Canada did the same. It's depressing seeing them all cave to Trump's demands of the week. It only guarantees there will be more demands next week.

Getting something in writing and signed by Trump isn't worth much. He'll still change his mind and tear it up next week.

You again? Last time I came across you, you were being racist too. Your username is racist. Is racism just a hobby or a full-time job for you?

They're calling these people terrorists for holding signs calling for the end of Israel's genocide. They're not calling the people who have been committing genocide every day terrorists: they're valuable allies. This is the UK Government's morality. I hope it's not shared by the British people.

What's with the suggestion that they're injuring people at all? Has it happened?

Israel has killed 70 healthcare workers in 50 days. And they've been doing this for years, every time claiming it's not a deliberate policy. The world can see what Israel is, and its words are worthless.

I seem to remember he took a poster off the wall to keep as a souvenir, so they killed him. Don't touch the posters, people.

No one is immune to a concerted propaganda campaign. American propaganda has just been a bit more extreme than most, for a bit longer.

The investment in demonizing scapegoat groups does seem to pay off for the far right. It helps them sell their own ideology as a solution for people's woes, if they can convince people their problems are caused by the designated scapegoats. It effectively distracts people from the plunder of their lives by rich kleptocrats, while filling them with the kind of misdirected hatred that fascism thrives on.
