Woke watch
"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."

"mim Not wanting to provoke racist chants in any way but, working from your theory, if black Americans think white people are “cunts” then work back from there, isn’t that racism? Of course it is but someone will have told her by now that she was wrong about 2 weeks holiday, so, did she apologise?"
Re: Woke watch
That’s a terrific summary mom. Never heard it described that way but I’ll plagiarise it!

"Whatever you wanna call it it serves the same purpose as cryptic religious framework used to justify all sorts throughout history. You're not gonna defeat it with reason any more than you could talk sense into the inquisitors or the taliban. Also the nonsense of it is partly the point, it means nothing so it can mean anything. They start with their conclusion (ie white people are cunts) and work backwards."

Re: Woke watch
Its not post truth. Its mostly nonsensical illogical blather. That said. At least people can reply with more blather. I’ve said this before but if you want a free and open forum with little or no rules you will get absolute retardery.

Re: Woke watch
Yes all that and stop being so heavily influenced by - and indeed encouraging - social media being used as a court of public opinion.

Re: Woke watch
"One of the main reasons social media has been allowed to flourish is that it encouraged/encourages people to freely give up personal information that they would never, ever consider giving directly to the government. All the government has to do is remind the social media platforms that they are operating under a revocable licence and said companies will look the other way whilst the government takes whatever it wants - after all the data no longer belongs to the individual, as they ceded that ownership in exchange for all that ""free"" stuff when they signed up."

Re: Woke watch
Mashed. agree entirely with your sentiments but it is the leaderships of great western powers that have ushered in and nurtured the post-truth era. Wokeism exists and flourishes because society is at the same time in thrall and in fear of social media. And it suits our leaders to perpetuate that sorry state of affairs. Why else would they preside so impotently over its emergence?

Two weeks she says? At least we now know to whom we send the bill. Very generous of her to cough up.

"Excellent 2 weeks, glad I know now. I’m pretty sure the country has been in mourning for George Floyd for about 3 years now."

Re: Woke watch
"Was gonna post this in the Trevor Sinclair thread but here's probably a better place... This tweet is currently going viral: ""Brits get two weeks off to mourn because the Queen died. When have Black folks gotten a chance to mourn? Anybody?"" https://mobile.twitter.com/JennMJacksonPhD/status/1567955346089734144 Now, you'd think someone with a PHD would have the intellectual rigour to fact-check themselves before posting that ""brits get 2 weeks off"" before posting it to her audience. You'd definitely think a Doctor would have the honesty to not make such a weird sweeping generalisation in the 2nd bit of her tweet (the global west's response to George Floyd for example) The truth is the truth doesn't matter. She knows its bollocks, but she's using it as an excuse to get attention and stir up a load of racism. Part of this is she knows she'll get thousands of responses telling her its bollocks, and then she'll turn this into her getting ""attacked"" by racists. Its so dishonest, all of this woke stuff is. That's why having good faith discussions just isn't gonna work to fight back against this stuff."

"AFLW not to have a minutes silence for the passing of the Queen before games now, as it may upset indigenous people, FFS. Then we had this.........Oh, she claims to ""indigenous"" more like complete cսnt in my book. https://wwos.nine.com.au/nrl/newcastle-knights-nrlw-player-caitlin-moran-queen-death-instagram-post-the-mole/57e0001d-abd7-4bee-bf7f-9771828e7c10 The Newcastle Knights are set to discipline one of their star female players after she posted a highly offensive and insensitive comment about the Queen's death on social media."

Re: Woke watch
"I posted this - obviously in incandescent error - on the wrong thread as a reply, so,: From the BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-62824913 ...""Many of those who watch the show will have two mums or two dads themselves...""... And, straight out of left field, many of those who watch the show will have one mum and one dad themselves. Maybe less than that. Do you think such a concept will ever become popular (in society or the media)?"

"Mike Ahh, yes! Tom-boys. Bless 'em. They like climbing trees, 'tag' and other 'boy-stuff'. I suspect the entire England women's football, rugby, cricket and hockey teams were tom-boys. In 10 years time we won't have any teams because they'll all have been encouraged to transition at 8 years old."

Re: Woke watch
", 7:35 Wed Sep 7 I think all kids go through a ""dressing up"" phase in their early childhood and are allowed to ""grow out of it"" - ""Allowed"" being preferred to ""Encouraged"" or even ""Forced"". The problems, to me, seem to arise from parents grabbing onto that phase and using it to define their child's future. This is then supported by thousands of faceless ""likes"" on social media which said parents decode somehow as implicit support for their (not their child's) choice; seems that the child can only ""choose"" something the parents believe in. Two of my three daughters (no links) went through ""tom-boy"" stages (even fewer links) when they were young, but through their own choices left that behind before they reached their teens."
