The United Kingdom has reached a new low in its war against patriotism, with police arresting activist Ryan Bridge this week for the alleged 'crime' of displaying his own country's flag in public spaces.
Bridge, founder of the U.K.-based group Raise the Colours, was detained Tuesday by Thames Valley police on suspicion of 'causing racially and religiously aggravated harassment' - for hanging Union Jack flags against local council orders. Let that sink in: flying the British flag in Britain is now considered a hate crime.
This is exactly what happens when woke ideology completely captures government institutions. The same country that once ruled the seas and defended freedom across the globe now arrests its own citizens for displaying national pride. Meanwhile, you can bet those same police won't lift a finger when actual criminals wave foreign flags while demanding Britain bend to their will.
The Globalist War on National Identity
What we're witnessing isn't just about flags - it's about the systematic destruction of national identity and Western civilization. When patriotism becomes 'intimidation' and love of country becomes 'aggravation,' you know the fix is in.
This is the same playbook we've seen deployed across Europe and that the radical left tried to implement here in America. Thank God we have President Trump back in the White House, because this could have easily been our future under four more years of Democrat rule.
The fact that displaying your own country's flag can land you in handcuffs shows just how far the globalist cancer has spread through Western institutions.
Bridge's arrest sends a clear message to British patriots: love your country, go to jail. Meanwhile, the same authorities who consider flag-flying 'harassment' bend over backwards to accommodate every other group that demands special treatment.
Americans should take note - this is what happens when you let the woke mob capture your institutions. The UK is showing us exactly where the radical left wants to take every Western nation: a place where patriotism is criminalized and national pride is treated as a mental disorder.
How long before flying the Stars and Stripes becomes 'intimidation' in Democrat-controlled cities?
