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."

"This lineker thing is absolutely astonishing. The lack of self awareness on both sides is quite something. On the one hand you have a group of people who profess to despise cancel culture, celebrating someone being cancelled for their opinion. On the other you have a group of people who profess to despise tax dodging millionaires, supporting a tax dodging millionaire, and who would scream blue murder at anyone likening anything to nazi Germany as being anti-semitic, supporting someone likening something to nazi Germany. This planet needs an alien invasion, or a covid that actually works."

"'Fo the Communist 6:05 Fri Mar 10 ""I did say it yesterday."" I don't think you did, Surf.' Here's where I accept that 'leftie' is pejorative, just not as pejorative as 'extreme-right': SurfaceAgentX2Zero 2:43 Tue Mar 7 You're doing it again. You're trying to pretend that the label 'leftie' is as pejorative as the label 'far-right'. It clearly isn't, for the reasons I gave. Here's where you acknowledge that you understand exactly what I meant: 'Fo the Communist 3:03 Tue Mar 7 So we agree both are pejorative - we're down to a shootout for what's most offensive.' So I said it three days ago and have been repeating and clarifying ever since. Mendacious idiot."

STB And how is that something that we shouldn’t aspire to? Wouldn’t you rather asylum seekers didn’t put to sea in an inflatable?

"FO I did say it yesterday, you mendacious ass. I clearly said 'leftie' is a pejorative, albeit a piss-weak one, so calling a leftie lawyer a 'leftie lawyer' was not 'a bit odd', as you stated. You then went on to explain that calling a leftie lawyer a 'leftie lawyer' was deeply worrying because, um, er, Braverman and Sunak aka THE TORIES. You had similar worries about JRM accusing the UK's self-acknowledged socialist party of pursuing socialist policies. Pass the salts, Dorothy is fainting again."

"O1BB So, what he's saying is that Bruce's not exhibiting a dogmatic left-wing stance on one particular occasion (I'm not sure attitudes towards spousal abuse are particularly party political, but the Tories are the nasty party, so they must all be bashing up their wives) is proof of the BBC's anti-left stance. So, we have on the one side the BBC's entire news, drama, light entertainment and now sports output, and on the other the Chairman, Director General (both legitimate political appointments) and Fiona Bruce being polite. More big lie theory stuff."

"ED. I think Ray is saying that FB's words dilute Johnsons actions towards his wife. He would expect someone of the true left to be far more condemning than what Bruce was. And to be fair, he has a point."
