Neither.

They’d have buses shuttling in OAPs until the minimum was met then shut it down.

I got arrested on terrorism charges for holding a sign that said ‘I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action’, in Parliament Square. Our government is pushing to reduce the amount of court cases that are tried by jury because the public generally agree with environment and anti war protestors’s motivations.

The government’s proscription of Palestine Action was deemed an over reach but they are appealing the decision. So I am currently still considered a terrorist by our government. How is it that you can think the UK can look down on any other country in this regard.

God demands equal justice!

Maybe. But mostly it just looks like the boomerang effect.

Shocked. I am shocked. Shocked I tell you.

It was clearly fascism when Project 2025 was leaked.

Which goes to show that one of the mightiest weapons against the oligarchs turning the people against each other is the teaching of critical thinking in schools.

That’s why this cultural virus attacks teachers and coups education boards. The pay off is these automatons believing that there is a direct mirror between the egoless Dredd having the ultimate power to end a criminal’s life within the boundaries of a harsh but ultimately unprejudiced set of laws and their own prejudicial bloodthirsty fascism that constantly corrupts the law to suit their ingroup and individual needs.

Not to be overly Comic-book-guy but:

Judge Dredd is never portrayed killing someone for his own gratification in 2000AD. He isn’t racist, or to my knowledge, even a classist.

Yes, he is a ‘judge’ in an ultra violent society that devolves execution, due process and investigation to the officer on the beat.

But no one is above the law as far as he concerned not even the judiciary. There probably isn’t a president of the US that he wouldn’t have arrested for their crimes, and quite a few he’d execute for their crimes against humanity. Trump wouldn’t have made it to this millennium.

These ICE thugs are just cowardly fascist scum. Law is just a weapon of suppression to them. For Judge Dredd the law was sacred and the only thing preventing humanity from eating itself in his post apocalyptic future hellscape.

Yeah, I think most people underestimate how vicious hungry wild animals can be.

That’s a design feature.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles is most instructional in this regard.
