"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."

"In fact, it's sad that we've got to a point where young people have to be told to watch things through a different lense. I can't remember anyone from our era watching a film from the 1930's and being confused as to why life 50 years later was so different."

"""PS Grease is a forty year old film about the 60s, if you view it through young eyes it's a completely different era and the premise is dated."" That's the whole point ffs Young people should be told that life was different back then, to watch through a different lense, and not lied to about the past. And that they THEY don't have to be offended by it. It's sad that this even has to be pointed out to you, Vanilla son."

"twoleftfeet When I read things like that or the words of sympathy to the bombers family, being told you can't say that women have a vagina, I seriously wonder whether Labour ever want to get into power again."

"bigfrank 11:20 Tue Nov 16 Re: Woke watch You seem like a fun guy with a good sense of humour...same as twoleft. Just an idle observation you seem to both get worked up about things that are half a world and even more generations away from your own circumstances. cant be good for your health. PS Grease is a forty year old film about the 60s, if you view it through young eyes it's a completely different era and the premise is dated. PPS All musicals are shit, and school productions are even shitter, you can have that for free :-)"

"A Labour MP and 30 other MPs have raised a motion that Hillsborough and the subsequent enquiries should be taught in schools. I despair of children’s education. All they are taught is left wing propaganda, how racist Britain is and now how awful the police are. I’m glad my days will soon be numbered, I grew up in the best of times."

"Scientific research grants getting more wokey The influence of Left-wing identity politics on the media is beyond doubt. That’s not an opinion, but a quantifiable fact. By counting the number of times that relevant terminology like “whiteness”, “male privilege” and “cultural appropriation” is used in mainstream publications like the New York Times, one can chart an explosion of coverage over the last decade. However, this isn’t just happening in the media. A new report from the Center for the Study of Partnership and Ideology (CSPI) looks at an area one would hope would be free from ideological influence: scientific research. The report’s author, Leif Rasmussen, uses natural language processing to analyse the abstracts of successful grant proposals to the National Science Foundation — the main grant giving body for scientific research in the US. This is the key finding: As of 2020, across all fields 30.4% of successful grant abstracts contained at least one of the terms “equity,” “diversity,” “inclusion,” “gender,” “marginalize,” “underrepresented,” or “disparity.” This is up from 2.9% in 1990. This increase is seen in every field. - LEIF RASMUSSEN, CSPI That’s a big change, but is it necessarily a bad thing? Though the CSPI describes the overall trend as “politicisation”, one could argue that science can remain objective while being made more relevant to the lives of previously marginalised communities. Scientists should also address specific issues such as the underrepresentation of certain groups in medical trials, which can lead to an incomplete understanding of the effectiveness and side-effects of treatments. Woke science"

"Au contraire, I suggest that SJ was merely applying a gallant approach to Little Miss Ugly's Aris' - can't have been frequently complimented, so just tossed a little confidence lifter in there for the old trout as he went about his day Granted, 20 years after the event it may not of aged as well as intended, but hardly the work of the Boston Strangler"

"The first question to anyone talking about gender issues on a news program should be, ‘can you define ‘woman’ please?” How can you single out men and boys for re-education without assuming their gender?"

"I genuinely wish I was lying. They now believe that all boys and men need educating in sexual violence, sexual innuendo and offensive behaviour. I'm sorry but you can educate every male in the world but it will still happen. What they should be saying is not all men are rapists or predators but they don't."

4 female MPs on Sky last night telling the interviewer how evil all men are. The Tory MP for Romsey claims that in 2003 Stanley Johnson slapped her on the bottom and said “ the best seat in Romsey “ I personally don’t think that’s sexual assault but in these strange times he would probably get 10 years in prison. Jess Phillips also claiming she was sexually harassed which I find unbelievable.

"He wasn't travelling across state lines with a rifle, and he wasn't in possession of that rifle illegally. The rest of the Ben and Jerry tweet is probably as accurate as the only things that can or can't be substantiated. If a black lad had done that he would have the benefit of the right backing him because they appreciate an individual's ability to defend himself from attack, and the left's backing because they only see colour and choose their position accordingly. In fact, he wouldn't even have gone on trial."
