Current Affairs The WOKE

[wandyr79]

You have all been defending weirdo woke protests stopping rugby matches, flower shows, destroying art galleries, stopping traffic on roads, the kings coronation

Please point to where exactly anyone has defended the actions of these people. They may have agreed with the message but I don't remember anyone defending the actions. In fact, I was watching the snooker when the stop oil protesters and I was actually angry for a few minutes, because they could potentially be stopping a young kid from watching snooker live for the first time, etc. However, do I agree with the message that the environment needs to be considered then yes, I do.

However, now that the right is fighting back

Erm, 'fighting back'. I have nothing, maybe somebody else can take this point and eloquently educate them on what the work 'back' means. Maybe educate yourself on the history of the world?

They've taken your weirdo rules and are giving it back and now you can't take it?

So you are sort of admitting that you are a bigot here, it is not that subtle at all. You thrive on hate. The woke, the lefties that you speak of are talking about love, they are talking about equality, they are talking about protecting the environment so future generations can still enjoy the world. If these are the 'rules' that you hate, then I guess you have finally said it in plain terms, not much reading between the lines. You, sir are an extreme right wing bigoted person.

Please take not of the word 'talking', I am repeating myself here but I don't agree with all the actions taken, I agree with product ranges with bright colours on them and positive wording highlighting inclusiveness.

Why do lefties think they can do whatever they want and then think they can complain about others doing it?

That is literally what we are calling out here. People going into a store and harassing employees and customers with their own warped views of the world. Their hate for things they don't understand, their hate for things they don't like. As many of us have said a bunch of times, we don't necessarily like the actions of woke protesters but agree with the message. Stopping traffic is very wrong, stopping people that may well agree with your message and rubbing them up the wrong way is not the way to go about it.

Do you agree that it is OK to do what these people in Target have done, do you agree with the actions as well as the message?

You have all been defending weirdo woke protests stopping rugby matches, flower shows, destroying art galleries, stopping traffic on roads, the kings coronation - that's all fine for protesting if you're a leftie.

Where exactly has anyone done this?

As I've said all along, I don't like the woke because they're massive hypocrites and now you're all proving to be massive hypocrites. You have all been defending weirdo woke protests stopping rugby matches, flower shows, destroying art galleries, stopping traffic on roads, the kings coronation - that's all fine for protesting if you're a leftie. However, now that the right is fighting back it's "economic terrorism" or you're a massive tit. They've taken your weirdo rules and are giving it back and now you can't take it? Why do lefties think they can do whatever they want and then think they can complain about others doing it? How the left can be triggered by a boycott of a multibillion dollar corporation is even more incredible and ridiculous. Incredible levels of stupidity festoon the minds of woke warriors.

TRIGGERED

I thought we could make fun of weirdo's responses to things? Thanks for pointing out you're dull and woke though.

Oh, we are definitely doing that here, that's for sure, you triggered meatball.

University Of Colorado Declares Misgendering An "Act Of Violence"​

The University of Colorado Boulder (Boulder) is under fire this week for a statement on the “Pride Office” website stating that misgendering people can be considered an “act of violence.”

The guide on pronouns is reportedly the work of students associated with the office and states that “choosing to ignore or disrespect someone’s pronouns is not only an act of oppression but can also be considered an act of violence.”

It is a familiar position for many in higher education.

Opposing viewpoints are now routinely declared to be violence. That allows professors and students to rationalize their own act of violence or censorship.

The most vivid example was recently seen at Hunter College, which is part of the CUNY system. Professor Shellyne Rodríguez recently was fired after holding a machete to the neck of a New York Post reporter and threatened to “chop you up.” However, Hunter College decided not to fire her over a prior incident in which she trashed a pro-life table run by students.

Rodríguez spotted students with pro-life material at the college. She was captured on a videotape telling the students that “you’re not educating s–t […] This is f–king propaganda. What are you going to do, like, anti-trans next? This is bulls–t. This is violent. You’re triggering my students.” Even after a remarkably polite student said that he was “sorry,” Rodríguez would have nothing of it. After all, espousing pro-life views is now “violence.” Rodríguez rejected the apology and declared “No you’re not — because you can’t even have a f–king baby. So you don’t even know what that is. Get this s–t the f–k out of here.”

Just a week earlier, a professor stopped another “violent” display of pro-life views in New York. Professor Renee Overdyke of the State University of New York at Albany shut down a pro-life display and then resisted arrest.

At the University of California at Santa Barbara, feminist studies associate professor Mireille Miller Young criminally assaulted pro-life advocates on campus, and later pleaded guilty to the crime. She was defended by faculty and students, including many who said she was “triggered” by a pro-life display and that pro-life advocates were “terrorists” who did not deserve free speech.

It is that easy. You simply declare opposing views “violent” and then you can justify your own violence as a matter of self-defense.

I love how you copy and paste these articles so we can't see your weird, lonely sources.
