Not where I live. If it's happening where you live then it's a sign you need to start protesting/organizing/get involved in politics/using whatever skills you have to improve matters before they get worse.
This happened in the UK, specifically, and from what we've all seen it's definitely sliding in a bad direction over the past decade. But it's also not in any way so far gone that you can't take action. If you're sitting here on HN complaining and yet doing nothing else, you're a part of the problem. Stop being complacent, take action before it's too late. You won't get thrown in jail for getting involved in politics there (yes, you'll find some specific examples of that happening but if you look deeper they'll all unravel and show there was a deeper reason that's being misrepresented, usually by tabloids/social media).

- tjpnz 5mo agoPretty sure the courts ruled it wasn't. But they're still arresting people for saying "I support Palestinian Action" in public.

- somewhatgoated 5mo agoBtw in Germany the courts ruled that From the river to the sea as parole itself is not unlawful. The arrested person got acquitted. Hamas and its symbols are illegal however.

- trumpdong 5mo agoDidn't they also arrest a guy for writing some random Arabic on a flag because Hamas also has a flag written in Arabic?
- somewhatgoated 5mo agoIdk did they? Who knows man a lot of stuff is said on the internet that might’ve or might’ve not happened
- asdfsa32 5mo agoThe least goated take. While it is good to give the benefit of doubt where it is due, there is a line where it starts to taste like shoe leather.
- somewhatgoated 5mo agoSo the goated take in your opinion would be to just believe that a guy in Germany was arrested for writing random Arabic letters that kinda look like the Hamas logo without any proof or sources because it fits a certain narrative? I’m not saying it’s impossibleb but there should be some evidence for such a strong claim
