Tweet that started it all
https://x.com/GaryLineker/status/1633111662352891908?cxt=HHwWiIC8kfCZ_aktAAAA
Officially, Linker "stepped down", but apparently he refused to apologize or take down the tweet after BBC asked him to so they suspended him.
This resulted in all of the co presenters and commentators to also "boycott"/quit for the time being

BBC has been taken over by fascists
Redditors are protesting the best way they can - complaining to the manager and not paying their TV loicence
Luckily there's murdoch owned Sky to take down the Tories at BBC
All in all it was a massively r-slurred move by BBC as even Jeremy Clarkson, Piers Morgan and Gary Neville all support Lineker.

Impartiality fits the shoe:
"You're not Nazis but your goals sure sound like them." Not exactly impartial... There might be a bit of a difference between not housing people in hotels (paid for) and literal extinction camps, but Lineker apparently sees things this way. Grenade of Drama in all directions!

Huh, that makes this way less insane. It's an r-slured tweet to suspend someone for but if there's an existing rule that presenters can't make political comments in public

yeah the point is the bbc is paid for by taxes (loicense lol) so they have to remain "neutral" in all their content.
in practice everyone thinks its biased against them in particular.
in reality, like everything else in the west it has a left wing bias when it comes to r-slurred cultural shit like gay black vikings or electric cars or whatever, and then a """"liberal"""" (rightoid-hegemonic) worldview about economics and politics

Gary Lineker is an ex-England international player and until this debacle was on TV as a sports pundit. Recently he tweeted something about the bong's new migrant rules being akin to 1930s Nazi nonsense and rightoids got mad and BBC has some rule about being politically neutral or something so they kinda suspended Gary Lineker until he sorts out his social media strategy
also Gary once shat his pants while playing for England

They both appear dumb from my POV but it's entertaining! Honestly the only reason I don't shitpost about local politics here is because I'm afraid If you're marked as a dissident it's very easy to get into trouble for posting wrongthink and we have politicians who will sue you (successfully) for something as trivial as sharing an unflattering facebook post
Like once I baited a politician of sorts on facebook with a very obvious fake account and all that and his response made it on the local news sites which made me for a while which wasn't fun lol

American politics went through about two decades of "I'll do whatever you want, just please don't call me racist."
But we also have free speech laws, so calling people racist lost its steam when the word lost its meaning.

Everyone was leaving Europe from the late 1800s well into the 30s. They had the complete opposite problem of immigration. The NSDAP was only concerned about stirring up domestic ethnic shit to blame the loss of WW1 on someone + worrying about Russia becoming a super power. And it was entirely domestic (or in countries they invaded).
Mass illegal migration from 3rd world countries is a new modern problem that Europe has never faced until recently with EU open border policies.
