        Yes, and “leftist” governments die on the hill to defend them, so they won’t be the pervert party or the real misogynists.

            Yes, but ultimately centrists cosplaying as “sane leftists” are the ones who do many of their biddings. Sometimes actual leftists too, because “this kink is problematic”, “women are regularly forced into sex work”, etc.

              It still sounds largely like a problem of a conservative agenda creeping into mainstream

        It’s even crazier to watch tv you have to have a license… I never knew that. But it’s like paying your non-over the air tv bill.

          It pays for quality BBC programming. BBC News is horrible, but BBC dramas, documentaries, and kids shows are top-tier and I’d happily pay for that, license or tax or otherwise

            BBC news would be fine if they just fired some of the presenters who are obviously biased. Maybe now the Tory plant what’s his face has gone (although ironically not for the reasons he should have been fired) BBC news might get better.

          It’s better thought of as a tax that funds the BBC, but it can’t be called a tax because it’s not run by the government.

          It’s an outdated idea though that doesn’t make any sense in this era because it means that technically if you want to watch any live TV at all then you have to pay the BBC money even if you don’t watch anything by them.

          Or you could just not answer the door in the extremely rare case that any enforcement officers actually come around and instead watch TV for free.

      It’s for sure made by one of them without even the slightest irony that those “freedoms” are being stolen by them

      The protagonist seems to have a bussy and they don’t make any trans jokes so at least there’s that

    The only thing to make it better would be to change it to “die thankful, to the terrorists for freeing me of this place” or for the last line, “maybe if they hated it here enough to go on living out of spite instead of blowing themselves up, we could accept them as fellow Britons.”

      i personally know at least one person who looks like a 19 year old Keanu Reeves, so this may be more common than we think

      I worked at a leather shop that sold what we call “Fanny packs “ I knew to call them waist bags to British people.

      I bet this was written by an American.
