Once branded an “extremist” with a penchant for bile, Alaa Abd el-Fattah is now being carefully repackaged as Britain’s newest misunderstood martyr. Despite a trail of incendiary and antisemitic posts, including claiming “Zionists are out to get me,” we’re supposed to believe this is just a poor soul caught in the crosshairs of injustice.

Because nothing says accountability like rebranding yourself as the real victim the moment consequences start knocking.

🎩 From Firestarter to Teacup Revolutionary

This isn’t a redemption arc—it’s a media rehab job that makes Love Island contestants look low-maintenance. One minute, Fattah’s thumbing out rage-soaked screeds about Zionists. The next? He’s posing with politicians and waving the “free speech” banner while the British government tiptoes around his past like it’s a diplomatic landmine. 🧨

And now? He feels persecuted. He feels misunderstood. He feels the burn of being labelled, judged, vilified.

Well, Alaa… welcome to the very club you helped build. The same cancellation culture you and your defenders often cheered is suddenly a lot less fun when the spotlight turns on you, isn’t it?

It’s rich watching someone who weaponised rhetoric like a sledgehammer now cry foul when others quote his own words back at him. If we had a pound for every public figure who screamed “out of context” after posting vitriol, we could probably fund an NHS hospital wing—assuming we had beds left in it. 🛏️📉

The true irony? The same people who crucify British teens for schoolyard idiocy are now writing Guardian op-eds about how we need to “understand the nuance” of a grown man’s venom.
