In one or two of my recent nominations I have made mention to various YouTube channels, not least the rather excellent “Free Documentary” ones.
However, as is typical with the free version of You Tube you’re assailed with mind-numbing adverts. One of the most annoying involves this old luvvie who insists that we must donate millions of pounds to help the “millions” of refugees from around the world.
He is doing this on behalf of the International Rescue Committee, but as with all hugely wealthy celebs he lacks complete self-awareness while dictating to us “privileged” and relatively wealthy people in the West that the world’s ills are somehow our problem and that we should somehow atone for this by donating as much as we can.
I don’t believe Stewart lives in downtown Bradford, Leicester, Aston, Sheffield or some shithole London borough. No, he is probably safely ensconced in Hollywood and/or has a very nice home in the South East of England but well away from the snivelling masses – including those very same refugees!
If all the celebs, sports people and CEOs pooled some of their considerable finances together it would probably amass something in the billions – far more than what ordinary people could hope to contribute. Their billions and their influence would have far more resonance to fix these problems than we could ever hope to achieve!
A lot of these problems and conflicts have got little or nothing to do with us and yet we’re constantly berated for not doing enough.
Stewart and his privileged ilk should “Make it so!” and donate a few million/billion of their own money and leave us to struggle with our own problems, thank you very much!
