  A symbol of freedom is only seen as a threat by those who know they are against it

  The Straw Hats accidentally getting involved in overthrowing a real world country would be some pretty funny lore-accurate nonsense, I gotta say

  I love that the Straw Hat Jolly Roger is simultaneously a symbol that’s a threat to enemies while also being silly because it’s wearing a straw hat.

  Indonesian has habit to use anime and movie term in a form of protesting government before.<br>We use &quot;Konoha&quot; and &quot;Wakanda&quot; when criticise our own people

  I’m Indonesian, and I wouldn’t say we use it as a form of protest. We use it just to mock our government because of their recent policies that have harmed a lot of people. But it turns out they’re actually afraid of it and take it seriously.

  Here are some of the recent ridiculous policies:<br><br>1. The government will block bank accounts that are dormant without transactions for 3 months.<br><br>2. Land with certificates can be taken over by the state if it&apos;s not used for 2 years.<br><br>3. 1,000 inmates freed, including those convicted of corruption.<br><br>4. Music played in public venues like clubs, bars, cafes, and street-side spots is taxed per seat, with an annual payment required, and this applies to nature sounds and animal recordings as well.<br><br>They are actually many more, but they really require detailed explanation.

  If the &nbsp;government stated that One Piece flag as a symbol of treason, the only one who betray first........<br>Is a government itself

  Because &quot;One Piece&quot; so accurately depicts what&apos;s happening in Indonesia, especially the shamelessly corrupt government.
