        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.

        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.
