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 had a heated discussion with someone about women’s sport and I qas saying it was generally substandard and they were somewhat offended. They gave a good defence for numerous reasons. I suggested they were all decent reasons but why the fuck did he not go to watch them instead of watching men’s sports? Stumped

Diversity is our strength! Just not in Darlington.....

[Darlo Debs]

Goose I.was responding to.whay greenstreet said about diversity. Just pointing out that we have.divesrity and talent from.all backgrounds in the game. Not quite sure how that is virtue signalling or contentious really. Nor is it particularly contentious to.state that fans in grounds should continue to be able to feel.safe at grounds. Only an inadequate cyber troll like surf would take issue with it. Anyway he can get back.in his box now. I'm away..

"Bit of an over reaction there Debs, I was just asking which way round you meant it."

[Darlo Debs]

I hate to.be the one to.point this out to.you buy we aren't the only fan base in the Premier league

Darlo Debs 10:37 Tue Aug 8 'You never heard the phrase always room.for improvement. I'd not get any grief I am.white. not sure if there are other groups that still get the odd bit of grief. Does no harm to keep.us alert and not complacent.' This may be one of the most patronising pieces of virtue-signalling I've ever seen. Who the fuck are you to deem a section of the West Ham crowd liable to revert back to the 80s?

[Darlo Debs]

Learn to.read goose I never said they were..

[goose]

Or are you saying the opposite and that’s it’s not reflected in the stands?

[Darlo Debs]

Course I have been to.a game within that time you plonker. You never heard the phrase always room.for improvement. I'd not get any grief I am.white. not sure if there are other groups that still get the odd bit of grief. Does no harm to keep.us alert and not complacent.

Debs what leads you to believe that ethnic minorities are under represented in coaching?

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"Darlo Debs 10:04 Tue Aug 8 'Don't we want to have fans from other backgrounds or maybe other countries feeling safe coming to.our grounds?' Clearly you haven't been to a football match for 30 years. Literally nobody of any race, sex or sexuality, apart from away fans, has any reason to feel unsafe in any ground in the country. Virtue-signalling moron."

[Darlo Debs]

..and aren't they from.diverse backgrounds greenstreet? Look at the make up of the teams and the backgrounds of the managers. Many not being of Brithsh origin. It's also about the diversity of the fans isn't it? Don't we want to have fans from other backgrounds or maybe other countries feeling safe coming to.our grounds?

“Diversity is central to the success of the game…” Quite a statement. And I thought football was all about people with the best abilities in various fields and levels coming together.

"Excellent! Premier League captains have confirmed that players will once again take the knee before specific matches during the 2023/24 season, to demonstrate their ongoing commitment to fight racism and all forms of discrimination. Players will take the knee at the Premier League’s opening and final match rounds of the season, as well as dedicated No Room For Racism fixtures in October and April, and Boxing Day fixtures. The Premier League supports the players’ decision and will continue to work alongside clubs this season to elevate anti-discrimination messaging as part of the League’s No Room For Racism Action Plan. The Premier League captains said: “We are unified in our belief that any form of discrimination has no place within football, or wider society, and are committed to using our platform to help celebrate diversity and show our support in the fight against racism. “Therefore, we will continue to show solidarity by taking the knee at significant moments during the forthcoming season. Diversity is central to the success of the game and we feel strongly that people should respect others, regardless of their ethnicity or background.”"

You won't be fucking laughing when our team of over 30s takes the knee and then can't get back up.

[Yorkammer]

I did laugh when I read that statement from the Premier League. Couldn't care less whether players take the knee or not. But the predictable response from the usual suspects makes it all worth while.

"I'd rather punch all the PL captains in the face. Their leader last year was Henderson and he has buggered off to Saudi. "" do as I say not as I do """

"only1billybonds 2:20 Sun Aug 6 That's exactly it: Someone, that I don't know, has said something and (possibly) someone else - who I equally don't know - has said that what the first person said is true. But, ""People trust the BBC!"" I hear you scream! Well, who, exactly, are these people? Let's have a look, shall we? 1. Old people, 2. Uneducated people, 3. Foreign people, 4. Insecure people, 5. Ignorant people, 6. Simple people, 7. People who can't (or won't) think for themselves, 8. Lazy people, 9. People who hate change. So, yeah, ""people"" do trust the BBC. Nail on the word ""Verify"", a basic human need developed as a survival tactic early in OUR evolution and you've got a winner. In which of those groups are you?"

[ironsofcanada]

Everyone must determine their own camp level. Follow your heart.

[Nurse Ratched]

"""The festival needs better tents?"" Are you saying the Pride attendees need to get better at camping?"

[ironsofcanada]

"100/110 km/h gusts happen a few times a year around here. That said it has actually been a calm, hot dry summer and the last time gusts were over 60 for a week or so straight was March. The festival needs better tents?"

[only1billybonds]

And yet these clowns (BBC) are asking us to trust this new 'verify' set up as the absolute go to fir fact checking accuarcy. Arrogant cunts.
