      Lol no, because as far as i can tell they dont do it with other forms of bigotry like racism.

      https://www.bbc.co.uk/editorialguidelines/guidance/impartiality-and-racism

      BBC is not impartial on racism.

      I had no role in the instance’s decision; don’t try to argue against their decision with me. I’ve got no say in it.

      “Both sides” is BS

      It’s a difficult design but generally speaking I don’t think news has an obligation to provide both sides.

      A. They should not run editorials

      B. If they do run editorials presenting both sides is equal to endorsement.

      This isn’t the 1960s where the only way to be heard is via letters to the editor.
