The story at that link is about 1 month old, but someone posted about this mural on Reddit yesterday.
Thoughts?

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

How is this related to the UK?
That’s where London is traditionally found.
Teach us your ways, oh wise one.
Well, one of them anyway.
mural is in london
I don't want to mass respond to all the replies but what I meant was:
Edit: missed the word "not" from my first point
This is such a nonsensical take. It's art. Just because we don't have the same system here doesn't mean people don't understand or shouldn't have opinions on it. Do you listen to American music? Watch American TV programs or films? If so, why? They transpose politics from the States and therefore should be avoided.
Everyone, no matter where they live, is entitled to their opinion. Even if it is nonsensical.
It's pretty much the 2025 equivalent of a Che Guevara t-shirt/poster
So what dude? Just because you don't like or understand it doesn't mean other people shouldn't. He's become a symbol for of rebellion for millions of people across the globe.
Che Guevara. Luke Skywalker. Robin Hood. Guy Fawkes. Neo. Katniss Everdeen. Joan of Arc. Fucking Moses FFS. All figures of rebellion. All standing up against oppression. All now considered heroes. Luigi Mancioni is now one of them. Just deal with it.
Ok, I feel like we've both explained our positions here. Let's agree to disagree.
No. You must agree with me.

Thank you for ending the debate humourously. I'm so sick of having debates on this forum where my interlocutor gets all up in their feelings and spurns any sort of olive branch from me.
Social media has made mad men of most of us, unfortunately.
