I believe some people have already seen this on their feed, and some of you who are living in Indonesia have seen it in your neighborhood.
Now I'm not here to talk about the bad condition of Indonesia because frankly I'm not that informed on it. In actuality I wasn't even aware of it until now.
Instead I'm just here to talk about the sheer absurdity of it all. The absurdity and seriousness of it.
One Piece is big. We've known it for over a decade now, 1000 episodes and with over a billion active followers. It's clear it's big.
Yet now it shows just how big it is.
Now some folks who might not understand the symbolism of it, it's quite simple to explain.
The Strawhat Jolly Roger (skull flag) is the symbol of Monkey D Luffy's crew. The One Piece World is a totalitarian state and the main antagonists are the government.
Luffy and his crew fight for Liberation and freedom and are the government major threat.
So in the One Piece World, the flag of the strawhats, Luffy's crew, is a symbol of hope and liberation. The same symbol that the youths and people of Indonesia are flying.

What's even more insane, is how the government is taking it.

They really aren't trying to beat the allegations 😭😂
I really do hope Indonesia wins this battle...
And for anime fans, this just proves that one piece reigns supreme ✨👒
