Journalism should be harder hitting.

Because we're in a time now where you can't just muck about, twiddle around the edges.

And anything that appears, and I'm just using this as a word because I can't think of a better one right now, but anything that appears centre right now does feel just totally irrelevant.

Like it really does.

It feels weak.

You know, everything from, you know,

The institutions that are meant to uphold international law, I mean, they seem so lacklustre and almost pathetic, feeble, you know what I mean?

And so, yeah, I mean, to make a real impact.

This is a slight tangent, but stick with me, right?

Okay, so now this is going to be uncomfortable because I'm going to say a thing, which is a sweeping generalisation and you're going to correct me.

But people always talk about the swinging 60s, right?

But when you actually look at how many people attended these clubs, it wasn't that many.

It was a subculture in the 60s, but we had this idea that everyone was doing it.

And that's not always been the case.

And I wonder if deep down there's loads of quite just normal people who believe that

That if they were in the 60s, they'd be in the swinging 60s.

That if it was the war, they'd be in the resistance.

And they have this idea of themselves.

And so part of this political correctness thing is just to appeal to this, I was actually a punk.

No, you weren't a punk.
