Edit: they published some transphobic shit: https://www.thepinknews.com/2022/02/15/ilga-europe-transphobia-uk-bbc/
I woke to discover this, and immediately defederated it. I don’t need that transphobia factory in our timelines
Clarify?
The BBC is actively transphobic, and regularly publishes transphobic content that stirs up hate. Given that I admin two trans heavy instances, I won’t be federating with them
Are there articles you can share?
It’s pretty widely known and has been an issue for a long time. It’s not terribly hard to google for.
I tried to google it before asking
edit: the only result i found was this: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2021/nov/04/bbc-changes-online-article-at-centre-of-transphobia-row
edit2: does this sum it up? https://www.them.us/story/bbc-latest-transphobic-screed-is-a-mockery-of-journalism
I’ve also been looking. I see other websites complaining, but I want to see actual BBC content that’s inflamatory etc, as I can’t find anything. It must exist, but so far, can’t find it.
“Many people have blocked the BBC for posting transphobic content that is harmful to trans folk”
“Hey, can you please share some of that harmful content?”
