By suppressing one word and promoting others, the BBC isn’t avoiding bias. It’s curating which reality sounds most acceptable.

    To learn who rules over you simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.

      The UK being ruled by foreign pedophiles doing imperialism! They’ve only ever been good at two things. There goes their national identity.

        Voltaire? He’s a French anarchist

          That quote is often misattributed to Voltaire, but it’s actually by Kevin Alfred Strom, an American neo-Nazi who pled guilty to possession of CSAM in 2008.

            I’m glad you’re able to criticise him. The cunt.

      Why would the BBC criticise? It isn’t their remit.

        No shortage of criticisms broadcast by the BBC, both via staff and guests.

        Curious that they’d draw the line here.
