"Why not ignore such events?"
Because then (when mass protests are simply ignored) the "Russian disinformation" about UK not being precisely a "democracy" suddenly starts looking true?
If you have no protests, it means that the public is ok with what the government is doing. In a democracy (whatever one understands by it) that is.
- Caracas288 5mo agoI’m assuming here the government isn’t inherently altruistic, and that citizens have to fight for their rights rather than simply be handed them. My question is, what is the reason that more restrictions on protest are being brought in now specifically (ever since the Extinction Rebellion protests); is there a deeper motive. If there is, I don’t know what it would be.
