Yes

Worn a hoodie?
No

Played music in a park?
No

Been part of a protest march?
Too many to count

You do not have to be young to be opposed to these Orders. It is part of a broader program of repression which affects us all, of whatever age.

Never been a "stoodint" either, but good luck with the campaign.
