Let's stop pretending that the billionaire media, endlessly attacking the BBC, has the slightest interest in balance, impartiality and accuracy. They won't be happy until the BBC is more rightwing than Vlad the Impaler. And then it still won't be enough.

Utter bloody gaslighting and a right-wing coup at the BBC!
For one thing, the accusation of bias in favour of LGBTQ+ is LUDICROUS! 'Gender-Critical' mouthpieces seem to have free access and you hardly EVER see a trans person or an ally. Now it can only get worse.

The wonderful @bjennings90.bsky.social 's take on the gaslighting of the BBC by an organised right-wing campaign. [Yes that's David Attenborough - this is a really clever cartoon.]]

"Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrauth and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven."

Like one who, on a lonely road,
Doth walk in fear and dread,
And, having once turned round, walks on,
And turns no more his head;
Because he knows a frightful fiend
Doth close behind him tread.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times
