I can understand the Anger
as a comedy show
get politics out of it.
[Vicar of Dibley viewers slam 'lecturing' BBC for using
comedy to promote 'political' causes after Dawn French took
the knee for Black Lives Matter
Viewers criticised series for using a comedy show to promote a 'Woke' agenda
One tweeted: 'I'm sick and tired of being lectured every time I turn on the TV'
Sparked impartiality concerns over political aims of those behind BLM campaign]

perhaps when you start viewing The Vicar of Dibley as a bastion of extremist far-left values, it's a sign that you've shifted a little too far to the right

There arne't many shows left that don't have some form of divisive, identity politics pushed in them. Oh yeah, they usually want you to donate generously to their causes.

It's not really worthy of anger, just more of the boring same song we've been hearing lately.
Racial equality is about treating all races equally (funnily enough), not kneeling on the ground and bleating on about it.

...I read that it’s only a 90 second bit so not really ‘invading’, I wouldn’t say...just a tiny fraction of viewing time...and (...I thought from my recollection...)...that Geraldine’s politics always played a part of her character....she stood in some election once, I think...so I think that it seems quite in proportion to have that small acknowledgement to her politics put in here...plus obviously reflecting equality that her role as Vicar would feel strongly about...(..I think Kizzy said that...)...

I would hope an English vicar would concern themselves with parish business and all the need in the UK before she got involved with USA political stuff that does not concern them
:confused:
...she’s only devoting 90 seconds of her time so far as is being reported on the tiny segment...and other segments cover key ‘political’ stories of 2020...clapping for the NHS, lockdown decisions and school exams being cancelled...they’ve all been big talking points of the year, so it’s touching on that but not in the context of ‘being the storyline’, I don’t think...

You say that while spewing the same arguments and points that every far right winger does. The lack of self awareness continues to be astounding.

...then don’t fund it, sir...keep your wallet closed to the BBC and take a stand or take a knee or whatever if you feel so strongly that 90 seconds of your time is being made so distasteful to you...Geraldine’s vocation as a Vicar is to support equal lives because ‘that’s what Jesus would do’...so a few seconds have been given to express that and one of the biggest talking points of this year... but if that offends your wallet, then take your stand or your knee and refuse your part of funding it...

Look I have 5 TV screens
one
is BBCnewsHD and BBCworldnewsHD (after midnight & now 7PM)
(BBC go to the Foreign News service, to save money
as they are so Bloated)
I am not going to break the Law for you.
Katie Hopkins just existing really has racists in this thread twisted.
Tommy Robinson talking about the subject immigration, really has racists in this thread, twisted.
Donald Trump just simply doing President stuff, really has racists in this thread twisted.
Yes! This is what you sound like to people. I can go on all day doing this, just like the racists in this thread do.
I hate racists, which makes me good, so you can't say anything bad about me. I hate my White privlige. I probably need to suffer for simply being White because of what happened hundreds of years before I was born.
I'm White, which means any opinion I have should been seen as racist. That will help things, apparently.
Anthony Joshua tells people to not shop in White people shops. He wants people to Boycott places simply because of the owners skin colour. Anthony Joshua is allowed to say things like that and anyone that questions if what he's saying is inciting racist behaviour, will be shut down as a racist themselves.
