"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."

"bruunoooo You are correct that people labelling themselves ""feminists"" were endorsing this. However, those 'liberal feminists' are still doing so alongside huge numbers of millennial men, However, the women who are leading in campaigning against all the TransWomenAreWomen insanity are the radical feminists - the ones who have ALWAYS been against this nonsense. They're labelled ""TERFs"" - Trans Excluding Radical Feminists - as a term of abuse. It is what might be called ""liberal feminists"" - the wishy washy ones who go on about ""being kind"" all the time whilst trying to get Radical Feminists sacked from their jobs, that remain the advocates for the lunacy. So, the people who are loudly campaigning against this have always been campaigning against it."

"Fifth column maybe the TRA are mainly men but all of this madness was started by feminists with their insistence that men and women are the same and any differences are a social construct. Logically if you take this view then a person should be able to choose their sex/gender. All this stuff started with Bruce Jenner - remember then it was purely women praising him, saying how brave he is, changing their FB profiles etc to show solidarity. I remember it clearly it was all women driving this show of love and support. Ten years later now they’ve realised the logical outcome of this they’re all kicking off about trans people. It’s hilarious watching them being hoisted by the own petard. My sister (a headteacher) used to lecture me on how trans people are women, now she’s full on militant anti-trans. It’s laughable but pisses me off that men are getting the blame for this madness created by women A good example of why copying American cultural movements are regressive but it won’t stop the idiots on Twitter.."

"Surface I was talking about ""woke"" in general - wasn't deflecting anything. And yes of course the narrative of ""how you dress defines your gender"" is negative for young men. Telling a boy who doesn't like football that they might actually be a women is pretty fucked up and is certainly negative."

Unchallenged deflection is another problem. Watch how quickly these women swerve to 'toxic masculinity' when they are on shaky ground in the equal rights argument.

Surface If you look at all the Trans Rights Activists on Twitter they are almost all male. And all blaming middle aged women for everything.

"Gallagher is also correct in this assessment that's being skipped over yet is of arguably far greater significance. ""They’re shackled by the internet...by living in a country where f*** all works.”"

"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."

"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?
