DMs only if we've an established relationship.
Okay thanks. I was hoping you meant that. My mind doesn't read the two statements as the same in that I see a distinction, but I thought perhaps you might what the meme is making clear. I appreciate your hanging in there with me.

Indeed... that's the point. You could acknowledge that in this situation the BBC wasn't far right enough for the powerful elite.

Monbiot nails it. The BBC isn’t punished for challenging power—it’s punished for not reinforcing it completely. Gaza. Trans rights. Trump. The pattern’s clear: media that fails to serve as a full-time shield for elite narratives gets sacrificed. Not for truth. For optics.

The BBC didn’t just cut a line from Trump’s Jan 6 speech. They cut themselves out of the fight. Saying “peacefully” doesn’t erase months of incitement or armed intent. Resigning wasn’t accountability. It was submission dressed as neutrality.

I understand your upset and the BBC just caved to Trump. Saying “peacefully” doesn’t erase months of incitement or armed intent. Resigning wasn’t accountability. It was submission dressed as neutrality.

But resign over pressure that distorts the reality of Trump's intent? Criticise him for what he deserves criticism for, but this is not it.

I'm trying to understand your statement. Can you let me know if my meme is consistent with it?

Did you mean to say: "democrats are institutionally reliant on the insistence that liberal centrism is the only alternative to fascism"? That's quite different from what you said.

Do you mean centrism in the objective sense--the majority of people who support progressive policies?

A reminder: Trump feels no shame; he is not ashamed.

What he is doing is both shameful and against the law. According to him, and much of SCOTUS, he is a man above the law (a ruling they pulled out of their ass).
