MODERATORS
See - this is the thing with people going on about how its so oppressive in countries outside of "The West" where they will arrest people for insulting their king on Facebook or some shit.
We are no better. I'm not American but Britain does the same kind of shit. Read some declassified police case files, the cops pick on weird shit on people's phones.
I've been in Britain before, they didn't check my phone
And even if, a meme about someone in the UK government would also not get you denied entry.
it would allow you entry
Most likely.
"It says here you are a terrorist, but on your phone there's a really funny meme about Starmer, so I guess it's all fine."
And this is just for insulting the king's jester.
