I never thought of myself as particularly invested in public broadcasting but "the BBC is literally a wing of NAMBLA" is such a hot take I'm forced to a defensive stance almost by default

Lumpy the Cook posted:Honestly, what was the last worthwhile thing the BBC has even? All I can think of is Walking With Dinosaurs and that was in the 90s. Definitely not enough solid content to make up for their many, many, many sexual assaults on women and children. was Jeeves and Wooster BBC? those are pretty good

But seriously, name one period of history where the English posh class aren't loving children. It's really unfair to single out a few decades at one TV station.

Okay seriousposting for a minute here: men like Saville were a systemic problem, and their crimes were normalised and covered up by failures on every level of society. The problem now is that rather than giving an honest assessment of how things got so hosed up, Saville is only ever brought up in bad faith by evil shitheads to attack an institution they hate (the BBC) while exonerating and whitewashing away the culpability of institutions they like (the police, the right-wing press, Thatcher's government)

So any time the BBC is mentioned and someone goes 'b-b-b-but SAVILLE!' it's safe to assume they're a middle-aged home counties fascist who clutches their purse when they see refugees on the news

I mean look at the loving state of them these days, they've been invaded by management dipshits and marketized and dumbed down to the point where a once mighty cultural institution struggles to produce the same pap that the commercial channels do, and to the detriment of the quality programming they were once known for, and their current affairs reporting is gunshy, risk-averse and cringingly deferential to the worst cunts in the world.

It's the press doing free marketing for big corporate properties now, since the black stormtrooper in Star Wars and female Ghostbusters. Because "internet trolls" is a wholly unquantifiable number and the people on Twitter or Youtube is like, millions upon millions, it's an inherently unquantifiable value of exactly how many people actually are stating these views, and simply living with the reality that on a planet with literal billions of people that of course there are going to be a handful with inane, delusional ideas like a black Stormtrooper ruins Star Wars (they're all clones of a dude with Maori blood, so lol) yet on platforms like Twitter or Youtube are given equal space to "OMG!!! NEW STAR WARS LOOK HYPE!!!!" and there's simply no way to really get your head around just how many Star Wars boycotters there are compared to the vast millions happy to see a new Star Wars movie, so it's easy to point out "Shocker! These Twitter Trolls Are PISSED About Black Star Wars!" and get people angry at some formless mass of people that have no real political or economic power. One can acquire social capital for "dunking" or "mic dropping" on said "trolls" and personally profits from displaying how so not racist they are, and everyone not in this formless mass gets to feel good that they're better than whomever is supposedly mad about a black guy in Star Wars. It's inherently masturbatory and empty, just as [url=" https://www.buzzfeed.com/alannabennett/cant-bring-us-down?utm_term=.buvAa9oDYY#.qjeMX5E7gg"]12 Ways You Can Support The New "Ghostbusters" Movie Against The Hate Campaign[/url] quote:
Literally spending your hard earned money on a lovely Paul Feig comedy is now a feminist act. Advertising is no longer about reccomending good products for people to spend hard earned money on, (okay, it never was to begin with) but now it's about giving people the feeling that they are being heroic and standing against some injustice by spending money on frivolous luxuries like movie tickets and children's toys. It's a nightmarish and inherently dystopian future where big corporate has completely absorbed revolutionary feminist thought for their own profits. There will always be mad misogynist failsons getting the spotlight, no matter how irrelevant they are, so "journalists" can pretend to be martyrs bringing about a more just society and big corporate can line their pockets even further.
