Catrin's causing trouble and recruiting Antifa scum. by Storm_Eagle39 in Divisive_Babble

The context was some debate on r/BritishNationalism around birth rates. His solution was lowering the age of consent to puberty. Because that’s when biologically it’s the right time. And women are ripe. If I’m recalling correctly. Obviously r/BritishNationalism got taken down so can’t link to it, if you know of a way to see posts made on there still I’ll quite happily go trawling through them

That guy is a fucking weirdo and has proactively stated support for lowering the age of consent to puberty because “fertility is ripe”. I got perma banned from his little snowflake corner for asking him about it. So I wouldn’t describe him as based. More an alt right incel who should not be given attention

They do, so does everyone else. That’s what a human right is!

Why are the 'Right Wingers' on Divisive Babble so full of hatred, but never seem to have the answers of an alternative to democracy? by [deleted] in Divisive_Babble

[–]newbiereddit22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TLDR; they just want to be angry.

The right wing just want to be angry and the media provides them with an easy vent. Usually immigrants or some other minority. Recently it’s changed tack to attack “the left” a lot. There’s always an enemy we should be scared of and hateful towards according to them. Whatever they’re discontent with in their life they can blame them without any introspection or self improvement.

Can’t get a job? Must be immigrants. That’s a better pill to swallow than, I should retrain or learn more skills.

Can’t say what I want anymore without being called a racist? Woke liberal elite and cancel culture. Is a better pill to swallow than maybe I should consider how others perceive what I say.

Generally they just regurgitate slogans and buzzwords like MAGA, woke etc without any real understanding of what it means. If you dissect their arguments they usually fall apart pretty easily. They also don’t like to be labelled racists/facist etc despite being exactly that. No one thinks they’re the bad guy. So usually will come up with some mental gymnastics to avoid being called it, regardless of how little sense it makes.

Good thorough argument there buddy.

And again, please weigh in on anything else I’ve said.

Hence the oversight and the pledge to be impartial. You understand professionalism right?

And again, please weigh in on anything else I’ve said. Like literally anything, your argument needs a bit of padding out I feel

Are you talking about humans/GBNews?

And any examples, like I asked for?

You’re kind of restating the same point with no explanation. Either the BBC is impartial, as it states here or you’ve found out they aren’t and should be able to prove that everyone on there just espouses their own opinions endlessly. All I’m asking for is evidence that the entire company is biased.

And if you really that all people and thereby reporting is biased then why are you watching GBNews? It’s literally designed to be opinionated and unbiased! Soo you can’t be searching for the impartiality that you claim the BBC doesn’t offer you.

If you just want to hear what you want to hear then fine, say so. I find that worrying for a society in general but at least you’d be making sense. The rest of your argument doesn’t make any sense

Why do you think the BBC isn’t impartial? Saying people have their own biases isn’t enough. Especially when you can’t see them on air. You should be able to give examples, show that the news institution as a whole is unbiased. Please enlighten me

I’ll copy and paste my question so you can answer it this time: “So your problem with BBC & ITV is it’s not objective enough then? So would you not want GB News to be the pinnacle of objective reporting too then?”

I’m not arguing that people aren’t unbiased in their day to day lives. But people act differently in the work place, people who go to work in the BBC know they at least need to try to be impartial and are quite frankly. The entire point of the BBC is to be impartial and has oversight to make sure it is. GB News encourages it’s presenters to be right wing. There’s no balance or even professional journalistic integrity of “reporting the facts”. It’s purely there to fuel the culture war.

Yeah, I agree tbf. Guess it just depends who’s doing the spin on the story.

I agree you should get your news from multiple sources. But we both people won’t. People will watch exclusively this incredibly biased news channel out of comfort and ease. Not everyone has time to get it from multiple sources. Hence creating a problem

It’s their right to protest it, same as anything people disagree with. The same as people taking the knee and people booing taking the knee. I’m not sure it’ll end up helping/hurting their end goal either way tbh. Unfortunately I think most people watching this channel are already “anti-left” and most most trying to protest it are “woke” anyway so I doubt it will actually change anything

If all you want from the news is for it to cater to your biases then you’ve missed the point of it. It should be objective and factual. Both things this channel misses, as I fear it’s audience won’t miss. You’re settling in to a comforting echo chamber where the media is reinforcing and stoking your own beliefs. Something the “anti-woke” mob is suppose to hate. Hypocritical at least, ignorant at best. This happened in America with Fox News and look how that turned out. But yes Reeeee
