Obviously satire, dozy wankers

Honestly, I fucking like Clarkson.

Is he sometimes obnoxious? Yeah. Wrong? Definitely.

But like the role he's playing he's playing fucking amazingly. He's an entertainment person who doesn't have an entirely closed mind even though there's definitely a lot of shit in it. And he isn't overly political. Like he understands he can influence opinions a bit but he would never try to become a real politician. Would he?

He’s a racist, he assaults people over sandwiches and is a vile, right wing piece of shit. Glad you’re a fan of that.

Glad you’re a fan of that.

No, I'm not a fan of "that." I said I like Clarkson. I can like a pesron and disagree with them. If he was genuinely trying to be some sort of politican then I wouldn't, but now he's more or less just an average tier UK media personality.

Like I said, he's often obnoxious and wrong. But aside from punching that guy at BBC and being ideologically stuck in the 90's (which he basically does more or less for humour, but you can't do that for humour all the time without believing in it a little.)

I don't know. I get sort of nostalgia from laughing with that rude cunt. And I do mean "with" more than "at".

He gives sort of the vibes I had when I was little kid and dad still seemed cool. He turned out to be a somewhat stubborn pseudointellectual very stuck in conservative ways and not at all open minded. Compared to my late dad, Clarkson is pretty openminded.

You put my own thoughts into words. Clarkson reminds me a bit of my uncle.
