Pro-independence is offensive

This is the kind of garbage that justifies being (and wanting to be) independent.

Imagine a society where freedom of the arts isnt allowed and a few complaints will get you DQd from a competition. Were in it.

I'm just offended by the fact that people keep fucking up the meaning of V for Vendetta/Guy Fawkes by acting like it's something to aspire to.

V really isn't supposed to be the "hero" of that story any more than Rorschach was supposed to be the character you gravitate to in Watchmen. Americans completely miss the context and make Alan Moore sad.

Guy Fawkes is basically a fuck-up that the British have spent 400 years making fun of, not a champion of Truth, Justice, and 4chan-approved Freedom.

Not according to the group holding the competition.

same article you linked to
The organization claims it had been receiving complaints regarding the cake's design, with some attendees "threatening to damage the piece." Cake International also denies censorship accusations, saying the cake was not removed from the competition for its political design, but was simply removed from the "competition area." It further claims that while the cake was ultimately disqualified, this came as a result of other factors, namely that part of the design hung over the "allowed area."

Also apparently the cake was inedible due to glue used on it to keep the pieces together and that was also not allowed.
