FabSwingers.com forum: Social media view on covid19 news

As anyone else noticed how biased the BBC is regarding the reporting of news like the protesters in trafalgar Square last Saturday? They were peaceful and caused no bother but the police broke them up using excessive force, punching a elderly lady in the stomach, just for peaceful protesting. BBC is a waste of time and money.

She was pushed off of a chair she was standing on, not punched in the stomach.

She'd somehow managed to carry a chair to the protest, despite needing a stick which she was merrily waving around from her perch.

The subterfuge really fell apart when she was on the ground as the video clearly shows a much younger person dressed in older clothing.

And you wonder why the BBC didn't report it?

There is a video on YouTube, it was excessive force, and she was a elderly lady, which is why the British brain washing corporation won't show it. Did they do this at the blm protest? Double standard

There's a really good film called "the social dilemma" which talks about social media and it's effect on us. Very interesting

I've watched it and it's very interesting.

There was something very similar on Aljazera last week too. A very interesting discussion by 4 different experts on this very subject.

Bottom line was demonstrating who most people see what they want to see and how few really listen to what is said but are just using any opportunity to voice their views. Little critical thinking and even less open to changing their own views in the face of new information.
