As a Muslim living in France, I see the same trend here. They're criminalizing solidarity.

Lol support a protest group and they treat you worse than actual criminals. Make it make sense.

UK used to be about liberty. Now you risk jail just for saying you support a cause. Smh.

In Nigeria we have our own issues, but 14 years for speech? That's colonial style punishment.
