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."

"Ah yes, the completely reasonable comparison of a barbie with a hearing aid to child porn."

"Never had you down as a man of medicine, Branded. Well maybe Anusol..."

[BRANDED]

"In medicine, the adjective spastic refers to an alteration in muscle tone affected by the medical condition spasticity, which is a well-known symptomatic phenomenon seen in patients with a wide range of central neurological disorders, including spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy (for example, spastic diplegia), stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS),[1] as well as conditions such as ""spastic colon."" The word is derived via Latin from the Greek spastikos (""drawing in"", ""tugging"" or ""shaking uncontrollably""). Colloquially, the noun spastic, originally a medical term, is now pejorative; though severity of this differs between the United States and the United Kingdom. Disabled people in the United Kingdom often consider ""spastic"" to be one of the most offensive terms related to disability."

There is a market for child porn. Doesnt mean its good.

[collyrob]

“Spastic dolls” Deary me.

"As some on here know, the destination of this current rush towards inclusivity will be judged by commercial and market forces. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/04/24/business/anheuser-execs-on-leave/index.html"

I think I’m deffo going to give spastic dolls to all my nieces and nephews and grand kids for birthdays just to see the absolute joy on their faces.

"arsegrapes 1:59 Wed Apr 26 Re: Woke watch I do wonder this, companies are in competition to out inclusive each other. Surely eventually we will see some withered (black) soul on a life support machine modelling a pair of trainers or advertising breakfast cereal. Or an elderly dementia patient covered in shit. Or just a brain in a jar."

Sydney_Iron 2:45 Wed Apr 26 Do you not think a young child who wears hearing aids would appreciate a Barbie Doll with a similar design?

[Fo the Communist]

What Collyrob says. Anyone who has an issue with the Down's doll is so far into the culture wars stuff as to be beyond both hope and humanity.

[Lee Trundle]

Happy LESBIAN Visibility Day everyone!

[collyrob]

Don’t see the problem with the Barrie’s. If it makes kids feel happy and included because they see a doll that looks like them. Surely that’s a good thing.

[Sydney_Iron]

"Then we have this! LOL Barbie shared via the social platform that upcoming additions to Barbie’s Fashion Doll line will focus on disability representation and diversity inclusion. This includes a Barbie with a behind-the-ear hearing aid and a Barbie with a prosthetic leg; plus, a Ken doll with vitiligo, a condition where the skin loses pigmentation and appears blotchy."

[Sydney_Iron]

Well they already have a Trans Barbie! Not sure what they will do next a non binary Barbie? Or perhaps the Ken doll will be a raving homosexual……

[arsegrapes]

"Martell launch Barbie with downs to make its doll range more inclusive. It's a good thing, just wondering where will it all end and who else being left outt will be offended"

"Yes it was, Surf. I would say 'wry'."

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"FO To be fair, it was was very mild and almost funny."

[Fo the Communist]

"Now now, Surf. And everyone was playing so nicely...."

I'm guessing colly has no difficulty distinguishing between green and certain shades of red. Such as orange.

"I found out when I went to an interview to be a trainee TV cameraman. Has already done a Physics/Electronics test and failed the colour blindness test on the last 2 of the book of cards I has to look at and see the number. I see red, blue and green just fine in almost every situation except that test."

"collyrob I believe what you have described as your condition is far and away the most common form of colour-blindness. My mate has it and has described it exactly as you did. There's a colour-blindness simulator here: https://pilestone.com/pages/color-blindness-simulator-1 Just as a matter of interest, which of the eight listed types of colour-blindness is yours?"
