    I think it is hard for a British news outlet to give their readers a reality check and bash them all in one go without some offramp. The amount of people who would thank for a wake uo call like that is much smaller than the group of conservatives snowflakes who can not deal with criticism and would be enraged.

      It also frames it as something that you can easily change. If it was “always have been” people would be more likely to shrug and say “whelp, seems we will never change”. Kind of reminds me of how they frame climate change stuff now.
