added context:
Here is what Ben is replying to:
Pro-Palestinian protesters a part of a group called “𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧,” vandalized a historic painting of Arthur James Balfour at Trinity College Cambridge in England.
Arthur Balfour wrote the Balfour Declaration of 1917 when he was serving as the British Foreign Minister. The letter expressed Britain's support for a Jewish Homeland in what is now Israel.

I mean, heavily related and glorifying (by being in one of the most prestigious universities in the world).
I don't know my own mind on this. First, respecting the law of the land is not always good (see: the Holocaust and slavery) and societal justice and moral rightness aren't the same thing. Second, they did something they believe in and should absolutely be prepared to face societal justice. That doesn't mean I would pass a sentence myself...it's a hard one and luckily I have no power or sway in what happens to them because I'd be deliberating with myself for hours haha
