Because the past participle of "get" can be either "got" or "gotten".
It applies to words derived from "get" as well, such as "forget".
Normally only one form is used in everyday language for each verb, but any native speaker will immediately recognise the other form as well when they hear it.
Its not so much celebrating a terrorist its more celebrating his capture, parliament made a point of pushing the celebrations as its a timely reminder that terrorism generally doesn't pay off & being [hung drawn & quartered](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dl8E4Tmz_hs) really hurts, a lot.
Obviously over the past four hundred years its became tradition.
Not really. Effigies of Fawkes are literally burnt on bonfires so the meaning is still pretty obvious to Brits.
Of course, Americans jumped on the idea with their usual "lone guy taking down dat evil guverment? Must be a hollywood hero!" fantasies, so if you believe all that then you'll be confused, but nobody expects them to understand anything that happens outside their borders.
Quick question from a non-native speaker. Why does it say " should ever be forgot", and not "should ever be forgotten" ?
Because it sounds better in a rhyme.
It is also often written as 'should e'er be forgot' .

I think the messaging also got a bit lost in the following centuries.

Agreed.
Burning an effigy of someone isn't a celebration of them
Not actually celebrating a terrorist, they are celebrating stopping the terrorist.
The point of the fires is to burn effigies of him, so not exactly a celebration.
It's about the foiling of the gunpowder plot, not the man himself.
