A massive struggle session has appeared in the UK left with arguments over defending the BBC or not now that it has been announced that the tv license might be gone by 2027.

The factions seem to be:

A "But it makes good entertainment and documentaries and music and puts lgbt people in shows"

B "Yeah but none of that has anything to do with the extreme political harm it clearly does".

I am in faction B and have no idea how to get through to the first faction. Libs obviously also support the first faction.

I assume Hexbear being anti-treats lately would also be in faction B but could be wrong.

What are your thoughts on the topic overall?

    I wish I'd thought that when I argued with this lib.

    I was so dumbfounded I guess I blanked. I don't know. I'm struggling. I ended up removing half the thread because of all the upvoted lib shit. We even had monarchists sticking their 2 cents in.

    We don't have a strong enough core of posters to fight these topics and are losing them.
