Adam Jacobs 🇺🇦So according to the UK government, Greta Thunberg is now a dangerous terrorist.
I'm beginning to think the UK government may have lost its moral compass.
Very Human Robot@statsguy does she break the law in an attempt to enforce her political views?
(It shouldn't matter whether you agree with the views or not)
@StompyRobot The interesting question to me is not whether she is breaking the law (and I don't know, that's for a court to decide) but whether the law is reasonable in the first place.
Just because something is against the law doesn't make it morally wrong if the law itself is unjust.
@statsguy
The argument "we shouldn't obey or enforce laws we disagree with" has had a lot of problems in the past.
Changing the law to be better is obviously the best outcome!

@StompyRobot Absolutely. But since Thunberg doesn't have the power to do that, the best she can do is help to demonstrate how ridiculous the current law is.
