Wokeism of the day *Revised Mod Note in OP and threadbanned users*

But anyway, imagine being so captured, so *enslaved*, that you'd take more notice of the pronouns being used to denote correctly an extremely violent person's sex, than the... person in question's violence. Including rapists.

There are also those who don't really think this way at all and just use it to get a rise on social media (if someone is particularly "Do as I say, not as I do", this is a good hint) but the genuine ones... god help them. They're being had.

That woman from The Young Turks who used to do the faux "I don't get it" when JK Rowling rightly objected to the insistence that sex offenders who have just decided they're women be recorded as women (screwing up the statistics on top of everything else) is now finally "getting" it. But she'll be made to pay.

considering there are 375 pages of mostly carefully considered and properly articulated wokeisims…. That’s a pretty unusual steer on things but anyway. :)

I don’t think name calling has entered the fray too often personally, probably if on occasion it’s been more frustration with the whole ignorance that can prevail from the woke corners….leaving your ‘simple minded’ tag to one side for a moment, ahem 😉 ….. referring to someone simply as or a situation as woke isn’t name calling, no more then it might be if you called them leftist, right leaning, socialist etc… there are people who simply admit to being woke, embrace the whole ideology, There are websites and social media set up advocating wokeness.. Media ‘personalities’ like Fergus Finlay are to repeatedly heard to pronounce that they are ‘woke and proud’…

so it’s hardly as simple as name calling when people are deliberately and delightfully self identifying as ‘being’ woke..and called woke. 😳

wokeness is political and is social…. Much like fascism in some aspects…fully embracing and joyful in its attempts to actively subordinate opinions and interests that oppose its ideology or just simply outside its ideology. Woke media and organisations sell merch… tshirts, car stickers, hats, welcome mats…

“woke and proud”

“get woke stay woke” ( there are conferences and educational seminars promoting this )

“woke as fück”

So I don’t think you can call it name calling. Yes it’s a label… and wokeisims are examples of being woke and what woke people like, think, advocate and do.

woke people don’t really mind being called woke, but they very much dislike being called out on their wokeness, and shown up when it’s brought to them how ridiculous it all is…and it’s numerous negative connotations.

then wokeisim is in most dictionaries…it will mean different things to most people…I’ve read varying definitions

One outlier ….. aware of social problems to do with race and equality …(which is weird because truly woke people are not usually for fairness and equality, or anything decided remotely democratically ) woke doesn’t like democratically minded people or discourse.

what woke means to most of us…. “ a social attitude that harbours treasonous ideals whereby democracy and the wellbeing and welfare of said democracies and citizens are compromised or advocated to be compromised and undermined by virtue of actions largely undemocratic, unsafe, unfair and benefiting of others including certain minorities.

Oh FFS. Zero privacy for men: women most affected.

It looks like they still have women's/men's bathrooms, which is something. This is just a third jacks which will probably turn into a second men's bathroom.

This sort of stuff comes about from diversity and inclusion committees which aren't diverse or inclusive, ironically. They end up going down a rabbit-hole of their own silly ideas to justify their existence, and the because the sort of people on them (in my experience) aren't at all diverse, they lack a balanced view.

Effectively, the nonsense put out by D&I committees (much of which we've seen in this thread) is one of the best arguments for diversity of views, which is something they tend to lack completely.

Maybe they’ll close down on of the bars in the airport and build a more inclusive / woke jacks in its place.

This happened over here too with Trinity and UCD. Unisex toilets were shuttered, gender neutral toilets went in - they didnt rename them, they actually built new ones.

UCD is proudly feminist, and quietly misandrist.

This is by design as can be read here:

https://www.ucd.ie/equality/t4media/UCD_GENDER%20EQUALITY%20ACTION%20PLAN.pdf

UCD takes its guidlelines from the misandrist ATHENA SWAN organsiation.

Note if you type UCD female candidates preferred into google, the first two links contradict themselves. The first states that UCD hires on merit, while the second states the targets to be hired in each department.

Also note this target isnt 50/50 since UCD staff & faculty are already majority female.

Basically if a dept is already majority female (which most are), a promotion within it will also be female. Equal opportunity eh?

Its taken me awhile to understand that feminism is in fact a female supremacy movement, but I no longer have any doubts when presented with overwhelming evidence. Daily at this stage.

It’s been a long running theme whereby many groups of people who want or espouse that they want ‘equality’… in fact want instead to be superior….

Yes, I think the post you were replying to seemed quite disingenuous. I noticed the "simple-minded" thing too. But that insult is ok.

I’ve been on the planet for close on 70 years, yet the notion that I might meet a “her’’ with testicles, or a ‘’him’’ with a vagina, obviously means I have a very secluded existence. Please feel free to call me (Enter your particular hate filled gender neutral pronoun here)

News anchor dropped for quoting Snoop Dogg

http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/barbie-bassett-snoop-dogg-nbc-b2308231.html

During her last episode, as per Deadline, Bassett and her team were discussing Snoop Dogg’s line of wines.

“Fo shizzle, my nizzle,” said Bassett when the idea of a collaboration between the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper and a newsroom journalist was raised.

“Nizzle” is slang for the N-word.

She has been absent from her station since the incident, on March 8th

"It comes as a new study, published on Wednesday, revealed that nearly a quarter (23 per cent) of Gen Z now identify using a non-gendered pronoun such as 'they/them"

Children are easily influenced, and from some of the footage I've seen in US schools and in TikTok I occasionally get sent clips, they are absolutely being programmed.

A common theme in reddit.com/r/detrans is that they regret what they did, but say they were pressured/pushed into doing it, and not by peers but by figures of authority in schools or mental health pros & doctors.

Local anecdote, I was eating a mcdonalds during lunch time about a year ago, when a group of young secondary schoolers came in and had a conversation about what gender they were going to identify as. They weren't joking either.

ironic too as one of their arguments is that it evokes Minstrels yet the woke Left are ok promoting drag which is a woman version of Minstrels
