All around this world. If something happens to Oda or One Piece I will blame them for ruining it.

Hey, my friends. Demonstrations are the right of every citizen in a democratic country. You can hate them, but you can't stop them from using pirate flags or something. After all, they're protesting structural injustice in their country. I personally have never been involved in demonstrations, but I respect their voices.

Although I do feel like the cast of one piece would agree with standing up to your government
For those who have never read One Piece as a masterpiece, they might only see the Straw Hat Pirates' flag as cringeworthy. But they don't know that the flag carries a message of peace. You know how Luffy and his friends adventure in every oppressed country and ultimately liberate those countries from tyranny. That's the moral message the demonstrators want to convey.

"We come to bring a voice of peace that wants to free our country from tyranny/systemic corruption that has killed people without knives."

Getting a bit too political, I fear.
If we really care, we'll continue to resist, and we should leave things at that.

We’re talking about kid who punches people. You befriend that kid, give him food and he’ll punch the main boss to oblivion.

Well, you're only seeing one side and turning a blind eye to the other. I don't deny the existence of anarchist protesters, but oftentimes, their anarchy stems from the arrogance of the authorities (especially the police, who are supposed to enforce order) and the government's indifference to "listening" to the people. Violence is never justified, but perhaps for some, it's a way to express genuine pain. Furthermore, many protesters remain orderly. So, you can't generalise protesters as anarchists.

This is a crazy take to have. Absolutely disgusting, do you not even care about other people?

It also has been argued that some anarchy stuff that is done by 'anarchists' are done by the government itself to mark the protesters as mere 'anarchists' to shut them down.

I'm not surprised by that. Even the UN recently attempted to investigate police violence against demonstrators in countries.
