    Probably the U.K. government if you count the 90s

      Why would you not count the 90s?

    Who has committed more terroristic acts in its existence, Hamas, or the UK government?

    Probably Hamas since the current UK government has only technically existed since the start of this parliament. Just over a year.

    Or do you actually mean hurr Durr UK bad hurrr durr?

      So UK because palestinian children are being bombed by there 1940-2025 colonization effort also known as Israel. The only thing they have in common is that just like the USA and Canada their colony is finally getting rid of the native inhabitants through genocide.

  The year is 2025: Morph is now the unofficial face of nationwide rebellion.

  LOL I would love to see Yvette continue to defend this craziness. What a moron.

  I hope we start seeing Morph’s face being used as the icon of protest instead of the V for Vendetta mask. We definitely live in the more ridiculous timeline.

  Just wanna say (the obvious) that this is not normal at all. I’m from greece and we have protests like every other week or so over various places

  It is really wild and dystopian to arrest people for protesting for palestine, what is going on over there…?

    Technically it’s nothing to do with Palestine itself, you can protest that fine.

    The issue is the group Palestine action, which the gov declared a terror group because they wrecked some military planes, and we have a law forbidding the support for declared terror groups.

    An overreaching dumb law applied badly by m a way to overreach even further. I admit this is not much better than arresting Palestine protestors directly, it’s a pretty thin cover…

    There are protests all the time, it’s Palestine Action (an organisation) specifically that the government is taking issue with.

    After Palestine Action damaged business known to be owned or worked in by Jewish people (not all of whom expressed support of Israel), attacked a policewoman with a sledgehammer, drove a car through the wall of a factory with workers inside, had a leader that has expressed support for Hamas, and broke onto an RAF base and destroyed the engines of two jets, the government had them classified as a terrorist organisation.

    That means that any support of PA is illegal, even if you’re not involved in anything PA does. Some people think that is an overstep.

  Yes, appropriating a call to end a genocide to protest generated content is pretty ridiculous. Cruel, even. And complaining when your appropriated symbol is mistaken for the original is asinine.
