Woke watch

Post 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."

"Surf - the terms like 'leftist' and lefty' are used as a pejorative terms term today in a way they never was a decade or so ago. Same with 'socialist'. That pillock JRM was doing so in the Commons only yesterday. A particularly spiteful performance from him. I say that, in the same spirit as Sydney's comment, in full agreement that terms like 'far right' are also bandied around with equal lack of thought. Whether it's pigeonholing 'far right' or 'lefties' it's symptomatic of the wider problem - the wilful degeneration of proper political discourse in this country."

"Sydney_Iron 11:10 Fri Mar 3 'To be fair though, the term “far left” gets banded about all too quickly as well!' That's not really true, mate. For instance, Antifa can go out on the streets tooled-up and wearing balaclavas and still not get called that. The asymmetry is indicative of the whole problem."

Silly question really as the basic requirement for cervical screening will be having a cervix. What will inevitably happen though in the figure is some hairy bloke will turn up and demand a screening. This individual having transitioned to blokedom sometime in the past.

"The NHS must reinstate the word “woman” in its cancer and pregnancy webpages, more than a thousand staff in the health service have demanded. At least 19 women’s health pages on the NHS website fail to mention women either at all or in addition to non-gendered language, including for guidance on ovarian and uterus cancer, menopause, childbirth and heavy periods. Some 1,200 NHS doctors, nurses and health practitioners have now written to NHS bosses and all four chief nursing officers to condemn the “discriminatory” move “which harms women”. The Clinical Advisory Network on Sex and Gender, a group of NHS staff, organised the letter after noticing that many NHS.UK webpages had begun shifting to gender-neutral language since 2021, using terms such as “you”, “people” or “person”. For example, the NHS official guidance for ovarian cancer previously began by saying it “is one of the most common types of cancer in women”, now this sentence has vanished along with any mention of women."

Usually you would laugh about this nonsense but people take this shit seriously. Is it possible to not have to recruit any ‘gen z’ into the workplace? I bet productivity would go through the roof.

"British countryside is racist! FMOB https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8843061/BBC-Countryfile-star-Ellie-Harrison-says-British-countryside-racist.html The British countryside is racist and white people need to acknowledge they have benefited from the past, according to Countryfile presenter Ellie Harrison. The BBC broadcaster said that while rural areas may not be more bigoted than other parts of the country, there is 'work to do' to stamp out prejudice."

"bigfrank 12:14 Wed Mar 1 If England is to be saved, the right, and Christians, and everyone tbh, should learn from the Muslims. They club together and agitate for pro-Muslim causes and don't give a fuck what anyone says. Schools cave in cos they know what will happen if they don't. Can't blame the Muslims, its their beliefs and they stick to them. All mainstream conservatives do is ignore or attack anyone from their side who tries to do anything about the stuff they moan about. Its no coincidence all this woke stuff, BLM, mass immigration and drag perverts stripping in front of kids has exploded under a Tory government."

"So, will a ""Gen Z"" worker refuse to use a computer unless his/her/they employer can prove (PROVE) it's powered 100% by green electricity? Firstly I'd sooner have workers concentrating on the job for which I employed them - certainly on the time I'm paying them for and secondly, if the wages are high enough, they'll fuck off all ""societal concerns"" in favour of a personal wedge, just like every other realistic cսnt on the planet."

"British businesses must embrace ""progressive"" values such as net zero and adopt ""active diversity and inclusion strategies"" if they want to attract Gen Z workers, according to the head of the UK's biggest business group. Tony Danker, director general of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), will tell a Future of Work conference that young people are increasingly making career choices based on a company's social values, insisting: “It’s no longer just they work for us – we have to work for them.” In a speech in London, Mr Danker will urge business to be ""progressive - with a small p"", adding that: “Without strong societal values, a central sense of purpose, a commitment to better employee lives, and active diversity and inclusion strategies, you will lose the talent war.” He will say that ""younger workers especially are looking for value and purpose in their jobs"" and are willing to ""challenge"" senior leaders on ""net zero credentials, commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, or public advocacy"". Mr Danker will say: ""More than ever, it is a competition about values: the values a company holds and the values of work it promotes. Much of this is driven by the different generations now in the workforce, and their expectations of how business should contribute to their own lives and wider society."""

"stewie griffin 9:09 Tue Feb 28 Totally agree, total silence and zero accountability. I also noticed that Idris Elba is getting grief for coming out and saying he just considers himself an actor, not a black actor. The angry little man John Boyega seems one of those most upset. Re the sanitising of books and film. I have no issue with placing a warning, no matter how stupid, on things, as it covers yourself from the idiots who will be offended, as you can say well we did warn you and you still chose to read or watch it. But why place a warning on something you have sanitised and dumbed down?! If a roller coaster might have a one in a billion chance of giving you a heart attack fair enough put a warning on it. But you wouldn't put a warning, plus straighten out and level the coaster and limit it to 20mph at the same time would you?!"

"Content warnings are often given over fears that audiences might be disturbed by upsetting language or violence on stage, but it is a culinary scene in an upcoming play that now has producers walking on eggshells. The Young Vic has warned theatregoers that a new production “involves the handling of cooked egg”."
