That has not yet been provided in this subthread. GGP's post is non sequitur nonsense—all he's doing is throwing out the "liberal" slur that's so popular with Reddit quarantine zone denizens and hoping nobody on either "side" notices that what he's saying doesn't make an ounce of sense.
If so, were or were not equivalent positions created in the new structure and filled?
Those are the only questions that matter—what is or is not said about any of it in news media is irrelevant. So I'll ask you, do you have answers to those questions that conflict with the ones published by Snopes? Or, if not, do you have additional questions and answers that show how those questions aren't the whole story?
If not, to be perfectly frank, fuck off. It beggars belief that people like you are on here peddling sophomoric wisdom about media bias and backpedaling whataboutism in the face of this crisis.
