Another night feed stretching into the early hours!

Anyway, was wondering what a culture war thread would look like on npr rather PR. Might be a little more conversation.

I’ll start us off with this

https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2020/ ... gale-court

A theatre in Birmingham, Uk has agreed to rent space to the ministry of justice to run some court cases to catch up on COVID related back log.

One of the resident theatre companies has quit this season’s shows in protest. The theatre company is for black artists.

That’s some serious schism, where merely sharing a building brings such a reaction.

Society feels so fucking divided at the moment.

Don't worry about it. It's pretty much only one side that stamps their feet and has a tantrum.

Off to a promising start.

Might I suggest just binning this off entirely? There'll never be any actual conversation and mutual understanding. PR's right there if people want to continue litigating the culture war.

Fair enough.
