that ability of people to stand against malicious authorities is undisputable fact.
So, why, civilian "western leaned" rebels or sympathizers not only show absolute obedience to the authorities, but even theoretically never propose anything that could be accounted as civil unrest or active resistance with the goal to really "free Assange" from hands of obviously evil authorities? Is it some kind of faith in justice system or something?
Even taking in account that kidnapping is not very realistic, it at least not less realistic than that some politician or judge will pay any attention to vox populi somehow. There are lot of people who support Assange out there and want him free. Just out of statistic there should be at least some calls for taking Assange out of custody forcefully. But I don't see even three-letter-agency provocateurs proposing this. Like it is some global taboo for everybody.
Why is that? There should be some reason for such difference.
So, did you do it? Was it you?
