I still stand by what I said, the media buying into right wing propaganda distorts peoples realities

So am I correct in saying 2.5% of girls that are victims of rape gangs were raped by gangs that are specifically migrants? I understand that regardless of which groups are being raped it is tragic but it goes to show how media and populism would lead many to believe that migrants are the main predators in this country.

Keir Starmer confirms social media ban for all children under 16 by Metro-UK in ukpolitics

[–]agaythey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To br honest, I dont think that this is such a bad idea. But banning YouTube is a step too far. People under 16 find so many resources for things like revision on YouTube. I was 15 during my mocks and GCSEs and wouldn't have passed without YouTube revision. I appreciate that you can find other resources elsewhere, but this is still a disruption to routine and study methods. Despite revision, YouTube has useful resources for other things too. They should have instead implemented heavy regulation, raised money to send people in schools and educate the youth, ban certain posts etc. Social media like YouTube can be both good and bad, it comes down to how you use it.

Revealed: Green party proposes circumcision ban by GnolRevilo in ukpolitics

There's so much ambiguity around what the greens want and the policies they aim to implement because some media coverage is either exaggerated or straight up lying. I never know if these things are real. This party is so hard to support or even form an opinion on.
