We could call it 'conversion therapy'

2020-01-27 18:28:31 UTC

I'm simply shocked the newspaper funded by teacher's unions who specifically lobbied against school vouchers don't like the vouchers program

2020-01-27 18:28:51 UTC

2020-01-27 18:29:01 UTC

2020-01-27 18:29:09 UTC  

They have those for autistic kids, actually

2020-01-27 18:31:53 UTC  

Kevin told me about it, he said it helped him start doing better in school.

I die a little inside every time I see an article from BBC Pidgin.

2020-01-27 21:06:28 UTC  

Why is that a thing?

2020-01-27 21:06:42 UTC  

I mean, who's reading it??

2020-01-27 21:06:49 UTC  

Pigeons

2020-01-27 21:08:15 UTC  

@wolfman1911 Wait till you see the BBC Pidgin videos.

2020-01-27 21:08:40 UTC  

Well, it is the BBC, which is government funded, so 'absolutely nobody' entirely possible.

2020-01-27 21:09:02 UTC  

Tell me you aren't serious McFansy. Please, lie if you must.

2020-01-27 21:12:53 UTC  

I do appreciate one thing.

2020-01-27 21:12:59 UTC  

Dear God. . .

2020-01-27 21:13:07 UTC  

They do say its hard to write Pidgeon since it follows no rules and has no real written form.

2020-01-27 21:13:19 UTC  

So just fuck it I guess!

2020-01-27 21:13:52 UTC  

Does anyone else feel like they are living in a cargo cult version of a civilization?

2020-01-27 21:14:20 UTC  

As I understand it, Pidgin itself is a big 'fuck it I guess!'

2020-01-27 21:15:14 UTC  

Considering that it basically originated as a trade language so that traders could communicate with people who didn't speak English.

2020-01-27 21:15:20 UTC  

Swing low, sweet chariot...

2020-01-27 21:16:02 UTC  
2020-01-27 21:16:05 UTC  

Now it's just gibberish for people that can't be bothered.

2020-01-27 21:20:12 UTC  

"Stop raping girls. But more importantly, stop making them feel bad."

2020-01-27 21:20:14 UTC  

Wait what

2020-01-27 21:21:56 UTC  

The first 9 seconds killed me. "No allow anybody talk you into say you you you weak, girls and boys are different. Girls and boys got equal rights."

2020-01-27 21:30:04 UTC  

It took me longer than I care to admit to determine whether that was Pidgin or if they were just providing subtitles because she was unintelligible.

2020-01-27 21:30:10 UTC  

Her story of how she's a badass fighter is one time she and a group of people together beat up one thief.

2020-01-27 21:30:16 UTC  

It doesn't exactly inspire awe.

2020-01-27 21:32:21 UTC  

I'm glad BBC Pidgin exists it's the one thing BBC make that's worth the licence fee its always good for a laugh
