The difference is that it’s illegal. Your government isn’t immune to this either.
In fact, European countries are actually more vulnerable to it because power is generally concentrated at the highest level. In the United States each state has its own courts, military, police, legislature, executor, treasury, etc. Just because the federal government is doing something illegal doesn’t automatically mean that the laws they’re breaking are meaningless. However, the U.K. parlament passing a law unilaterally affects the entire country.
Those are protest actions. So, yes, apparently you do need one according to your own statement.
Oh fuck I forgot this was about the U.K. Sorry. The U.S. has actual rights not just whatever parliament wants.
Lol. You’re delusional
How so
“The US has actual rights” is definitely the dumbest thing I’ve read all week, and that’s saying something because I have Twitter.
Come talk to me when parlament can’t just make expressing support for a group illegal. Or bans using footage of them in comedy shows.
I’m not saying that the UK rights situation isn’t stupid. But the US one is worse, just in different ways.
How so
They are literally imprisoning people en masse without due process right now man.

I do not live in the UK. I am in Canada. Legality is only relevant if it’s being enforced, which it is not. So your entire argument is irrelevant.
