Imagine getting eviscerated by, of all people, Elon "making millionaires out of billionaires" Musk, a prime candidate as evidence of the first genetically-engineered Funko Pop/human-hybrid. The BBC wouldn't have been so embarrassed if their best & brightest did even a cursory glance at the topic he was talking about, but of course asking a journalist to do their job is tantamount to assault.
My "for you" page on twitter has, over this last month, been filled with some of the most batshit insane takes I've seen people willingly attach their names to and the fact that a fucking journalist doesn't have even a single example of this on hand is just humiliating on every front. Fuck journalists who lie to you, fuck journalists who fearmonger to sell you their dogshit opinions, but above all fuck journalists who can't be assed to do their job even when it's literally just looking at their social media pages.
Props to the Muskrat for not buckling to the "an anonymous source we totally didn't just make up" card that these scumbags love to play. Not enough folks turn "reports" like this around like that.
