Woke watch

[arsene york-hunt]

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Nobody gave a fuck about the statue in Bristol or any others until George Floyd was killed.

"Not like anybody has to seek hospital treatment for what is said on here, is it? Asking for a snowflake."

"Mob rule? Certainly not - definitely like we don't have on hear, right?"

[Mad Dog]

"Did they have permission then? No. Whether you, or i, or they like it or not, it shouldn't be up to mob rule."

[Hammer and Pickle]

"As far as I can tell the statue in question was that of a slave trader and the focus of a great deal of controversy in Bristol. What sentence would have satisfied you, arsene? By the way, you used to be a sensible poster. May I ask what happened?"

[Mike Oxsaw]

"Labour peer moonlighting as a taxi cab driver? Possible, I guess."

[arsene york-hunt]

Those twats that toppled the statue in Bristol have all got off. What the fuck is this country coming to. They all seem to be white and middle class..

Here’s one for winstone to sweep under the carpet A former Labour peer has been found guilty of sexual offences against two children in the 1970s. Lord Ahmed of Rotherham was convicted of a serious sexual assault against a boy and the attempted rape of a young girl.

"Speaking of Harry Potter earlier.... Jon Stewart calls JK Rowling’s portrayal of Gringotts goblins in Harry Potter ‘antisemitic’ https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/jon-stewart-jk-rowling-antisemitism-b1986955.html Some of his quotes are genuinely hilarious. ""Stewart’s argument – that Rowling perpetuates anti-Jew stereotypes in Harry Potter – was based on the similarities between the books’ goblin creatures and an illustration from an antisemitic text,The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, published in 1903. Stewart, who is Jewish, said most Harry Potter fans were unaware of the reference, while expressing confusion over the lack of outrage over the Gringotts’ goblin bankers in the movies"""

Is dropping an egg-powered SBD at school assembly regarded as woke or expanding the boundaries of learning? Asking for a (farty) friend.

"Jane Eyre was also the basis for the film I Walked With A Zombie, which was one of the first ever woke movies (as in woke from the dead)."

[Tomshardware]

Suzanna Hamilton has an impressive muff in the film 1984.

[Nurse Ratched]

Definitely recommend it. Jane Eyre is indeed very fine.

[Darby_]

"Ah, fair enough, although I think my title is better. I'll give it a try if you recommend it. Jane Eyre is a frighteningly good book."

[Nurse Ratched]

It's 'Wide Sargasso Sea'. Jean Rhys. Bloody good book.

"I'd imagine the feminist version will be read by about 100 people, all of them already feminists, so I'm not sure what the fuss is about. It might be interesting, but probably won't be. Classics are often reinterpreted or inspire spinoffs. Shakespeare has been reinterpreted in a million different ways. Jane Eyre inspired ""Wild Saragossa Sea"" which is the same set of events from a different character's perspective. It's really a tribute to the original author that someone else goes to the trouble to explore it from a different perspective."

Les mateaux : He's just taking the piss out the right wing snowflakes on this thread.

"Capitol Man 2:48 Sun Jan 2 I think on the whole its just people taking the piss out of all this wokery and gender nonsense etc rather than having a whine about hurt feelings LOL Maybe take your own advise and grab those tampons? I would find it equally absurd if some bloke decided to a version of The Female Eunuch from “a male perspective” Although granted the author, Germaine Greer seems to have gone from the Godmother of feminism to being despised by them as some kind of traitor, along with JK Rowling just about sums up modern absurdity."

"Capitol Man 2:48 Sun Jan 2 Do you not find a sad ageing man posting repeatedly on a football website disgustingly sexist references to menstruation, and comparing those with whom he disagrees with as women, because they have different views, a little embarrassing then"

[Capitol Man]

"White Pony 1:11 Sun Jan 2 Re: Woke watch You don’t find a bunch of sad, middle-aged men getting together for a bit of a whine to express their hurt feelings that they are not the only center of the universe a little bit embarrassing them?"
