💨 Abstract

The Irish rap group Kneecap has been banned from Hungary for three years due to allegations of antisemitic hate speech and support for terrorism, specifically linked to their advocacy for Palestine. The Hungarian government's decision followed a performance at Glastonbury where a band member called for rioting. Despite denials from the band and police dropping a previous investigation, the ban stands. Kneecap criticized the ban, stating it aims to silence critics of Palestinian oppression.
