At the time they were described, not unjustly, as terrorists
97 years later they're viewed as heroes, because they were morally correct
I wonder if there are any lessons at all to be learned here

![screenshot from the Wikipedia article about "Suffragette bombing and arson campaign" which reads
"Suffragettes in Great Britain and Ireland orchestrated a bombing and arson campaign between the years 1912 and 1914. The campaign was instigated by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), and was a part of their wider campaign for women's suffrage. The campaign, led by key WSPU figures such as Emmeline Pankhurst, targeted infrastructure, government, churches and the general public, and saw the use of improvised explosive devices, arson, letter bombs, assassination attempts and other forms of direct action and violence.
At least four people were killed in the attacks, and at least 24 were injured (including two suffragettes).[1] The campaign was halted at the outbreak of war in August 1914 without having brought about votes for women, as suffragettes pledged to pause the campaign to aid the war effort.
Both suffragettes and the authorities of the time described the arson and bomb attacks as a terrorist campaign. Contemporaneous press reports also referred to attacks as terrorist incidents in both the United Kingdom and in the United States. Historians have also classified the campaign as one involving terrorist acts, such as C. J. Bearman, Rachel Monaghan and feminist historians Fern Riddell and Cheryl Jorgensen-Earp."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hlurvx3layubykcl5mpoq734/bafkreiacobfs6zivpqlurfnrbyio5mz4krfy7qyc3anhshjeutlfg4e63y@jpeg)

Regret to inform that the WSPU has been retrospectively proscribed for the Suffragette bombing and arson campaign, and all the MPs here wearing WSPU colours have been jailed

Isn't it odd* that @alexdaviesjones.bsky.social MP has turned off quotes and replies to this post, and is busy blocking everyone who even politely points out that the Suffragettes were a terrorist organisation. They had a bombing campaign! They targeted the king for direct action!

She's disabled replies. It's the same crybaby shitbag MP who got two women convicted of harassment for asking her questions about Palestine.
