Well that's ok, I guess they don't have to report on it anymore.

The bar set by GP comment is that the BBC “ignored this”. Any amount of coverage proves that to not be the case.

Have they reported on it enough? No. But that’s not what was being claimed.

That claim was preceded by the language "hardly covered this". You're being uncharitably literal.

Fascists are gaining power because people are allowed to be not literal enough, and they are allowed to use dog whistles and euphemism.

Sorry, I don’t understand what you are saying. Are you claiming that the person criticising the UK state media is a fascist? Or are you saying that the state media not covering these law changes adequately make them fascist?

ruszki · 2024-04-27T09:37:51

None of those.

Gud · 2024-04-27T09:47:53

Ok, would you clarify for me?

Soviet media hardly covered Soviet labor camps, but it absolutely covered them!!11

Maybe next time, GP should be more precise with their words when they make two statements in one comment so low quality replies like these don’t have to exist.

Hey it's mentioned here on HN. That counts as being reported!?
