Just played a weird mashup of the Nolan report and the Benjamin guy umm oh and ahhing about what gender is over a sound track of ‘don’t know much about biology’.

It’s right at the end. I don’t know what to think!

And finished with Dave Chappelle.

They got stuff about Stock having to resign as well I think. Would need to listen again, it's not the easiest to absorb.

Blessex · 04/11/2021 02:33

Ok I listened. Its a total and utter piss take on gender ideology. They get it. The tide has turned

Caution, caution, this ferret is reversing.

And the USA/Canada - it’s coming over the Atlantic to you soon. Hold on tight - the wave is turning. Get on your surf boards.

Wow! I don’t know where that came from, but we apppear to be entering a new phase, where it’s acceptable to laugh when the arguments presented are laughably poor.

@AnyOldPrion don’t know much biology 🎶

Igmum · 04/11/2021 06:08

Thank heavens. At long, long last. I so hope this is the beginning of the end

Fallingirl · 04/11/2021 06:22

Oh, dear, LOJ will have (another) apoplectic fit!

Yusanaim · 04/11/2021 06:32

This probably isn't the place but I want to say that only the Tories with their many, many faults stood against this gender stuff, all the others crumbled and pandered to it nauseatingly.

MidsomerMurmurs · 04/11/2021 06:51

Yes John Holmes gets it. He’s also (probably) somewhat pissed off at the worst aspects of BBC wokery having been shoved off programmes like The Now Show in the name of inclusion.

The best weapon against this nonsense is utter derision. We’re right to be angry, but actually scorn for the ludicrous arguments put forward by gender ideology is more effective I think.

BaronessWrongCrowdRex · 04/11/2021 07:39

That was amazing. It was also incredibly poignant at the end with Dave Chappelle talking about Daphne and a Wonderful World playing in the background. Got a bit choked up.

VerveClique · 04/11/2021 07:57

That was bloody brilliant. Tucked away for now in a corner of BBC sounds. Hoping this will grow.

Bollocks. They've been more than happy for the ideology to rip their opponents apart haven't they ? All you've noticed is that the UK media has a default Tory-friendly stance, that's all.
MildredsMussaurus · 04/11/2021 08:13

I can't quite believe what I'm hearing! BBC, welcome back, we've missed you!

EmbarrassingHadrosaurus · 04/11/2021 08:19

It's golden bridge time.

We can not care about why people have taken so long to abandon their relentless progression towards social totalism and authoritarianism we can only prepare a space for them. Especially when this progression is arrested by a major broadcaster.

TedImgoingmad · 04/11/2021 08:21

That was superb, thanks for the link, OP! The Sam Cooke/Queer Mayor mash up was a particular highlight.

@Yusanaim, the Tories are partly responsible for the mess in the first place by pushing for self ID and GRA reform under previous PM, appointing an ex Stonewall chair as head of the EHRC and barring women's groups from parliamentary discussion of issues that directly effected us. The left leaning parties might be the most vocal advocates for gender ideology (and they can all go fuck themselves, I can't see me ever trusting them again), but all this mess has happened under the watch of the Tories.

I agree. However, if I am standing at the end of the golden bridge with open arms, ready to welcome all the people who've listened to me and backed away like I was a loon over the last few years, am I permitted a smug smile and a patronising "there, there"?
IrisAtwood · 04/11/2021 08:27

Wasn’t it Theresa May’s government who proposed legislation for self identification in the first place?
Claiming that they are gender critical is a bit of a stretch, although at least they didn’t have a trans teenager as Women’s Officer.

Movistar · 04/11/2021 08:34

That was brilliant- the first time I’ve laughed out loud about the farce that we’re in.

I’ve been saying this over the last few weeks re the BBC. It’s a wonderful thing Grin

littlbrowndog · 04/11/2021 08:45

So many theys

Liked Ben from prick news trying to explain gender

RepentBirthingPersonFucker · 04/11/2021 08:49

Theresa May opened this door. She thought it was a way to get easy vote. Massive lack of any thinking from her
