    Gonna say it, this REALLY feels like a case of the news cherry-picking what parts of a protest they show. Between the unreasonable viewpoint that’s directly adjacent to a very sensible and popular viewpoint and the fact we KNOW the media have a very vested interest in trying to push pro-genocide narratives (such as anti-Israel protests being pro-terrorist)…

    Yeah, even someone as gullible as me? I’m not buying this.

      This is the telegraph.

      Imagine Boris Johnson dressed in tweed and living in a cottage in Devon

      That’s their reader base

      UK news sources are very prone to behaving like that, if you ever spent time in r/GreenAndPleasant it’s shocking how much UK news you dont hear about. Anything vaguely anti-crown just doesn’t get coverage. Or protests in general.

      It’s part of why they media bias bot is laughable given it considers BBC unbiased

        Do you remember the “Sir you are being hunted” indie game? That is what i imagine the bot to look like, wearing tweed and living in his evil robot cottage.
