Ah it's referring to a particular organization, Palestine Action
You cheer for censorship when it aligns with your beliefs. Yet call the slippery slope a "fallacy."
See what happens?
Just because your argument is fallacious doesn't mean the conclusion is wrong.
"Black people are hot therefore they should be treated equally" is an example that I can immediately come up with.
This really is a big part of it. A lot of Democrats weren't upset about authoritarianism & fascism, they were upset it wasn't their version.

Well. You'll just have to write it somewhere. In paint perhaps. Maybe on a government building.
Isn't this the group that broke into a military airbase and damage several aircraft resulting in million of pounds worth of damages? I mean the security breach and the intent to maliciously damage the equipment is more than enough grounds to label the group as a terrorist group. If a right wing group or any other groups did this, everybody here would be calling them terrorists, and rightfully so. It makes sense for the UK to label this group as such, especially since they didn't disavow the attack that happened.
The people who are trying to frame this as an attack on free speech are either full of shit and intentionally spreading misinformation or they're ignorant enough to get their information from people who are full of shit and intentionally spreading misinformation. This is something that clearly has nothing to do with free speech.

Is this really to appease Trump (maybe as part of the 10% tariffs)?
