I do not need to keep going on. It has already been explained and you fully understand. I know you do, you know you do.Tell me where I'm wrong then...
Bad character = white.
That's not reality.
The darker skinned people. The religion of peace people.
Should be teaching that in schools instead...
Not white baddies.
You don't think toxic masculinity is a problem? Never heard of Andrew Tate?Why are the government then using fiction as a way of making a point that does not exist in this country? Is this a big issue in this country?
It is about race when you look at statistics and we all know if the kid had been any other colour in the programme, there would be no clamour for the government to use it. How stupid do you have to be to not understand?
Islamic convert Andrew Tate? Yes funnily enough I have heard of him and his brother too. What does a made up story about Incels have to do with Andrew Tate exactly? Honestly, you really believe that this is the best thing to show school children on a government initiative?You don't think toxic masculinity is a problem? Never heard of Andrew Tate?
You're making it about race. There's plenty of stuff made about race but you seem upset this one isn't about race. Watch Top Boy if you want to watch black boys with knives and drugs.
I'm going to write to complain about Coronation Street showing a white boy stabbing another white boy in a ginnel. We know it's only 'them' that stab people.
So why are you arguing about it then? You make zero sense. The only thing I can think of is that you assume anybody who mentions the colour is a racist blah, blah blah. How sad for you.I've already said, I couldn't care less whether it is shown in schools or not.
You missed that, but you're clever and already know that...
Kids stabbing each other isn't a problem or relevant? They've got a ready made programme about stabbings to show school kids. Even if they don't talk about the toxic masculinity it's relevant and shows the impact on the family from a different perspective. But you want to make it about race.Please use something that is an actual problem in this country if you want to show school children.
Have a look at the statistics of the demographic committing stabbings and mysogyni. Do you think it is a good idea to use a made up story to teach kids? Using something that is not true and has no statistical baring on UK society is ridiculous. Of course race and religion come into it from the true problems out there in the UK today.Kids stabbing each other isn't a problem or relevant?

You mentioned Andrew Tate, not me. What has this programme got to do with Andrew Tate? If he is the problem, how in any way will this help?
Well actual facts are important for schools so yes it is really important the correct message is heard. Especially for children who are, in general, much more susceptable to what they hear.You weren't asking me, but that doesn't seem to matter.
Are you suggesting children should only watch non-fiction?
That they are incapable of learning from fiction?
Does all new fiction have to meet a strict criteria on statistical facts?
…which is a major point in what “Adolescence” is communicating.Especially for children who are, in general, much more susceptable to what they hear.
Well, they teach religion in schools which is all made up. Why does it have to be factual? Stabbings happen, it's a fact. Should they make a documentary a out a specific incident, but one showing black kids because it satisfies you and your ilk? Yes race and religion cause some problems, but should it be compulsory to make a programme about it? As I said, watch Top Boy if it helps.Have a look at the statistics of the demographic committing stabbings and mysogyni. Do you think it is a good idea to use a made up story to teach kids?

Yes I must be out of touch, what with having 2 teenage kids and a 23 year old son...Well, they teach religion in schools which is all made up. Why does it have to be factual?

I mentioned Andrew Tate because he's the poster boy of toxic masculinity. You have no idea, you're so out of touch with what children talk about.

I'm sure you've got your finger in the pulse then, well done. One of the interesting takes from the programme, if you've actually watched it, was the parents realising they don't actually know what their children are up to.Yes I must be out of touch, what with having 2 teenage kids and a 23 year old son...
It is the principal point of the programme, which has flown way, way over the heads of a few on this thread.I'm sure you've got your finger in the pulse then, well done.

And crap telly that tries to educate usSchools should have banned smart phones from the outset.
I think a lot of parents have allowed their kids to retreat behind their devices and neglected to fully engage them in family life. The kids access stuff they shouldn't see and become further influenced by peers that are themselves not mature. The over sexulisation of mainstream media also plays a part. Even daytime tv discuss topics under the pretence of education but is really there for titillating.I'm sure you've got your finger in the pulse then, well done.

But he is a long hared scruffy wierdoHe's white though isn't he?
This doesn't reflect the demographic stats facts...
Get Him to the Beak
People having their own opinions eh? ShockingThe Playbook has been opened again - tired and worn though it is
Just how obnoxious and stupid is this comment? The worst thing is that you do understand the point.He's white though isn't he?

Arent some things worth fighting over?To answer your question, I have no idea what I'd do. I know I wouldn't like to live in a country caught between NATO, the CIA (and all of that NeoCon activity, that was always geared towards conflict with Russia), and Russia itself. (I imagine if you have the mentality for it, it's very easy to stir a conflict up when you don't have to live with the consequences.)
I have every sympathy with Ukrainians. Unfortunately, they've been screwed by the west and Russia. And they're going to keep getting on screwed until a peace agreement is made. Don't let the UK media fool you: they are losing.
As far as I can see, in the west, there is only one bit of real leverage left and that is the threat of WW3. Do you want them to use it? Or would you prefer them to find a peace deal to end the war?
Your man Mystery is not up for any peace deal that gives anything to Russia. In other words he's for the continuation of war and zero compromise.
Same question to you too: if you don't want a peace deal that comes with being flexible with Russia, what is your alternative?
