- The One Piece pirate flag, first used in Indonesian protests, is spreading across Asia and beyond as a symbol of youth resistance against injustice and authoritarianism.
- Inspired by Indonesia, protesters in Nepal, the Philippines, and France have adopted the flag, representing freedom, defiance, and a growing movement against corruption.
- Experts note social media amplifies the flag’s spread, fostering international solidarity and reflecting a deeper shift towards social justice and democratic ideals.
The thing that most people, including this article get wrong is that this isn‘t really about social media. I mean yes they organized the protest over social media and yes they are upset about a proposal (that has since been withdrawn by the way). It‘s an aspect of it but they are upset about a range things including high unemployment rates among young adults which is why they continue to burn buildings. At this rate they‘re provoking a military coup.
