Gender-swapping characters like Doctor Who does far more good than harm
Absolutely!
There is no reason that Hitler or Mao or Pol Pot should not be portrayed by women.
No reason that Delilah or Salome or Ma Barker should not be portrayed by men.
I'd especially like to see Jeffery Epstein portrayed by a woman, Myra Hindley by a man.

COVID omicron variant – how worried should you be?
"It is inexcusable that almost two years into the worst pandemic in a hundred years, we still don’t have free testing in every home, provided by the federal government through a public-private partnership like Operation Warp Speed." 
      Wait a minute! I thought FOX did not like big government? Now you want to government to fund it? What will that do for inflation ?

PALACE COMMENTS ON BOOK IDENTIFYING PRINCE CHARLES AS ‘SENIOR ROYAL’ WHO QUESTIONED ARCHIE’S COMPLEXION
‘This is fiction and not worth further comment’
If Meghan had wondered about the complexion of Archie, would that have been racist? 
If Harry had wondered about the complexion of Archie, would that have been racist?
If Oprah had wondered about the complexion of Archie, would that have been racist?
If it was not racist for them, how could it be racist for anyone else?   ANYONE else?

I crossed the Channel last summer – and my family still don’t know if I am alive
They don't know if he is alive and he won't tell them because.....?
All he had to do was identify himself in this article and they would get the word. That, and his facility with English, convinces me that this is a made-up story. But at least - whoever made it up - gets the feeling of victimhood spot on.

How a Prosecutor Addressed a Mostly White Jury and Won a Conviction in the Arbery Case
Maybe she won it because the jury thought they were guilty as charged.   
But I do like the speculation on the motives of people, especially when they count solely on interviewing others, and not the person in question.

5 Ways To Help Prevent Further Tragedy In The English Channel
1. Close dangerous routes, do not open other routes
2. Create safe access to asylum procedures in France and other European countries
3. Resettlement schemes are about right, having increased by 700% since 2000
4. Return humanitarian aid to 0.7%, not that it will do any good in this instance
5. Work together with regional countries to get asylum offered in first country

Ahmaud Arbery’s killers were convicted. But that’s not proof the system works
No, The systems ONLY works when it gives ME everything I want, right?
If I want Rittenhouse to be guilty, then he should be found guilty.  (No. of course I wasn't at the trail and did not hear the evidence and don't know why the jury decided what it did, but it is what I want.)
      "Our anger must rage on, until the entire system has been fed to the flames" sounds suspiciously like a hate crime.

It’s not just Peng. China is cracking down on MeToo movement
Well of course they are: the party can do no wrong and the #metoo movement says they can.

BBC remove former England captain from Ashes coverage in wake of racism claims
They have to remove him. He was accused!!!!!! 
(In #metoo parlance, that is the same as guilty as charged.)

Brexit chief Lord Frost said leaving EU single market would cost Brits £1,500 each
And then some!

Jury awards $25m in damages to victims in 2017 ‘Unite the Right’ assault in
Who will pay that? Why would you publish a story that ignores whether it will be paid and by whom?

Should the UK make Covid vaccines mandatory?
Yes.

Alaska man accused of threatening to murder two US senators faces 50 years in jail if convicted
How is this different from Paul Gosar?   Will Gosar be indicted?

We’re a Small Arkansas Newspaper. Why Is the State Making Us Sign a Pledge About Israel?
We don’t take political positions in return for advertising
Good for you.  This is over-reaching by big government. Smacks of socialism.

Peppa Pig and prolonged pauses – it is, I think, time to start worrying about the prime minister
Is it time to refer to Boris as "sleepy Boris Johnson"?

Sparks fly as neutral pronoun included in French dictionary
I do not understand.  The fist person neuter is "ce"  which is already gender neutral

Police ‘have biased beliefs on foxhunting opponents and challenge them more than hunters’
"Officers are far more likely to challenge saboteurs and monitors in a vehicle than hunters on horseback,"
Quite right. These people are damaging the environment using cars, while the others on horseback are back-to-nature freaks.  Good on the police.

Boris Johnson strips Transport for the North of powers after it criticises his rail cuts
Of course. Any criticism of Boris Johnson means your power will be taken away.

Jen Psaki says attacks on Kamala Harris are partly borne out of racism
Do the attacks on Trump AND Biden have anything to do with racism?

Stanley Johnson, Isabel Oakeshot and the and the problem with the word 'handsy'
"who stands twice accused of groping women at Conservative party conferences"
Well, he has been accused.   In modern parlance, that means he is guilty as charged.


‘handsy’

Adele ‘hurt’ that people felt ‘let down’ by weight loss
They don't like the fact that she is healthy.
They resent that she proved anyone can lead a healthier lifestyle.

Samuel Scott Jr: Police arrest black man for ‘stealing’ own car
Who says police in Florida are racist?

David Cameron resigns from role at Afiniti after founder accused of sex assault
Well, he HAS to, doesn't he. After all the man's been accused, which now means guilty as charged.

Liz Cheney’s state party votes to stop recognising her as a Republican
Their fuehrer told them to.

Policing bill will unjustly criminalise and imprison women for crimes they did not commit
Fortunately, men are not subject to the provisions of this law.
What? They are? But this article says it would only affect women.
Men are not even mentioned? What gives?

Private agencies are exploiting the NHS nurse shortage
"While the NHS pays nurses £16.52 an hour, these agencies are charging three times that, demanding upwards of £52 an hour....Hospitals are left with no choice other than using these nursing agencies to ensure that their wards have enough staff to provide the basic level of care needed by patients. "
Either that, or they could pay their nurses £25 an hour and be inundated with applications, mostly from staff of these agencies.

Former Trump aide Michael Flynn sparks outrage by saying US must have only one religion
OK: One religion. Will it be Catholic or Presbyterian, Lutheran, Seven Day Adventist or Mormon. 
He given us the mandate, now all we have to do is pick.
I would opt for Jedi, but that's just me. I will be happy with your choice, as long as it is only one.

The Impact of the Browning of America on Anti-Blackness
True. This is also true of White culture.   The darker your skin is, the more discrimination. 
So it may be that there are no People of No Color.  Everybody in America is a POC.
       Need examples of white culture's anti-colorism: look to anywhere in Europe (Italian versus Scandanavian, Iberia versus Teuton) or to anywhere in Russia, Canada, Australia.

Aaron Rodgers Lashes Out About N.F.L.’s Vaccine Requirements
Absolutely. I bet, as a matter of personal choice, he doesn't wear a seat belt on commercial flights or wear a hard-hat when visiting construction sites.  I bet, when he has kids, he will not have them vaccinated vaccinated for anything and advises his girl friends not to get the HPV vaccine.

First Black Woman in Bundestag Wants to Change Image of ‘Germanness’
“When a quarter of the population has an immigrant background, you really have to close your eyes to say that’s not the case,” she said.
Actually it is 13%, but who is counting.

BBC drops Michael Vaughan from radio show amid allegations in Yorkshire racism scandal
Absolutely!  He was accused, which in modern parlance means he is guilty. No need for a trial.

Owen Paterson vote ‘very serious and damaging moment’ for politics, warns sleaze watchdog chief
Yes, but Boris Johnson, himself, is: "a very serious and damaging moment for parliament and public standards in Britain."

Boris Johnson took private jet from Cop26 to dine at members’ club
Climate change is for the hoi polloi, not for our leader. He is above climate change.

Manslaughter investigation opened after migrant dies while attempting to cross the Channel
Great idea to pursue the trafficking group and the boat owner for manslaughter and 40 counts of attempted manslaughter.  They should also include all of the people on board the boat as accessories before the fact.  When it was clear how overcrowded the boat was, anyone who did not get off is guilty.

We can’t afford to lose NHS staff over vaccine mandates
Absolutely. Unvaccinated NHS workers are the only way to keep spreading the viruses.

Only 1 Black Juror Is Chosen for Trial Over AhmaudArbery’s Killing
It should have been two Hispanics, 2 Blacks, one Asian and 50% should have been women. Otherwise it is not a jury of your peers.

Should Classic Rock Songs Be Toppled Like Confederate Statues?
Of course there is ALWAYS something to get offended about, so why not rock songs. Indeed, why not all literature, painting, sculpture and any kind of music, from rap to classical. All art needs to be cancelled-cultured if it offends anybody.

FACEBOOK WHISTLEBLOWER CALLS FOR ZUCKERBERG TO STEP DOWN AS CHIEF 
And who does she suggest should take his place? Did you even ask her?
This is like her call for more regulations on Facebook: she never says what kind of regulations

Needless Suffering  In Britain
Britain offers a warning of what happens when a country ignores Covid.
Boris Johnson can stuff anything up, then lie to say that it was someone else's fault.

The children of tomorrow will watch Boris Johnson’s Cop26 speech and ask – WTF
Does WTF mean "Who This Fool?@   Or does it mean "What the f***"?    
If the latter, why is it in  this piece?  Just to bring the audience down to your sorry level?
Then, later, you write "for f****'s sake."   You really have an extensive vocabulary, don't you?

‘Teacher of the year’ in Florida charged with child abuse against student
We are clearly not getting the  full story here. Shouldstudents be allowed to threaten their teacher's lives?
