FFS, you couldn't make it up.

Two news article headlines, one saying the UK police have launched criminal investigations into 2 bands at Glastonbury for criticism of the Israeli government's actions in Gaza, while the other states that another Israeli strike kills at least 20 Palestinians at a seafront cafe. The juxtaposition is surreal.

@lexicaleigh I’d snapshotted the same combination of articles but you beat me to the post. While I don’t think that wishing death on anyone is part of a civilised society neither is the behaviour described in the other article. We have very little sense of perspective.

Criticizing evil is extremely illegal in many Western countries.

@lexicaleigh "Appalling Man being investigated for Calling out on Genocide .. Meanwhile the latest Genocide figures sees the IDF & Israel add 20 more targeted innocent kills (so far today) in Gaza.."

US, UK, Australia, all #COMPLICIT in the ongoing genocide.

@lexicaleigh

This guy suppose IDF soldiers are war criminals and made a judgement “Death to IDF” I guess you support this position.

I suppose all Gaza “activists” are HAMAS activist as no another political force there. And they are dreaming about wiping out Israel and killing all jews. Can I say “Death to HAMAS”? Do you mind? Is it justified?

The ideal solution is to stop wishing death. But I see at least your part is inspiring by it indeed

@lexicaleigh This is not about HAMAS. This is about the Palestinian people who are being wiped out by a rogue state that has powerful friends who have too much influence in the free world. Criticising the rogue state is not an act of racism. It is a political critique.

@lexicaleigh the choice of picture as well is killing me. They had to look long and hard, because Bobby is always smiling so wholesomely, they probably did frame freezes to find something that fit the 'threatening #black man" narrative.

@lexicaleigh He technically could have violated a law on the books, but it's a BS law that doesn't belong there. More, pretty much all common-law courts follow some version of the 'reasonable man' doctrine. As in, what would a reasonable man make of a given act? I don't think a reasonable man would make of it what's being implied by this threat. But given recent vagaries in UK govt, law, and jurisprudence, I won't make bets.

Screenshot from a phone of two consecutive toots from BBC news. The top one links to an article about a person having to investigate their own abuse because of police failures.
The lower is a story of the police launching an investigation into the performances at Glastonbury by Kneecap and Bob Vylan.
