I find this very concerning that people protesting a genocide and display flags of terrorist organisations is somehow a worse crime that the actual genocide itself.

It doesn’t make sense when we have musicians being held to a higher standard than countries and our own fucking government. Makes me want to fly a Hezbollah flag myself. I would argue flying the Union Jack is supporting terror around the world. The same as that Yankee flag.

Edit: Ive just got out of surgery with a GA so will reply to these once I feel human again.

    Because it gets attention on the issue?

    Waving a Palestinian flag might have the same attention without the connection with a proscribed terrorist group?

    I care that people and government are more outraged over this than literal tens of thousands of dead innocents.

    We can do both. The world isn’t and shouldn’t be a zero sum game. Both should outrage us.

    And that we support genocide as a country.

    We shouldn’t support them. Sickening that so many countries do.

    Furthermore, I’m not sure I feel comfortable calling a resistence group terrorists if we don’t give the IDF the same label.

    Many do.

    Are we going to arrest the Brits who went to fight for the IDF.

    Maybe we should.
