If they weren't such weasels and actually agrued back rather than just ban people like the spineless dimwit twats they are, I'd say the argument that they are easily filtered holds. But given they are just looking to propagate their shilling for Russia, trump (and they definitely do this) etc... fuck em!

Yeah I think about that even with the tankie trolls on here, is it just some poor fuck enlisted in the russian war effort to shill for Putin's imperial dreams

Odd the BBC choose to clarify here

... Love scams. The latter are also known as "pig butchering" scams, named after the farming practice of fattening pigs before slaughtering them.

Some fat English gammon editor maybe got a bit uncomfortable by the name possibly...

Well that's good you support their fight against Israel. I'd be too afraid to go against all those zealots with all that American military hardware and id guess you would too.

Should Palestines be taking security measures when being slaughtered by a vile genocidal racist fascist ethnostate?

Internally in the UK, the BBC brought in quota to hire more right wing comedians after it was found they aren't funny

This was by Tim Davie the director general, a very generous Tory donor

The BBC has been fully captured and the stuff that comes out of it is as biased as any of the right wing media outlets (which is pretty all major outlets now), but done in a plummy(1) way that seems to get past a lot of peoples bullshit detention

Two birds with one stone

Semitic is race. Judaism is a religion. Religion is a cultural phenomenon. Zionism is intrinsically linked to the religion and historically has been an incredibly fanatic cult very willing to do anything to reach their final goals. I think hatred of this is far removed from any kind of racism.

E: and the conflation of Zionism with Judaism is something I see consistently coming from zionists, so it being being deemed a trait of anti Semitism doesn't make sense to me for several reasons. I'm an atheist though so generally have no respect for fairytales that send people psychotic...

Billionaires and organised wingnuts love their corrupt puppets and unfortunately most people are very easily led.
