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."

"I have form for gobbing off about the trend of lefty wokism, that said, I see no issue with a disabled child receiving a similarly represented toy if it provides comfort I fail to see the need for a trans doll mind, and on that point, would object to the same disabled child being exposed to a cock in a frock in the changing room Ultimately, it's an issue of balance, if the child is happier then fair play, makes absolutely no commercial sense of course and is an exercise of look at us, right on corporate bollox Likewise if the manufacturer goes woke/broke, then I won't be shedding tears - read for that the wanker bankers in California and Disney's current travails"

"In what has been described as a ""Lia Thomas moment"" for cycling, Austin Killips, a 27-year-old transgender rider, has won first prize for women at the Tour of the Gila, the premier road race in New Mexico. It marked the most significant result yet for Killips, a trans-identifying biological male from Chicago, who also won a medal in women's cyclocross at the US National Championships and who is now tipped to challenge for a place at the Tour de France Femmes and at next summer's Paris Olympics."

Sure. Dolls are a great example of constantly making enjoyment or creating offence. I like the idea that people are offended by dolls.

"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."

"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."

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.

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.

"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."

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……
