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."

"I don't think it is 99% of teachers at all. However, most teachers are not brave enough to say anything against it. There are probably 20% of teachers who are ideologically signed up to it but the rest of them just go along with it. In my current job (not teaching) it's the same - was at a dinner where someone said something that was bonkers but as if it was perfectly rational. Everyone else looked at each other and said nothing. Me included. So maybe I'm the hypocrite."

Not all teachers

"Fifth I disagree. Gallagher is correct. It's middle-aged women in positions of power; Parliament, councils, senior positions in HR departments, newspapers, tv etc, who have the means to create the problems young men face. You are correct insofar as young people have been brainwashed, at 'uni' or earlier, and lack the resolve to stand up to this nonsense. In the case of young women, the brainwashing and sheer self-interest reinforce each other."

"Noel said whilst criticising ""woke"" ""Angry, white middle-aged women..."" So weirdly, Noel is basically like all the woke people online, who are generally young people (often men including men who think they're women), who are blaming white middle aged women for everything. It's not middle aged white women that are the problem. It's predominantly younger people - men and women - who are telling older white people that they're all racists and transphobes etc."

"Piece here from Noel Gallager, who I think is always worth a listen.. Noel Gallagher says he fears his teenage sons are not able to enjoy life like he and brother Liam did because the world is “too woke”. The 55-year-old former Oasis star has two sons Donovan, 16, and Sonny, 13, with wife Sara MacDonald, 51, who he says he broke up with due to a mid-life crisis. In a rant against “woke” Britain, he said his boys were unable to be as carefree as he and Liam, now 50, were growing up. He said: “We were wild. We didn’t give a f***. “They’re not as carefree. They’re shackled by the internet and wokeism and by living in a country where f*** all works.” Noel, who also has a daughter Anais, 23, with ex-wife Meg Mathews, accused women of, little by little, eroding young men’s confidence. He said: “I’ve got two young sons and I feel anxious for young guys. “They don’t really know how to behave with all this woke s**t that’s now foisted upon everybody. “Angry, white middle-aged women telling young guys how to behave and all this b******s. I look at my sons and I have to put them in a headlock sometimes and say, ‘Don’t worry about these people, just be who you are’.”"

"BRANDED 10:30 Thu May 18 This is where nobody will talk about the elephant in the room (excuse the pun). Fat people say 'fat' is a condition. I'm just fat. No, your not. Your fat because you drink too much alcohol and fizzy drinks, because you eat too much fatty and sugary food, because you don't exercise. You'd become a lazy slob who doesn't care about yourself. That's fine, be what you want, but don't blame a condition or anybody else. It's your problem so deal with it."

"goose 9:11 Sun May 21 I'm afraid this is where we've got to. Can you imagine a show celebrating white heritage being shown that requests black people do not attend? Jesus christ, can you imagine? I mean, I suppose if I wanted to be dramatic I could argue that this is no different to America in the 50's and 60's with premises banning blacks. And Germany in the 30's with oremises banning Jews."

Nurse Ratched 11:42 Sun May 21 Of all the devices used to shut down opposition to race baiters CRT. cultural appropriation is the most ludicrous. Everybody copies other cultures and if they didn't the world would be a poorer place. I saw a black woman spouting about cultural appropriation on youtube with straightened hair. What is that called?

Vinicius Jr gets racially abused by Valencia’s fans who wonder what all his fuss is about because they reckon they’re simply enjoying football fan banter.

Pretty cruel of Bob Wilson's parents to give his middle name as Primrose. He's a Gooner though so fuck him ;-)

"Double-barrelled Whitey: ""I have listened to your concerns and have accepted your just criticisms as a learning experience. This year - behold my truly authentic Persian Paradise Garden"" Non-whitey Race-Baiters: ""CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!"""

[BRANDED]

"Classic English gardens made by “double-barrel-named” designers are putting non-white communities off the Chelsea Flower Show, the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) ambassador for diversity and inclusion has said. Manoj Malde highlighted the example of the “paradise garden” by celebrated landscape designer Tom Stuart-Smith at RHS Bridgewater in Salford. “Beautiful as it is and Tom is a great designer, I felt that was an opportunity missed, because Tom doesn’t have a connection with that heritage,” he said. “There’s a lot of detail of what is deemed to be a true paradise garden, a mughal garden, that doesn’t exist in it. “Just because you put a central water feature with a rill going through it, doesn’t turn it into a paradise garden.” He added: “Salford has got a huge community from different backgrounds – such as Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi – and that opportunity, I personally think, was missed.” Walled paradise gardens trace their origins to the Persian Achaemenid Empire in the 6th century BC. Often considered the first gardens, they spread throughout the Islamic world in subsequent decades."

"goose. I said on here ages ago that this is a supply and demand issue. The demand from the race baiters simply cant be met, there isnt enough racism available to satisfy their insatiable needs. Needy desperate people who really are quite pitiful."

Bob Primrose Wilson (they/them) would probably be eligible to host Football Focus again now

[twoleftfeet]

I haven’t watched football focus since Bob Wilson did it. It’s basically a show for women and black people.

[Fifth Column]

"AOI Is that because they don't have rights to the CL whilst they do have the rights to WSL, which presumably cost about £3.50 and a packet of crisps"

[Any Old Iron]

Watched Football Focus (sponsored by Black Lives Matter) for the first time in years. There was not a word about WHU getting to a European final. Instead they had 'highlights' of our 'girls' getting hammered by Chelsea. I despair.

"Adidas has come under fire for advertising a female-style swimming costume using a model with a penis. The swimsuit, launched as part of the brand’s Pride Rich Mnisi collection in collaboration with South African designer Rich Mnisi, is on sale in the UK for £50. The model, who appears to be male, is 6ft 2in. The move has prompted criticism from campaigners for women’s equality in sport, who argue that the use of a biologically male model for a women’s swimsuit creates unrealistic body expectations for women. Sharron Davies, former Olympian swimmer and the author of Unfair Play, a book critiquing the inclusion of biological males in women’s sport, wrote on social media: “Yet again a male gets paid to advertise a product that’s vastly aimed at women who are physically a different shape. “Adidas if you want to design a swimsuit for trans women, right on. They have different needs. But stop gaslighting women?” She added that women were “having all their descriptive words and rights eroded”."

"Obese patients cost the NHS twice as much as those of healthy weight, landmark research has found – with an average of £1,375 a year spent on each of the heaviest patients. The “first of its kind” study, presented at the European Congress on Obesity in Dublin, lays bare the costs of obesity to the taxpayer, as those who are not overweight only cost the health service an annual average of £638. The findings suggest that the NHS could save nearly £14 billion a year if everyone was a healthy weight. Experts warned that the full costs of Britain’s weight problem are still greater, with long-term sickness keeping millions out of work and crippling the economy. It comes amid pressure on the Government to tax junk foods, with the Institute for Government warning that “squeamishness” about such measures could mean voters face higher taxes. Two in three adults in the UK are overweight or obese."

"Slovakian MPs are under mounting international pressure to reject a bill that would see the country follow Hungary in effectively putting a stop to decades of legal gender recognition for transgender people. A vote is expected in parliament within days on a law proposed by conservative and far-right parties that would require someone to have the “correct” set of chromosomes to match their legal gender. Human rights NGO Amnesty International has joined the Council of Europe in appealing to Slovakian MPs not to back the bill, which they say is in conflict with the country’s obligations under the European convention on human rights. The change in Slovakia would follow a vote three years ago in Hungary that endorsed a new law defining gender as based on chromosomes at birth, meaning previous provisions whereby trans people could alter their gender and name on official documents is no longer available."
