Woke watch
"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."

"You’re just going to turn out a generation of weird repressed stunted kids by projecting your own insecurities and repressions onto them. They are being taught to either fear or fetishise their own and other human bodies as somethjng weird, secret and forbidden. Both of which are pretty harmful viewpoints. The Scandies and the other nationalities with a similar attitude have it right, to just normalise the human body."

Rios. Indeed mate. That’s the danger of nebulous terms like ‘woke’ which serve as a byword to dismiss arguments without thought.

"What proportion of people consider the David either pornographic or obscene? And that being the case at what age would they permit their children to see the statue? How too does and anguished parent keep their child safe, in their eyes, outside of school?"

"Funny place, Florida. Twenty years ago a Belgium born waffle maker set up a working replica of the manneken pis outside his shop in an Orlando shopping mall. It caused a furore and the local council had it removed because of a so called lease violation."

Re: Woke watch
The irony here is that the fundamentalist Christian/Muslim loons have taken advantage of some anti-woke legislation to further their aims.

"Hammer and Pickle 11:17 Sat Mar 25 Since nobody has suggested that the Disney Corporation supports paedophilia, your anti-Catholic rant is difficult to understand. What the Disney Corporation IS guilty of is failing to quell the tsunami of pervs who queue up for employment in their parks in order to be near and have the opportunity to touch millions of children. To be fair to them, I'm not sure it's practically possible to ever overcome this problem. n.b. see also, to a lesser extent, Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, etc"

"Yeah it’s not woke. It’s extreme conservative (in the non political sense of the word) prudish, backwards nut job parents trying to label art as terrible pornography corrupting their precious children who would obviously never have seen or had any knowledge about human genitalia otherwise. The sort of people who would be dead against any form of wokeism. Showing a picture of a world famous and renowned piece of art that happens to be a statue that has no clothes on? In a lesson about renaissance art? What next? It’s just extremely sad and depressing that some people are like that. Crazy story."

"The question, Joe (in terms of its relation to the white privilege question) is whether the circumstances you describe were the result of your skin colour. Not referring to your circumstances specifically, mate, but you can still be poor and be seen as having white privilege. I suspect this issue is much the same as the problem we have describing ‘woke’ - we are all probably working to different definitions."
Re: Woke watch
Don’t consider myself privileged. Got stopped and searched a couple of times in the 80’s Had the odd nicking (usually for being pissed up) Work full time in what most would consider a crap job. Just where is this white privilege I keep hearing about?

Re: Woke watch
It’s ridiculous of course but isn’t Rios post subject the opposite of woke? And someone enlighten me. Isn’t ‘white privilege’ simply the acknowledgment that whatever problems you may have aren't because of your whiteness?
