1. His one mistake was supporting terrorism.

2. Stop giving these cretins attention

3. Lovely stuff

4. Very much enjoying the knots people are tying themselves in being upset about this whilst also arguing that the Tory bint who posted during the riots should be in prison.

5. This is just giving them what they want. These guys are middle class children cosplaying as terrorists. They are out to generate controversy and idiotic hot takes and its working for them. Ignore them like we can now ignore Martin McGuinness

6. This is quite amusing considering the amount of UDA and UVF flags that are flown in NI.

7. Weird how UDA flags and Israel flags and military graffiti litters NI and the fact the orange pond matter burns Irish flags every year but the week after they criticise Israel they’re in shackles. Make no mistake as to who’s behind this

8. This will backfire and only make them bigger.

   Which will be delicious.

9. The people over on r/kneecap are having a fit right now, how can you in any way try to justify parading a terrorist flag?

10. I wonder if he’s got a guilty conscience?

11. I hear Kneecap are shedding their negative image and changing their name to Nutsack

12. Waving a flag for a few second is “terrorism” according to the British state, media and politicians but directly participating in genocidal terrorist acts is completely fine and totally normal 🙄.

    This is a deeply racist society.

    Kneecap exposed the double standards.

    Keir Starmer literally advocated starving children – an act of genocidal incitement for which he should have been charged for under UK law.

13. I think especially in the context of this being at a concert, I’m not really a fan of this being a legal matter. Obviously it is inappropriate and may be representative of their actual beliefs but performance art has always been edgy, even if this is shit edgelord kind of stuff.

    FWIW I disagree with the Connolly sentence as well.

14. Supporting Hamas and Hezbollah is psychopathic.  Good, fuck around and find out 

15. Dickhead who listen to dickheads will do dickhead things, they should be charged

16. The UK is a fucking joke.

    Keep flying the flags of the genocidal Israel though.

17. People got to remember that these guys are the establishment no matter how much they try to act like it’s not the case. Fuck em.

18. Anyone got a link to the video mentioned?

19. Israel licks bum bums

20. Weird that he he is being charged now, incident happened 6 months ago. Seems a bit suspect.

21. Why is it a crime to show a flag? Offensive probably, but a crime? Sign of a fascist state

22. Gonna start prosecuting fuckers flying UVF flags daily in NI then? No? Shock.
