GB News (New British News Network)

*Precision I have no political affiliation. I subscribe to no political dogma or movement. I have highlighted this new news channel as a much needed antidote to the partisan news we are currently subjected to. Will it be free from bias? No, but at least we all get to see the extremes of both sides of the political divide. I get my news from an entirely independant team  who are committed to delivering non-partisan, professional journalism. Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar. It's a fearless anti-establishment Youtube show and podcast with contributors from across the political divide. Their aim is to cut through the media bias. Breaking Points Non-Partisan News & Analysis Precision*

Britain's got a new TV network. The new British network has vowed to fight "cancel culture" and reflect voices not heard in the partisan mainstream media and state-controlled BBC. A spokesperson for GB News said its aim was to "puncture the pomposity of our elites in politics, business, media and academia and expose their growing promotion of cancel culture for the threat to free speech and democracy that it is". 

Cancel Culture is the term given to left-wing and left-leaning attempts at suppressing of free expression and political diversity by permanently shaming and ostracising individuals who threaten their political and social orthodoxy.

  • Well, this entire thread just ruined somewhere that I previously felt safe from the political name-calling and terrible rhetoric surrounding it. I don't feel posting an advertisement for a politically motivated news show (of either side) is right for an Autism forum, but it's the comments that mean I no longer feel safe expressing my views and asking for help somewhere where I know if I was to be entirely open I would be roundly dismissed and derided for my personal views and experiences. Honestly, I thought this was somewhere to help, talk, and process autistic issues but apparently, it's not the safe space I thought.

    I think the rhetoric on both sides was pretty nasty, this wasn't a response to not liking the comments on a single side I just thought I was in a safe space that was apparently wrong but if this is everyone's idea of "respectful debate" as stated in the rules, then apparently the Autistic Society Forums isn't for me. 

  • This is what humans are like. I prefer cats and machines.
