Clarkson

I immediately recognised Jeremy Clarkson's Game of Thrones Reference in relation to what he said about Meghan Markle (or should we not call her Meghan Windsor?), but then I saw Game of Thrones. It was nevertheless still vile and condemned by even his daughter.

Clarkson opined that everyone of his age thinks the same of Meghan, which from the backlash is patently untrue, unless he possibly means everyone with exactly the same date, time and location of birth.

There are decent people; there are people who may be decent, but are paid to stir up hate; there are those who hate purely because they allow their opinions to be formed by those who are paid to stir up hate and there are people who are consumed by hate due to their own inadequacies.

"Because no one's opinions are quite what he wills them to be, no one's beliefs are quite what he wills them to be. In other words, our opinions and beliefs are formed by something more than what we consciously decide." That was said in 1486 by Pico della Mirandola. 

We have surely reached a stage where a runaway free press, especially the gutter press, needs a proper regulator with teeth.
