Giardinieri di Mastodon, Io vi invoco!

Il mio prezzemolo sta maluccio, vengono sempre questi puntini bianchi e un pochino stringe sul giallino... Di cosa si tratta? È una malattia? Forse il sole è troppo forte. Ora l'ho portato dentro e ho limitato l'acqua (magari ne davo troppa). Consigli?

"Government [of U.K.] confirms it will ban Palestine Action group under anti-terrorism laws"
theguardian.com/politics/live/…
Of course. The government of U.K. has a very strong stance in active support of genocide, so speech against and taking direct action against the weapons used for genocide can not be allowed in England this year of 1725.

So there is the correct answer to the poll that I tooted yesterday, although that poll is just about to close.

a man yelled "britain first" while slaying a sitting MP in the streets of England. Britain First was never proscribed.

@scaramanga Well, see, Britain First is a Fascist organization with explicit expressions for Nazism and for mass-murder targeting Muslims, LGBT and other marginalized people, which is in line with the main contest line of all the major parties of the U.K. which is which can be the most repugnantly racist in as a policy public without losing those who still have morality and humanity, from which comes their active support for genocides...
...I write as if you didn't know, while extremely probably you do, but I'm angry (to be clear, not at you) so I wanted to write it anyway.
in reply to b9AcE is anti-fascist

To the Guardian piece's rhetorical question "Guess which the UK government calls terrorism" which I made into a poll here, of the 39 respondents 0 voted "Israel kills innocent Palestinians" and 100% voted "Activists spray-paint a plane", of which the latter was the correct vile answer, as we got the answer just recently before my poll closed. 🤮

@martinvermeer That is also accurate and the shorter redefinition that I have brought up in many conversations,
but the point of that picture was to make it similar to and contrast with the definitions as seen in Merriam-Webster's and similar,
so the verbosity was intentional to make the similarity more apparent.
in reply to b9AcE is anti-fascist

I get it. Was being tongue-in-cheek. Of course my proposed definition is non-unique in that in can be substituted with communist, groomer, antisemite, and what not.
in reply to Fucking bitch Martin Vermeer

@martinvermeer Of course, I understood it as such.
The actual shorter current redefinition variant, which is very similar to what you wrote, which I have brought up in conversations is something like "Someone persons currently in power dislike", as that is the limitation separating when it actually has redefining effect and has relevant impact from just some random nut declaring something like "ooh, those bicyclists, they're all terrorists" or something similar but nobody cares.

"Palestine Action documentary makers fear being criminalised under anti-terror laws" theguardian.com/film/2025/jun/… as the knowingly actively significantly and personally co-culpable right-wing Starmer-lead regime in a direct assault against the foundation of the very concept of democracy seek to prevent the general public from being shown that Palestine Action under no reasonable person's understanding of the word do anything actually reasonably describable as "terrorism",
but instead do what is the moral imperative for any person able to, and the legally required minimum for that government itself to, act against an ongoing actual genocide.

"UK lawmakers approve ban of Palestine Action as terrorist group" reuters.com/world/uk/uk-lawmak… in spite of the group never having done anything regular people or by comparison to centuries of common practice would consider actual terrorism, but is instead clearly a ban solely for the purpose of silencing political speech opposed to the rulers' informed actively maintained and escalated pro-genocide, pro-war crimes, pro-crimes against humanity policies and actions, which are such that the rulers are in fact required by their own self-imposed rules ("law") to not just stop but also even to prevent, but they instead directly aid, protect and enable these violations.

Thought Police arrests to enforce pro-genocide opinion is now a thing in the U.K. under right-wing Starmer-led government,
as >20 people were arrested for supporting Palestine Action opposing the current Palestinian Genocide which the current government and its sibling Tory-opposition are all in on actively aiding.
reuters.com/world/uk/uk-police…
The Palestine Action group has consistently exclusively committed actions firmly within the recent centuries of established political protest, back to the Suffragettes and beyond, but now redefined as "terrorism" by the genocide-supporting ruling class, threatening the very foundation of anything claimable as democracy.
in reply to b9AcE is anti-fascist

I could fully understand this if it was just a few groups calling what is happening Genocide, but the UN and other well resected bodies are doing the same, including the UN raporteur featured in the talk video posted here. So what does Sir Kier have to say about that now.

If the UN issues an arrest warrant will the police execute.

in reply to Paul Sutton

@zleap My guess is that the reason Starmer, et al keep going to such exremes in support of genocide is the same as is probably the case in similar contexts and other locations, that if they would now stop aiding the atrocities, then that change of stance is an admission of themselves having been wrong previously and very probably that could be used to prosecute them for their after undeniably being informed actively significantly aiding genocide, crimes against humanity, systematic explicitly admitted intended war crimes, etc, so it's purely egoistic abuse of the police and political system.
in reply to b9AcE is anti-fascist

A court can take that in to consideration, you start off with good intention then something happens, or you learn new information and you change your stance,
in reply to Paul Sutton

@zleap Yes, but only up to such a point that the person(s) reasonably should be considered to already have been sufficiently informed, such as say for example by the ICJ, UN-experts, HRW, Amnesty, MSF, etc statements all strongly indicating consensus... I believe.
in reply to b9AcE is anti-fascist

Indeed, adn thanks I thinlk you summed up my thinking. I think starmer seems finished, not sure what standpoint this new political party will take, or if they will be clear on the matter.

UK government's decreed "terrorism"-labeling of non-terroristic Palestine Action is "at odds with [=in violation of] the UK’s obligations under international human rights law", says UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (too),
while as so many others already pointed out they "have not themselves engaged in any underlying criminal activity but rather exercised their rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and association".
theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

The government on the other hand, is actively knowingly arming and significantly aiding ongoing genocide, crimes against humanity,
which Palestine Action's actions highlighted, which in turn is extremely likely why they were actually banned, for pointing out the rulers' extremely probably severely criminal acts.

"UK: Peaceful protesters treated as terrorists as politicians fuel far-right activity

Thousands of police were deployed to London last weekend to arrest more than 500 peaceful protesters, as racist protests took place across the country. There is a relentless crackdown on foreign nationals, now including immediate deportation for any non-citizen convicted of a criminal offence. Critics warn that mainstream political rhetoric is legitimating and fuelling violent far-right activity.

On Saturday 9 August, British police officers arrested 521 people in London’s Parliament Square on charges of supporting a proscribed terrorist organisation.

The reason? Holding placards saying: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”

Statements such as this are now punishable by up to 14 years in prison, following the government’s decision to ban Palestine Action at the beginning of July."

The Guardian has updated their article with among other things that "About 300 people have been arrested at the largest demonstration yet opposing the proscription of Palestine Action."
Each one of them apparently with 3000 times the moral compass of anyone in the Starmer Gang.

The number of people arrested for demonstrating having moral standard increased even more: "More than 425 arrested as protesters defy ban on Palestine Action in London"

@Sofie_unlabeled For the latest 10-15 years the governments of Europe (and other places) have been in what appears to be some internally explicitly declared competition at which one can become the worst the fastest while duping the most of the people to believe that the rulers' putrid feces is actually their favorite dish.
