How is this any different than the US or any modern western country? Most people here don’t have files with the FBI or tortured by cops despite hating them and the US. A lot of internal deep state shenanigans in western politics and media try to follow the rules to create parallel investigations and rationalize their own behavior. Sometimes they will make up evidence like with Corbyn or Russiagate, other times they just slander people like Snowden, and other times they just give up investigations because they don’t have anything to reasonably justify it like with the Chinese professors accused of espionage while still maintaining academia has a Chinese spy problem.

This isn’t even mentioning the prison system where humanity seizes to exist. And, they DID make up evidence against Andor because he looked rudely at imperial agents which is why he was imprisoned in the first place lol.

They didn’t just forbid a protest. They literally committed a massacre because of a kid throwing a rock during an otherwise peaceful protest. Surely you’re aware of the history of Palestinian resistance? Hell, the protest itself was actually a funeral, which was directly stated by the producers to be inspired by the IRA funerals, which several were shot up by British and Loyalists. And they were not police. They were psychopathic private contractors who are outsourced to do the empire’s dirty work of crowd control, torture, maintaining occupied territory. These all sound like things a despicable empire would commit and should be resisted.

Have you lived in the modern west? It’s run by little Eichmans, not big Hitlers.
