🚨NEWS: The BBC have removed a number of sketches by Mitchell & Webb as they are now deemed offensive
This sketch which features a Burqa and Blackface purposefully to make fun of how offended people get has now been ironically axed, because people may be offended.
@gubin_nn It’s like a sneeze. The tickle, the buildup, the release. The tickle isn’t bad, but you wouldn’t wanna stay stuck at that part. The build up is nice because you know the relief is coming but again—a horrible place to end. Then the release. Although you don’t cry after a sneeze.
A Nova Scotia woman had precancerous cells on her cervix.
That was two years ago.
Pap smear. Abnormal cells. Referral to a gynecologist so they could find out if it was cancer. The referral sat for nine months.
She finally gets an appointment. She shows up on time — 10 a.m., in her calendar. The office says it was at 9. Won’t see her. Won’t reschedule. Start over. New referral.
She leaves crying. Seven more months go by. They call about an appointment she was never told about. She can’t take it.
She’s on a TV contract. Miss it and they can sue her.
Next opening: next year.
They don’t even call her back. She has to chase them.
She said the quiet part out loud: imagine dying of cervical cancer while you wait just to see a gyno.
That is Canada’s “universal healthcare.”
Not free care. A government monopoly that loses your referral, punishes you for their scheduling error, and hands a possible cancer case a calendar date in another year.
Coverage on paper. Care on a waitlist. You pay the taxes either way. The state decides when you’re allowed to find out if you have cancer.
This is the model they want to import as Medicare for All.
Don’t.
@dwightb0y@82828919193838g@Burnouts3s3 Also—I don’t care if white women date black guys, so I’m not sure what that screenshot is about. My entire point was who gives a fuck what race you prefer to date?
