A black-and-white stencil-style illustration of the Statue of Liberty reimagined as a punk icon. She wears a studded leather jacket covered in anarchist and punk symbols, including an anarchy “A” and a skull pin, with the word “PUNK” painted across the chest. The dripping paint effect gives it a graffiti aesthetic. Her torch burns above her, and the text “THE ANTIFA FOUNDER’S GIRLFRIEND” appears in stenciled letters tilted across the top right, blending political satire with rebellious street-art energy.

I wonder if you can use labellers from other sites here. Though presumably bsky can ban those too unless you’re using an alternative AppView.

I know this is uncomfortable to admit, but there is a small area in England's second city where people are just not integrated with the rest of society. Many of them hold views that arguably go against British values.
