      It’s very clear that whoever briefed this (if it isn’t just LK’s own analysis) had never seen the term shitposting before that Tory party graphic with comic sans and neon text and then just assumed they knew all there was to know about it

      There are SO MANY PEOPLE that are experts on this *increasingly very important language* and the BBC just doing fat fingered explainers based on clearly zero research is insanely irresponsible and is literally spreading misinformation

          Sarah, this is a really excellent explainer, both in terms of shitposting itself and the wider context.

          It's almost as if they were having fun with something of massive importance to civilisation as we know it. I can't believe they've been so 'insanely irresponsible'.

          By shitposting doesn't she mean a government using the same psy-ops the Russians did to interfere with elections against their own people?
