  1. Expect a Left-wing bias.

  2. Hiring three left-wingers to do a series on Civilsation is exactly why i no longer pay the license fee.

  3. Western civilisation and culture is by far the superior culture and civilisation that the world has ever known, but that won't be the conclusion of this series. Instead we will be force-fed a false narrative of equality, post-modernism and a dash of guilt and shame for Western excellence.

  4. Because it's the BBC.

  5. By 'left-wing' i mean being in favour of egalitarianism, i.e: viewing equality as preferable to heirarchy. The problem is that the show will view peoples and cultures who were most successful as either less advanced than ourselves or evil simply because they contradict the religion of equality. Basically, the ideal civilisation will be one based upon egalitarianism and anything that doesn't fit this mould will be judged as either backwards or evil, despite the evidence proving otherwise.

  6. Goose Hamsterson, I dare you to take a step inside any of Europe's great Cathedrals, or observe the great masterpieces of Michelangelo in Rome, or read the verse poety of Dante, or listen to a meditative Gregorian chant.....then come back and tell me that a male dominated hierarchy should not be the ideal civilisation.

  7. Albion Myway, Agreed. The worldview of the Left is so full of contradictions and misconceptions that it's always fun in a debate. A good example is gay marriage. Proponents of gay marriage claim they're fighting for the freedom of homosexuals to marry against an unjust imposition by those in power (bottom-up). But in reality the Left used the power of the state to enforce a new definition of marriage onto society from the top-down! They had to change what was naturally exclusive to become artificially inclusive, just so those excluded by nature don't feel left out. They implimented a decree that natural law is no longer worthy of respect or adherence, and anyone who does must now agree with them and hold it in the same amount disdainas they do or face being socially destroyed. They have become the aggressor, the bully, the tyrant, the MAN.

  8. Goose Hamsterson, Beard is a feminist; feminism is predicated on the assumption that 'equality' is an ideal state of being. If feminism is equality, And equality is a left-wing ideal Then Mary Beard (who is a feminist) is a Leftist.

  9. I agree, thanks. I haven't owned a tv in about ten years and haven't paid the license fee in that time either. I refuse to give money to people that are actively trying to destroy everything i believe in. I'm still waiting for the vast majority of people in this country to wake up and realise that a de facto coup d'état has taken place within the major institutions of the country.

  10. The upside to their contradictory nature is that it's kinda fun unravelling all the insanity using reductio ad absurdum and watching their reaction (or even watching their conversion back to sanity), but the downside, of course, is that these people are dangerous to the cohesion of our society.

  12. @guillaume langlois, You're mistaking prudence for paranoia. And life certainly isn't boring when you possess discernment, it actually makes life quite fun.
