Israel has murdered hundreds of thousands of people, wiping out whole Palestinian family bloodlines. Infants have been shot in the head. In May and June 2024, students at Warsaw University, already involved with the Palestine movement, agreed to occupy the university grounds. Beginning with a series of protests from the 17th of May then forming an encampment on the 24th of May until they were forcibly removed from the campus on the 12th of June, the students demonstrated in support of the University's divestment from investments in Israel, and the severing of any connection with academia in Israel. The genocide continues to this day.

Protests and demonstrations have been held outside the Ukrainian, American, and Russian embassies as well as in various locations around Warsaw. The war and the protests continue to this day.

While orange cornstarch paint was used to cover various monuments and buildings during this time, the primary form of protest was roadblocks. The group advocated for cheaper and wider public transport options to reduce Polish reliance on private commuter travel. Supported by many, the group was also widely considered divisive and provoked a great deal of debate in the Polish media. The group ended their activities in 2026 after a draft citizens' bill, the so-called "Lex Ostatnie Pokolenie", was introduced to parliament submitting the organisation's proposals.
