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."

"Anyone working on Australia day and not comforatable with profiting from ""Invasion Day"" this delightfull young lady has all the tips and advice on such matters....... https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/at-work/tiktok-user-suggests-australia-day-workers-could-donate-public-holiday-pay/news-story/6dae3317bb9a0932f121c6aa8faf6546 The Snowflake after her is just as cringe worthy. Got to love young modern day Aussies.....Was reading that the vast majority of people still support 26th January as Australia day, the only group that shows a high proportion of people wanting a change, and also a change of name!!! are the under 25,s......."

Sydney Iron. But you are openly racist on this site. You seem proud of it and unapologetic. You shouldn’t be anywhere near this thread. And Harry Potter has been given the green light to be made into a tv series with many of the characters being more diverse in ethnicity and LGBQ+. This is going to trigger so many of the older people on this site.

"Fraser. What has happened to Melbourne? We get daily feedback from my Mrs family and the place really is the WOKE centre of the world. Luckily,WA is far more relaxed about all this bollox. My boy says they see none of this where he is,even the Uni students in Perth,by and large refuse to join in. The Chinese must be loving it,they own huge chunks of a very prosperous country whose population is in serious mental and emotional declne"

It can’t be called Snow White if she is Latino.

"""Snow"" excludes, by scientific definition, liquid water and steam. This is heatist propaganda."

"Disney has responded to criticism of its forthcoming live action adaptation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs made by Game of Thrones actor Peter Dinklage. Dinklage said the remake of the 1937 animated film, based on story from the Brothers Grimm, was ""backward"". Disney said it was going to ""avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film"". Dinklage had said Disney should have reassessed the project. ""I was a little taken aback by [the fact] they were very proud to cast a Latina actress as Snow White,"" he told podcaster Marc Maron. ""But you're still telling the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"". Snow Not so White, more tanned looking than anything, and the Seven not very tall people then? Or is that waycist and heightist? Probably better not to bother with the story at all"

"Happy Australia Day! All joy and good will here today, the WOKE brigade have so far thrown red paint and vandilised a statue Of Captain Cook in Melbourne, the racist colonial white cսnt he was! Marches and demonstrations are soon to kick off the days festivities as the green, inner city woke unwashed lefty types object to anyone celebrating the 26th January or even calling it Australia day, its Invasion day dont you know! The day which marks the 1788 landing of the First Fleet at Sydney Cove ‚Äì amounts to a celebration of colonial white conquest, which preceded the Frontier Wars and the genocide of local indigenous populations. Old bill out in force and historical statues being guarded. What fucked up world we are becoming?"

"I seem to remember that Speilberg wanted the rights to film Harry Potter but J K Rowling blocked it or something due to him wanting to cast some of the main characters as Yanks. Taking this into consideration I find it doubtful she would have had a ""woke"" approach to it's production. In short the films may have never been made at all today. Sad times."

"They are already, 'consigned to history'. The Taming of the Shrew is a fucking comedy. And the characters being ridiculed were men dressed in women's clothes. The Merchant of Venice is not anti-Semitic. By the standards of its time, its rather the opposite. ‚ÄúIf you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?"" - Hardly othering, is it? Silly cսnt"

[arsene york-hunt]

Why teach kids Shakespeare when you could be teaching them critical race theory and black poetry?

[twoleftfeet]

"Some third rate actress who made her name starring in Shakespeare plays wants some of them "" consigned "" to history. Taming of the shrew - Misogynistic Merchant of Venice - Anti semitic I'm not a huge fan of his works but to ban them is a bit OTT."

The whole franchise would be swapped out in name to be Harlem Poitier with the surname being a tribute to the late great ground breaking black actor Sidney……

"The director of Royal Botanic Gardens Kew has said that the institution is an “exemplar” of the Government’s policy to retain contentious history, after removing a promise to “decolonise” from its manifesto for change. Speaking exclusively to The Telegraph, Richard Deverell said that the gardens’ plans to increase access and “improve equity” would go ahead as planned and were entirely in keeping with government policy. In March last year, Kew launched a 10-year “manifesto for change” that included a promise to “decolonise our collections”. That was subsequently rephrased to “re-examine our collections” following a backlash."

"Harry Potter and the half blood Prince , what would that look like ?"

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"Hermione might stay white but Ron and Harry would definitely be black, chinese, south Asian or mixed race as would all the other heroic male characters. A wise old black man like Morgan Freeman would play both Dumbledores. Beardie Hagrid would be played by a trans-gender person. Tom Felton's role as evil white boy would be safe, for sure, as would Alan Rickman's sinister Englishman."

[twoleftfeet]

Harry Potter would be transgender and formally known as Harriet Potter.

[Swiss.]

If Harry Potter was filmed today would the Weasley family be black instead of gingers? Or more likely Hermione would be black?
