The UK’s Counter Terrorism Police have released a disturbing advertisement depicting a white teenager facing police seizure of devices and a potential criminal record simply for sharing a link he found “funny”—content, we are told, was later deemed terrorist material.
This move, part of the broader Prevent anti-radicalization strategy, underscores the UK regime’s push to police online activity among youth, framing it as a gateway to extremism while ignoring surging real-world dangers from mass migration.
In the ad, a teen laments: “I just got all my device taken away by the police… My mom couldn’t believe it. I might get a criminal record and not be able to go to college.” He then explains: “I only shared a link. I just thought it was funny, but it was terrorist content.”
Counter Terrorism Policing describes itself as “a collaboration of UK police forces working with the UK intelligence community to help protect the public and our national security by preventing, deterring, and investigating terrorist activity.”
A recent academic analysis in the Journal of Policing, Intelligence and Counter Terrorism highlights the escalating involvement of family courts and Prevent in childhood radicalization cases, noting “the number of children referred to Prevent and Channel due to concerns that they might be at risk of, or from, radicalisation has been steadily increasing since 2015.”
It adds that professionals like teachers are “legally obligated to refer that child to the police under the auspices of Prevent” if suspecting risk.
Government guidance on Prevent duty in schools urges communication with parents to spot signs, but also empowers referrals if family members show vulnerability. As one factsheet states, referrals can come from “a family member, friend, colleague, or a professional.”
Lovely. Turning in your own family members to the authorities for wrongthink. Where have we heard that before?
This monstrosity echoes the “Pathways” video game we previously exposed, funded by the Home Office, where teens are warned they’ll be referred to the same Prevent anti-terror experts for researching immigration stats or protesting cultural shifts.
In that game, engaging with videos on “Muslim men stealing places of British veterans” ramps up an extremism meter, labeling such concerns as ties to “illegal” groups.
It’s also part of a broader curriculum overhaul, where the Labour government embeds “critical thinking” to spot “extremist content and misinformation”—code for aligning with establishment views on open borders and globalism. Kids analyse articles to “differentiate fabricated stories from true reporting,” but only through a lens that deems migration critiques as “fake news.”
Also recall the teacher branded a terrorist threat for showing Trump videos in a U.S. politics class, referred to Prevent after students claimed emotional distress. The educator called it “dystopian,” highlighting the program’s weaponization against conservative ideas.
While ordinary Brits face this hellish surveillance net, the regime welcomes actual extremists with open arms. Prime Minister Keir Starmer celebrated the return of Alaa Abd el-Fattah, who praised Osama bin Laden, denied the Holocaust, and called for killing Zionists and police, labeling it a “top priority.”
In addition, dangerous terrorists like Zahid Iqbal, convicted for plotting to bomb an Army base, get early release despite warnings.
And Shahid Butt, jailed for conspiring to bomb the British consulate in Yemen, is now standing for election in Birmingham, urging Muslim youth to “learn to fight” against “disbelievers.”
Meanwhile, the crackdown on free speech intensifies. The government has threatened a total ban on X over Grok’s image generation, with Kier Starmer raging it’s “disgraceful” and “all options on the table.”
People continue to be arrested for posts deemed to be ‘dangerous’.
Luke Yarwood got 18 months in prison for two tweets viewed just 33 times, ranting about migrant hotels with no real impact.
And Lucy Connolly was threatened with a return to prison after already having served a year long sentence for a tweet, after she shared a joke post that suggested “Could Trump come and take Starmer like they did in Venezuela.”
This is state-sponsored fearmongering, diverting resources to suppress dissent on borders and identity. As terrorism fatalities from Islamist ideology dwarf those from any other group since 2000, the real extremists are those eroding Britain’s freedoms.
