Wtf is up with the BBC shitting the bed so badly lately. “Arm Gesture” what kind of fucked up cover up is that shit. This author should be ashamed of themselves. This is the perfect opportunity for anyone with a spine to call out these media outlets publicly.

Are libel laws weaker in the UK than the USA? Calling someone a nazi is libelous here unless they are an admitted Nazi. That’s why all the articles call it “odd”.
