America is better because we can complain and it won't be the reason we go to jail.
They'll come up with another reason.

You sound woke! We have our eyes on you 👀

Well the reason in the UK is "supporting terrorism", not protesting.
Everyone has the same tricks. -
Protesting is fine and all, but if one person out of 3,000 coughs too violently, it's time to declare a riot and bring out the tear gas.

Sounds awful like a complaint to me. Get him boys.

Out of the loop, why is this about the UK?
-
As mentioned by another user it’s likely about the organization Palestine Action being designated a terrorist organization. This has caused about 700 arrests due to people protesting the designation of a group that never killed or hurt anyone as terrorists because they splashed some planes with red paint. Last time I heard an additional 60 protesters were arrested for supporting Palestine Action and officials said more arrests were likely coming.

Also for those who may have missed it: https://ukfactcheck.com/article/20/house-of-lord-member-lobbied-ministers-on-behalf-of-us-defence-firm-targeted-by-palestine-action
TL;DR: the US defence company Teledyne, whose factory was damaged by Palestine Action ("smashed windows, drilled roof panels, red paint, and smoke grenades"), paid off a corrupt member of the House of Lords to lobby the home secretary to proscribe them as terrorists, subjecting them to the same extreme anti-terror laws previously reserved for murderous groups such as Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, the IRA, etc.

Possibly something about recognising or supporting Palestine?
There's been a change where they consider that terrorism or something - look it up and don't take my word for it though, I'm in the wrong hemisphere

I can't do much except hope your government gets better. Best of luck fighting off all those """protecting the children""" laws, but if you can't (and let's face it, who can control their government?), I'll have a big stack of VPNs and torrent sites waiting for you if you need them.
(In victory I am merciful. Remember this, dear Briton, the next time you feel inclined to point and laugh at America for having a fascist government.)

Complaining about big things that actually matter is banned. But the usual banal complaining we do all the time about arbitrary things that anyone in a non affluent country could only dream of having as all their "problems"...they could never take that from us. Might actually be the only thing that would spark a revolution in this country, thinking about it
-
Me over in the US watching UK do this, and wondering when its our turn.
-
Rise of fascism.

Video is white supremacist propaganda

I am confused... Are you suggesting that the sort of people who wrote this song are seriously the ones who are being silenced? That its not the whole Free Palestine crowd being controlled, but you're suggesting that the government is censoring the xenophobic Nazis?
-
What in the ai slop I regret watching as much as I did but gave up at: "We don't need your legislation" "No legislation on" whatever it was
-
I gave up after the second line.
Migrants come across the chanel [sic]

The fucking gall to use a Pink Floyd song to spout this shit is amazing.
