The other day an ordinary blue-collar guy peeked out of his window and looked around, then he shared a desperate Facebook-post in which he resented that all his neighbors were hoisting the Palestinian flag from their windows.
One would think you can do this in a democracy without any negative consequences. But not in London! Around two hours after the guy shared the Facebook-post, two policemen in uniform showed up at his apartment to arrest him. He was handcuffed and dragged away. So this is where the UK, the West and democracy are standing today.
