Re: Talking Pictures in trouble for showing racist material again.

They don't just campaign on fighting bans of old TV shows and films, they fight against things like gender neutral toilets, and trans rights, together with the right to pick one's own pronouns, leading to a situation when instead of two, facebook offers 58 genders (https://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlin...facebook-users ), as well as offering a "custom" option.

By pushing minor complaints like old TV shows that, TBH, people had probably forgotten until someone find some old tapes in an archive somewhere and put them on Cable TV, the Left are giving the right a weapon to use against them.
Spot on. Racial hatred, discrimination, etc is unacceptable. But trivialising the issue as befits ‘wokeism’ is morally indefensible.

The woke community will see off channels like ‘Talking Pictures’ if the government doesn’t step in to put an end to this nonsense soon.
