BBC training tells staff not to criticise Zionists: The training, rolled out to BBC staff last week and seen by Middle East Eye, says people should criticise the Israeli government rather than Zionist (Middle East Eye, 2025-12-10)

>> The [BBC's new antisemitism] training, ... says: "Antisemites frequently use the word 'Zionist' ..., when they are in fact referring to Jews, whether in Israel or elsewhere.

>> "Those claiming to be 'anti-Zionist, not antisemitic', should do so in the knowledge that many Jewish people consider themselves to be Zionists."

>> The course was made by the BBC Academy in conjunction with the Jewish Staff Network, the Antisemitism Policy Trust and the Community Security Trust (#CST).

>> The #BBC training also incorporates the controversial International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (#IHRA) definition of antisemitism ...

Lol who cares if you’re Jewish and consider yourself to be a Zionist? Why the fuck should I have to care about your feelings when the shitty ideology you base your whole identity around committed a genocide and your government rapes people to death? Seriously I don’t give a shit about protecting some sensitive white Jewish persons feelings. If we lived in a world where people had any kind of morale compass there would be mass resignations at the BBC already because of how shitty their reporting was.

Literally so much of this fucking bullshit comes from over paid cry babies who think your going to put them on the next train to auschwitz just because you speak your mind about the shitty ideology they believe in. Half the anti Semitic bullshit that happened in the last couple of years would of never happened if people had stood up to fucking Isreal and not let them commit a genocide, but we all know that Isreal feeds off of antisemitism.
