      All it took in the US was Mr. Fucking Rogers to go before Congress to get them to fund PBS. It’s been aggressively targeted since and now the Corp/Conservatives are using culture wars bigot dogwhistles to say it advances LGBTQ causes, since those have also been programmed into right wing news to be synonymous with pedophilia. Interestingly, or course, most of the flock goes to church but I digress…

      Don’t let them defund it.
