The UK will always be a really interesting mirror to the US because it's better in some ways than the US but I feel like they are a few steps ahead of the US in terms of government control.

How dare they be against war crimes and crimes against humanity, the worst ones by far of our current century. Anyone opposing genocide is a terrorist and should be locked up.
For fuck sake... Make me wake up from this fucking nightmare.
"We started this genocide, and by Lizzy's cold pedophile-enabling corpse, we're seeing it to the end"
Wait, the planes weren't even damaged?? They just spray-painted them??? It would be bullshit to call it violence either way, but I assumed they sabotaged them in some way which I could at least see a fascist describing as a violent act, but Jesus Christ labeling an organization as violent and terrorist for one act of graffiti is truly beyond the pale.
Just to be clear sorry paint over flight surfaces is not something anyone flying can just ignore.
It is very able to bring down an aircraft if the wronge surfaces are stuck due to such paint. And most modern aircraft surfaces do not allow huge movement spaces. (Excepting some limited early stealth models that needed to grow at speed. But materials tech has hugely changed since early 60 when early stealth aircraft leaked fuel at take off)
Is it terrorism likely not. I at least cannot make an argument where tempory lack of 2 aircraft is a threat of terror.
But it is damage to the aircraft that requires funding to correct before use.
UK right now is giving me some serious Russia 2018 vibes (except even worse because this brand of authoritarian bullshit aligns with the US). I suspect if things go in this direction and there is no revolt of some sort, UK might start a dumb special military operation somewhere. Oh wait there are already helping to genocide palestinians. Maybe this is actually Russia 2022 vibes 🤔
Westerners whenever their countries do fascist shit: "this is something foreigners would do!"
I'm from Russia just for context. The playbooks are exactly the same down to the justifications ("protect the children" for destroying online privacy and anonymity, "terrorism" for arresting any unfavorable protesters).
You can't just arrest people because you don't like them, and going back to the gov labelling Palestine Action as terrorists, you can't just do that. What they did, vandalise government property, is not terrorism. You have to know the fucking terminology does not support the move.
Two unconnected marches organised by the Palestine Coalition and the pro-Israeli group Stop the Hate
Is this name ironic?
- 365 people
Imagine being a police officer. I bet their parents are so proud of them, them having passed the exam on their third attempt, now ready to put on the sexy fluorescent yellow uniform and patrol the streets on the lookout for degenerates with 5 g of weed on them.
Now they get to all line up in their big fancy lines and arrest 60-year-olds for being "terrorists", oh how proud their mothers must be.
I'd legit join if I was in London. How long do the arrests last?
Officers searched the bags of those arrested. In one backpack handled with blue forensic gloves, they uncovered some bread and a milk carton filled with water.

Does anyone have a good source on why “Palestine Action” is being declared as involved with “terrorism”? Seems like a completely bizarre situation.
Edit: some people broke into an air base and spray painted two aircraft. Sheesh.
