Yes. UK is making itself a laughing stock arresting these peaceful, & often elderly, protestors trying to bring attention to terrible wrongs. Your wider point makes clear how broader harms arise from this ridiculous situation:
“Everything else aside, just such a dumb idea to devalue a term reserved for one of the worst crimes, make people stop taking the word seriously, and undermine the broad support for systems in place to tackle terrorism.”
Thanks for stating it so clearly.
Former Australian Greens candidate Hannah Thomas, who was beaten and arrested at a protest for #Palestine in #Sydney, sends a message from the hospital. She could lose vision in her eye forever. This is how peaceful #protests are being met.

Greens candidate Hannah Thomas was injured by police while peacefully protesting on public land outside a company that provides weapon parts to Israel.
A brutal use of excessive force has left Hannah seriously injured - needing surgery and risks losing sight in her eye.
The police and Minns government choose to protect weapons companies over people. SHAME
#GretaThunberg is calling me to activism. And you.
Let's speak up and out.
Let's demand responsibility from the cock-fencing, greedy egomaniacs in power.
Let's break the toxic cycle of manipulation, disinformation and consumption-as-a-pacifier.
Together. We. Can:
Create political and economical systems that serve the many, not the few.
Call to justice the polluters, war mongers, cockamaniacs.
Come together as a people to sow hope and peace and community.

The Velvet Revolution (1989, Czechoslovakia) and The Philippine People Power Revolution (1986) are proof of the power of peaceful mass movements.

How can I find more content on the protests in the US and around the world?
I want to endorse them so we don't need Meta to connect and share!
Please tag accounts, posts and #pedition about #NoKings #PowerToThePeople #PeacefulProtest and #ClimateJustice.
Let the world see how LAPD treats the elderly and peaceful protesters. It appears escalation and violence is the only response they know.

My local iteration of the #NoKings event went off without a hitch. Minimal confrontation, no violence, and an all-around peaceful event. The sign I had printed, which I carried around, now hangs on my bedroom wall.
Some photos:
Hubby ready to pick up the neighbors and head into Port Orchard! (I, sadly, have crowd issues and will be cheering from the sidelines)
Stay safe out there all my USA friends.
