Lutheran Commonwealth wrote:Media: More "Right-wing humor" and fewer Trump jokes on the BBC

There is too much joke about the Conservatives and Donald Trump on the BBC, according to the right wing in England. According to the newspaper The Telegraph, several popular satire programs may be in danger after the channel's new boss has announced changes.

https://translate.google.no/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nrk.no%2Furix%2Fmedier_-mer-_hoyre-humor_-og-faerre-trump-vitser-pa-bbc-1.15144572

Specifically its the new BBC boss noting that comedy shows have a strong anti Trump bias, and saying intend to address that. The BBC actually has a requirement under law to work to avoid being biased, unlike most media organisations. Of course, in general comedians tend to be left wing, and in general the vast majority of people in the UK dislike Trump. That makes for a tricky balance. Does avoiding bias mean reflecting a cross section of the British public and a cross section of comedians? Because its probably slightly to the right of tbe British public. Or does it mean being as close to the global centre ground? Because its way to the left of that.

Ultimately, the dream of nonbias is unattainable, but perhaps the important thing is that they are making the effort.

My personal view is that the BBC should only seek to show both sides, but can comment on what they believe to be right, and that they should only be to the centre of British politics, not world politics. After all no one expects them to have a pro North Korean government opinion for every criticism they level. Or to say that homeopathy is equal to medicine just for balance. No, rather they should be interested in truth, and in reflecting the nation, and truth is almost all of us in the UK dislike Trump.

For balance though, I should point out that while at last survey trumps approval here was around 21 percent (around a third of Obama, by comparison) ole Bernie Sanders does even worse at 19 percent. Biden, I think there s been no solid poll yet, but I think broadly the UK opinion is "anyone who is not Trump will do"

The BBC is decidedly left wing compared to the British public, I'm not sure how you can say otherwise. (This is coming from someone who, oddly enough, follows the BBC more than any other news organization despite being American and an Old Tory, I am an Anglo-American afterall). Their bias is so obvious almost every day on their homepage, in their headlines, in their writing. I'll grant you that the radio programs and even the broadcasting tend to be a bit more unbiased, but the website doesn't even try (at least it certainly doesn't look like it).

I do however agree with some of your other points: it would be impossible for the BBC to be "unbiased" concerning the world population, as, whether they like it or not, they are coming at it mostly from a British perspective no matter how many bureaus they have around the world. Still, they do have some responsibility, I would argue, to being as unbiased as possible when covering the rest of the Anglophone world, which includes the United States. The BBC's reach in those countries is considerable and their politics and societies often closely reflect Britain's. That and, as Yes Prime Minister cynically puts it, Britain isn't much more than an American missile base. For a counterpoint, the Grauniad very directly addresses Americans and even has customized advertising for viewers here.

Horatius Cocles and The final sith order

Hello!

Horatius Cocles and The final sith order

Hello! I wish to show to you a law which I made in my main nation in nation states:

After the controversy of polygamous marriage law allowing for homosexual relationships, through ban on same sex marriage, into another controversy regarding trans-sexual people ended with a law which orders all trans-sexual citizens above 16 to undergo surgery which would change their organs in order to fit their gender on behalf of the state. This law is in the end supposed to end the quarrel and problems on that topic once and for all.

    Definitions:
  1. This document officially defines sex as physical sexual state of an individual of any species which multiplies sexually.

  2. This document officially defines gender as psychological identification with one of the two natural sexes, or somewhere in between them.

  3. This document officially defines trans-sexual as a person which was born with their sex different than their gender.

  4. This document officially defines people with no gender, also known as a-gender or non-gender as non-trans-sexual.

  5. This document officially defines transition surgery as a surgery which is supposed to change the sex of an individual.

  6. This document officially defines legal age, age of consent and the age of becoming legally independent from your parents, as the age of 16 years from birth, including the exact day, hour and minute, counting from the first breath, be it natural or artificial. If such exact data is not available, it will be counted from the next hour, day, month, or year from the one known, in order to make sure that the person is for sure of that age and not younger.

    Transitions:

  7. Any individual of the age 16 and above, that legally proves that their gender does not align with their current sex must undergo a surgery of transition funded by the state.

  8. Any individual after the surgery of transition must gain new documentation and a proper mark on their data which states their new sex.

  9. Any individual may legally refuse to treat individuals after transition surgery with the same amount of sexual affection as people born with that sex.

  10. Any individual after the surgery of transition must be legally treated as a person of their new sex.

  11. Any individual after the surgery of transition has the legal right to ask to be addressed according to their new sex.

    Marriage:

  12. From now on any individuals of any religion may legally marry according to the ways their religion defines marriage and its boundaries. Weather it be by sex, or gender, including all forms of sexual orientations if needed, with the exception of marriage under the age of 16, which is strictly forbidden within Khazar lechia.

  13. From now on any number of individuals may marry within the same marriage as long as all within it consent to it, effectively making polygamous marriage and polyandrous marriage legal.

  14. No individual may marry anyone without their consent and a marriage later proven to be without consent is nullified and all acts within it can be pushed into legal action if needed.

  15. Sex outside of marriage may be pushed into legal action, especially by a spouse who has not consented to their partner being involved in said acts.

  16. Divorce can be legally issued according to the religious laws of the member of marriage who issues for divorce.

    Parenthood:

  17. Any child born within any marriage, must be tested to prove their actual parents, who get the legal rights of birth-parents.

  18. Any child born outside of marriage is not tested and only its mother gets legal rights of a birth-parent.

  19. Birth-parents may legally issue other members of their marriage to be child's parents.

  20. If no parent can be found within the marriage of the mother, the woman who gave birth to it will be its birth-parent.

  21. If a pregnant woman proves to have been raped, she must be legally given state-funded therapy and if needed according to her therapist, she may choose to abort the child.

  22. If a pregnant woman may die, or be seriously harmed during child-birth as proven by a medical professional, she may choose to abort the child.

  23. Any woman which choose not to abort her child despite the circumstances mentioned above, will be given a medal of "Saint Myriam" for being a venerable mother and treated as a national hero.

  24. Parents can legally circumcise their male children according to the rules of their religion.

  25. Female circumcision of a child is a crime, even if consented by parents, who will be stripped of their legal status if said event occurs, even if said mother used to be regarded as a venerable mother before that.

  26. Child abuse is a crime, even if consented by parents, who will be stripped of their legal status if said event occurs, even if said mother used to be regarded as a venerable mother before that.

  27. All children who lack parents will be protected by the state, until the age of 16.

Read factbook

It basically prevents abortion, with exceptions. It also regards tons of other laws. I am somewhat proud of this law, even though it has been written in character for roleplay. I wish to discuss it a bit if you don't mind. Feel free to comment on it and the likes, even if you do not agree with pro-life laws in general, you might be positively surprised by it...

The final sith order

Hello, here are your updated stock values. Now’s the time to invest in your own or other peoples’ companies, gain karma points, register with a bank, deposit or withdraw, submit companies, buy power ups, shares, loans or just scroll past this message if you want. Some new additions are listed in spoilers for your own good

I’ve added banks recently to add a bit more strategy to the stock market. Basically, you can deposit some of your stock points and withdraw them whenever you want. This is strategical because you could deposit some of your money and withdraw them for the future, or you could not deposit and gain value right now. You could also buy loans from the bank of your choosing, which will be paid back with credit within two weeks. One credit point is equal to 100 stock points of profits and vice versa, currently, the price for a loan sits at 1 credit point per 1 million dollars, so if you want to receive a loan of 100 million dollars, you’ll have to pay 100 credit points within a month to the bank. Credit points and stock points are two very different things, so if you spend credit points, you’re not spending stock points, and vice versa. Also, you buy loans for free, credit is the payment. No other payment is necessary. If you don’t pay a certain amount of your monthly profits to the bank that gave you the loan, then your company will go into debt.
Three companies this week have officially fallen below the 5K point minimum to be on the market, meaning they’ll no longer be listed in the stock market unless there’s activity again from the companies’ owners. This is a message to all members of the stock market to care about your companies or else you’ll dive right into the Inter Regional Primary Stock and Financial Support Market.
IRPSFSM

Hello guys, I’m Peepeepoopoocaca and welcome to the Inter Regional Primary Stock and Financial Support Market! Those companies that find themselves on here have been through hard times recently, but that’s okay, because here in this market, everyone’s in this together, and if we all work hard enough, we might make it back to the Inter Regional Stock Market! All companies on here fell below 5K points in the premier stock market, meaning they could not be invested in any more due to a lack of stocks. The algorithm here works a little differently, as the factor of external investment does not exist, instead, the only way to gain in value is through other companies’ or your own investments, karma points, loans, and that’s it. So instead of rising by 7K because of an investment, you now only rise depending on your investment size and just that for example. There are different banks here as opposed to the banks of the premier stock market, but aside from that almost everything works the same. To get back to the Inter Regional Stock Market, you’ll have to have your company value back up to more than 5K points, but if it falls below 1K, your company will be relegated to the Inter Regional Supplementary Financial Aid and Development Market. One point is equal to a million dollars.
Every investment by a nation into a company that doesn’t belong to them will be rewarded with karma points. The nation receives 500 Karma points for an investment in between 1 and 10 million dollars, 750 for an investment in between 10 and 50 million dollars, and 1K for every investment above 50 million. Karma points are transferred to stock points and are added onto the nation’s companies’ values.
In addition to the karma points system, there will also be another type of external investment. They’re called shares, which essentially means that the company you invest in has to repay you in the form of a dividend. A dividend is calculated using a percentage system, which means that a nation’s share is also it’s dividend. For example, if a nation holds a 20% share of a company, then the company being invested in needs to give the shareholder 20% of weekly profits. So if that company makes 10k points in a week, 2k go to the shareholder. Dividends and shares investments are overall pretty good as they don’t have to be renewed as frequently as karma investments, but they require more negotiation, as the shareholder nation and company representative nation both need to agree on the terms of the investment. The shareholder now possesses a share in said company, and they can sell shares whenever they feel they don’t need said share anymore, for example, when a company’s doing poorly. Shares that are sold on the market are registered as initial public offerings, or IPOs. The revenue that a shareholding nation makes is added to their companies’ totals. The number in brackets besides the listed shares down below is the current revenue being made by that company’s share.
There will be banks stationed across PPPPCC and elsewhere that will help to fund and monetarily aid the companies in the stock market. A good way to do this will be through loans, which will be eventually paid back by interest. To buy a loan, first choose a bank in which you will form a partnership with and buy loans from them in the future. This bank is now called your ‘partnership bank’. Now, specify the amount of money that will be required to fund the buyer’s project(s), and then, you’re expected to pay back a certain amount of interest within a certain time span. One credit point is equal to 10 stock points and vice versa. On top of this, companies will be able to deposit any money (aka stock points) they currently posses to the bank, and withdraw it whenever they please. As a side note, you’re allowed to change your partnership bank whenever you want, but you have to make an agreement with both banks.
This stock market’s plan is to give companies a fair chance and open up in new lands with new markets and new opportunities. This will never be a stock market established due to corporate greed. We shall never deny a guest, even the most ridiculous request.

CELEBRATING 1000 READS!
This stock market will be for companies from nations in the Labyrinth’s embassy regions to expand and make more money. Through the stock market, values will determine investments and due to the wide accessibility of this stock market, companies are guaranteed to make at least some sort of profit. The number besides the company is it’s value in the stock market, one point is equal to 1 million Jilars. The money companies earn will not come from the state, instead, they will come from the revenue made from their products, locations, or to put it simply, from the client. The + or - sign besides the companies indicate whether the company’s value has risen or fallen since last week’s report. The number besides the + or - signs indicates by exactly how much it rose or fell.
In addition, every company on the stock market will get a weekly pay of 100 million Jilars. 85% of the stock market’s profits will go to the companies while 15% will go to PeePeePooPooCaCa. The nation with the largest company in each sector of the market receives a trading card, nations are limited to one card. The card is uncommon if the sector has less than five different nations, rare if it has more than five but less than ten, and epic/legendary if the sector has more than 10 nations.
Every investment by a nation into a company that doesn’t belong to them will be rewarded with karma points. The nation receives 1k for an investment lower than 500 million dollars, 2k for an investment between 500 million and 999,999,999, and 3k for an investment above 1 billion. Karma points are transferred to stock points and are added onto the nation’s companies’ values.
Nations can also buy power ups to boost companies’ values. There shall be four original power ups, but more can be added by other nations if Peepeepoopoocaca approves of them. The creator of a new power up can use it for free the first time he or she wants it. Otherwise, all nations wishing to buy a power up should pay its fee using the nation’s companies’ stock points. The nation does not have a bought power up anymore if he or she don’t pay the power up’s renewal fee in time, or Peepeepoopoocaca decides to terminate the nation’s power up privilege. All power ups shall be bought in the shop down below.
In addition to the karma points system, there will also be another type of external investment. They’re called shares, which essentially means that the company you invest in has to repay you in the form of a dividend. A dividend is calculated using a percentage system, which means that a nation’s share is also it’s dividend. For example, if a nation holds a 20% share of a company, then the company being invested in needs to give the shareholder 20% of weekly profits.

Shares that are sold on the market are registered as initial public offerings, or IPOs. The number in brackets besides the listed shares down below is the current revenue being made by that company’s share, which is the same as the share price. The whole point of buying and seeking shares is to buy at low prices, and sell at high prices whenever the stockholder honks it’s right.
There will be banks stationed across PPPPCC and elsewhere that will help to fund and monetarily aid the companies in the stock market. A good way to do this will be through loans, which will be eventually paid back by interest.

The final sith order

Slavic lechia wrote:Hello! I wish to show to you a law which I made in my main nation in nation states:
After the controversy of polygamous marriage law allowing for homosexual relationships, through ban on same sex marriage, into another controversy regarding trans-sexual people ended with a law which orders all trans-sexual citizens above 16 to undergo surgery which would change their organs in order to fit their gender on behalf of the state. This law is in the end supposed to end the quarrel and problems on that topic once and for all.

    Definitions:
  1. This document officially defines sex as physical sexual state of an individual of any species which multiplies sexually.

  2. This document officially defines gender as psychological identification with one of the two natural sexes, or somewhere in between them.

  3. This document officially defines trans-sexual as a person which was born with their sex different than their gender.

  4. This document officially defines people with no gender, also known as a-gender or non-gender as non-trans-sexual.

  5. This document officially defines transition surgery as a surgery which is supposed to change the sex of an individual.

  6. This document officially defines legal age, age of consent and the age of becoming legally independent from your parents, as the age of 16 years from birth, including the exact day, hour and minute, counting from the first breath, be it natural or artificial. If such exact data is not available, it will be counted from the next hour, day, month, or year from the one known, in order to make sure that the person is for sure of that age and not younger.

    Transitions:

  7. Any individual of the age 16 and above, that legally proves that their gender does not align with their current sex must undergo a surgery of transition funded by the state.

  8. Any individual after the surgery of transition must gain new documentation and a proper mark on their data which states their new sex.

  9. Any individual may legally refuse to treat individuals after transition surgery with the same amount of sexual affection as people born with that sex.

  10. Any individual after the surgery of transition must be legally treated as a person of their new sex.

  11. Any individual after the surgery of transition has the legal right to ask to be addressed according to their new sex.

    Marriage:

  12. From now on any individuals of any religion may legally marry according to the ways their religion defines marriage and its boundaries. Weather it be by sex, or gender, including all forms of sexual orientations if needed, with the exception of marriage under the age of 16, which is strictly forbidden within Khazar lechia.

  13. From now on any number of individuals may marry within the same marriage as long as all within it consent to it, effectively making polygamous marriage and polyandrous marriage legal.

  14. No individual may marry anyone without their consent and a marriage later proven to be without consent is nullified and all acts within it can be pushed into legal action if needed.

  15. Sex outside of marriage may be pushed into legal action, especially by a spouse who has not consented to their partner being involved in said acts.

  16. Divorce can be legally issued according to the religious laws of the member of marriage who issues for divorce.

    Parenthood:

  17. Any child born within any marriage, must be tested to prove their actual parents, who get the legal rights of birth-parents.

  18. Any child born outside of marriage is not tested and only its mother gets legal rights of a birth-parent.

  19. Birth-parents may legally issue other members of their marriage to be child's parents.

  20. If no parent can be found within the marriage of the mother, the woman who gave birth to it will be its birth-parent.

  21. If a pregnant woman proves to have been raped, she must be legally given state-funded therapy and if needed according to her therapist, she may choose to abort the child.

  22. If a pregnant woman may die, or be seriously harmed during child-birth as proven by a medical professional, she may choose to abort the child.

  23. Any woman which choose not to abort her child despite the circumstances mentioned above, will be given a medal of "Saint Myriam" for being a venerable mother and treated as a national hero.

  24. Parents can legally circumcise their male children according to the rules of their religion.

  25. Female circumcision of a child is a crime, even if consented by parents, who will be stripped of their legal status if said event occurs, even if said mother used to be regarded as a venerable mother before that.

  26. Child abuse is a crime, even if consented by parents, who will be stripped of their legal status if said event occurs, even if said mother used to be regarded as a venerable mother before that.

  27. All children who lack parents will be protected by the state, until the age of 16.

Read factbook

It basically prevents abortion, with exceptions. It also regards tons of other laws. I am somewhat proud of this law, even though it has been written in character for roleplay. I wish to discuss it a bit if you don't mind. Feel free to comment on it and the likes, even if you do not agree with pro-life laws in general, you might be positively surprised by it...

An interesting read. Some thoughts:

Government-mandated 'transition surgery' "on behalf of the state" sounds rather horrifying.

Not so much horrifying but disturbing on some level would be point twenty-one seeming to discard the will of the victim if they do not wish to be given therapy.

On the matter of marriage, setting aside cultural issues, there is the question on unrestricted polygamous and/or group marriage of what exactly government recognition of marriage entails. If there are financial aspects to recognition in particular, such as tax deductions or credits, one could see something like 'corporate marriage' being used to abuse loopholes.

Point twenty-three is an interesting one. I understand seeking to create an incentive structure, but it does come off as a bit odd, and may create perverse incentives (false allegations of rape, namely, or falsified medical reports).

Point ten combined with point twenty-five could allow for retroactive legal action against one's parents.

Point seventeen seems rather intrusive.

Point eighteen is an interesting one, I actually rather like it in some ways.

You can claim you don't need it, or claim you are fine with your sex. Only moment when it's mandated is when someone officially legally states they are transgender. It may be a bit too far, but my goal was not to make a perfect law, but to fit that law into the country I created, which is completely religious, or esotheric if you may. Philosophy is tought from elementary school and thus people who reject their own bodies were a matter of discussions between scholars... In the end all the religious scholars decided to "fix" the problem. They quoted some Bible and Quran with throwing away your limbs if they make you feel bad and here's the law.

Roborian wrote:Not so much horrifying but disturbing on some level would be point twenty-one seeming to discard the will of the victim if they do not wish to be given therapy.

That is because being given a state-funded therapy, does not mean using it.

There is no benefits of marriage other than religious. Only state-recognized religions are allowed to set laws of marriage. Main thing being, they must be monotheist and to some extent Abrahamic. This is very broad though, as Manicheanism and Zoroastrianism are recognized as state religions.

Roborian wrote:Point twenty-three is an interesting one. I understand seeking to create an incentive structure, but it does come off as a bit odd, and may create perverse incentives (false allegations of rape, namely, or falsified medical reports).

100% of medical institutions are either part of the military, or the legal system. There is no three different state bodies, like healthcare being different from law enforcement. There is just Order Enforcement which takes care of it all, which is a part of military, which serves for internal matters. There are also Tengri Medikter, but they are completely different story...

Roborian wrote:Point ten combined with point twenty-five could allow for retroactive legal action against one's parents.

Only the sex of the child during the procedure is valid. There is an obvious point within the document which states that "after" the transition the person is recognized as their new sex. Anything that happened before is still recognized as the previous sex.

Roborian wrote:Point seventeen seems rather intrusive.

It is... That's because privacy is nonexistent in Khazar lechia and the state officially does not hide it. People are used to it though, as it surprisingly is seen as freedom. It's based on the collectivist cultures of ancient Khazars and Slavs, which did not hold privacy as sacred and even they invited people over to see their "first night" after marriage... Yes this exact thing is in the law of Khazar lechia too, but in a different factbook.

Roborian wrote:Point eighteen is an interesting one, I actually rather like it in some ways.

That's because it's assumed she did not agree to having the child, or at least assumes the father did not care enough to take care of it.

Thank you for getting into a discussion about this. It took me hours to lead my role-play into the creation of this document. The country itself is very different from the standard western ideas and is based on eastern European parts of cultures which are long dead in our world. I'm not saying it's a country of my dreams, but I'm not saying it's hell either. I just wanted to create a country which could have existed if Khazars and Slavs were not islamized and westernized. I also assumed they combined like Bolghars did in our world.

Well, we don’t know the exchange rate.

In other news, I am utterly amazed by the fact that people think personal attacks change minds. I saw one of those “well, if you were REALLY pro-life you’d support” blah blah blah including being anti-capitalism. As a social democrat sympathetic to most attacks on capitalism, I would say nothing has made me more likely to revert to supporting laissez-faire than reading this bull. I do not think the vast majority of people my age (young people) are capable of understanding that different conclusions can be drawn from the same data. You support guns? No, it can’t be about self defense or that you think they actually save lives. You must like school shootings. You support capitalism? It can’t be that you think free markets enrich people - you must hate the poor!

Hilariously, these are relativists angry at people for pushing morals on others.

There’s no more argumentation about what the facts mean anymore, it’s just obvious and people who disagree are bigots. Projection if I ever saw it.

The final sith order

In other news, one benefit of quarantine has been my re-engaging with the works of Wendell Berry. If any of you would like to read a book of his, I highly recommend "The Art of the Commonplace." Another work "The Hidden Wound" is remarkably prescient when you think of the recent racial justice demonstrations that have been going on.

Saw this on a BBC summary of Trump books and burst out laughing:
"The capo di tutti capi, the one-anecdote-to-rule-them-all, goes to Sims, who says that a small wooden box with a red button inside can often be found on the president's desk in the Oval Office.

"If Trump noticed someone glancing at the box... he would pick it up and move it further away from himself. 'Don't worry about that,' he'd say. 'No one wants me to push that button.'"

"Guests would laugh nervously and the conversation would continue, until several minutes later Trump would suddenly move it closer to him without actually saying anything about it. Then, later in the conversation, out of nowhere, he'd suddenly press the button. Not sure what to do, guests would look at one another with raised eyebrows. Moments later, a steward would enter the room carrying a glass filled with Diet Coke on a silver platter, and Trump would burst out laughing."

Believe the automatic righteousness
of whoever holds office. Believe
the officials who see without doubt
that peace is assured by war, freedom
by oppression. The truth preserved by lying
becomes a lie. Believe or die.

In the name of ourselves we ride
at the wheels of our engines,
in the name of Plenty devouring all,
the exhaust of our progress falling
deadly on villages and fields
we do not see. We are prepared
for millions of little deaths.

Where are the quiet plenteous dwellings
we were coming to, the neighborly dwellings?
We see the American freedom defended
with lies, and the lies defended
with blood, the vision of Jefferson
served by the agony of children,
women cowering in holes.

If they start flaming and/or trolling, we report their posts and/or ban them. If they want to discuss the issue of abortion (or anything else), we discuss it. If they just say "hey, I'm pro-choice" and then go quiet (like some visitors have), then nothing happens.

Really, we don't treat them any differently than anyone else.

Ah, I see.

This is a pretty decent region I can say.

Looks like the PCs got the majority they wanted in my province. I’m surprised they weren’t really punished for calling an election during an election.

Let me share my favourite fiction within SCP universe... https://youtu.be/_GbFpfq94oY

This somewhat has a theme of life, as opposed to most SCPs being killers or murderous objects, this one is surprisingly a giver of transcendence...

I like to say that if I could take only one object with me to "x" scenario, but it is whatever I want, I say that I want the fluid from this SCP. I would just drink it and undergo apotheosis...

I know that apotheosis is against most religions and christianity only speaks about theosis, which is joining God rather than becoming one, but still I love this work of fiction.

Anyone watch the UAE-Israel-Bahrain deal ceremony?
