      The BBC is a Tory mouthpiece, just as it has been for the past decade. Starmer should have cleaned house as soon as he got into office, and implemented Leveson 2.0 at the same time. Instead, the state is funding propaganda that benefits one party.

      People and companies are deathly afraid of being called “antisemitic”. So threats, bullying, and repression are allowed to happen constantly, even as zionists are only something like 1% of the world’s population. “Antisemitism” now means anything short of full support of whatever the state of Israel wants, and even bringing this topic up is said to be antisemitic.

      The very use of the word “Palestinian” is said to itself be a genocide.

      BBC is just not well equipped to deal with that sort of pressure.
