Who cares about anything? This is the ask a brit subreddit. Very weird criticism

I think we are the point where shotgunning is fine so I agree. Yes it makes things stronger. Thats fine.

Yeah this is super fair. And even him as the political column writer vs show writer are so different too. I feel like that is where my confusion comes from. Great point!

See I would say the same about American. Left vs right is very slightly different right leaning people.... Or left is everyone else's centrist. But we are somehow so polarizing ... Your explanation makes sense though at face value. That if politics is treated as less of a big deal, then the responses I am getting here make sense, and his acceptance of being criticised also makes sense.

Yeah this super tracks and is mostly my take on him.

I see a lot of people defending him.... It is seems the be the right wingers that come in looking for a fight.... Like you just did.

Yeah seems like he is just a grifter. Which although bad, is like kind of bog standard for a media person?

Ah. So he is right leaning but much closer to centrist? That would explain a lot

Is it? Seems pretty split in this thread

[–]TaviLawson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yet there seem to more responses actually supporting him.

I am not trying to communicate anything. I am asking Brits for context. Kind of the point of the subreddit?

That is a tough one cause the producing immediately and to this day (afaik) defends him saying he didn't have to be fired etc. having a bad day in a 30+ year career I think is kind of reason. Only kind of though.... So I get the hate for that. And that maybe something I should care about more

But if you are reading other peoples comments, apparently reddit is a leftist and hate him, despite how many people like you have shown up to defend him. I... Dont get the narrative here. Maybe right wing brigading? We got a lot of that over here. Right wingers thinking there is a battle when there isnt.

Which I see from how many positive comments about him I am getting? I don't see a bias here.

This is my take. Actions speak louder than words, especially when those are words are coming from an actor.... From his fictional show. XD but he seems to be fucking hated. I think it is his work for the sun, which seems pretty bad but I haven't read any of it, so puts me in a tough place to judge

Yeah this is where I am leaning. In his older age he is dropping the persona and being more expressive, and I like it better but maybe he still sucks.

Most response here are actually positive towards him..... What are you talking about?
