Every radio station there he is.
Walking around shopping he is playing on the store sound system.
Open Apple Music or Spotify, they want you to listen to Ed Sheeran.
Watch Game of Thrones? There is Ed Sheeran.
Walk downstairs, he is sitting in your living room.
He is everywhere. It's awful. I just want it to stop.

The assault on our culture has to be as attacked as the further evolution away from any injustices that remain which will be a slow process as there is no quick fix.

I would say overzealous 'lefties' at universities is a long-standing part of the culture too. These people are a minority though. Even at Universities, the more radical ones are in a minority.
I don't think you'll find many students who would approve of vandalising the Chruchill statue either. That's the more radical element making themselves known along with a few fellow travellers who get a bit intoxicated by the energy of the protest. The concept of Churchill being a racist will get wider acceptance but not attacking the statue.
