The 2021-2022 Seketese protests were a series of losely related protests against the government of Simy Brasa. Protests in Seketan began in March 2021 in the aftermath of the 2021 Seketese election, where Brasa's Our Revolution party won a surprise majority government on a platform of anti-establishment and anti-lockdown retoric. During the protests, around 200 people were reported as injured, $4 million in propert damage was perpatrated, and 134 people were arrested though only 21 would be charged.

Intially, protestors came from the Seketese political left and progressives, who objected to Brasa's proposals of ending COVID lockdowns and critism of previous Socialist Prime Minister Eris Kellisyen's anti-hate speech laws. Protests started to die down around November, but were resparked by the 2021-22 Seketese government crisis, which saw Our Revolutions libertarian wing leave the government and form the Freedom Alliance, ironically over government inaction on lifting COVID measures. While eventually a deal would be struck with opposition parties to keep the government afloat, right-wing protests erupted accross the nation in a second wave of protests, ending in late March 2022.
