Current Affairs The WOKE

[Encoder]

i swear bits have been cut out films for TV for years, to make it be able to show at certain times. Not just kids films too, even films so they can be shown at 2pm on a Sunday, or something

I am always shocked when I watch the simpsons Beer Baron episode when they show a chippie getting bombed on saint patricks day, because that was always cut out of the airing in the UK which I watched as a kid!

Who are they??? What do they do???

They're basically like a weird gay version of 70s punks. Soon to be forgotten.

How are they weird?

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

So this confirms what I was saying earlier, it is not the woke (god I hate that phrase) cancelling stuff, it is business' looking after their interests. Meanwhile the grumpy old men and women are losing it at the woke.

And they all cheer when it happens...

This, from Saturdays Torygraph; In brief, the Tory government isn’t Tory. “Real Power” is held by “Progressives” who “dominate all forms of culture “, “control education” and “decide which words we can and cannot use”...... “therefore, they are the ones in charge”.
No mention there of the cost of living, energy costs, nor the myriad benefits accruing from Brexit.
It’s them pesky Progressives.

Happens all the time. Lots of it depends on the networks standards as well though.

One example. I’ve been rewatching all of scrubs and listening to the podcast along side. And they talk about it loads because when it got taken over by a Disney run network. They were restricted on any nudity (such as The Todd wearing a banana hammock for those who know the show) even though it still aired at the same time etc. And then now the whole series is on Disney+, there are loads of scenes (from pre Disney ownership) that have been edited out to meet Disney standards.

truss was right all along, she was undermined by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, her perfectly coherent and costed budget had no chance because the progressive satirists put off the international financial experts. Damn you cartoons and comedy in general!

Is this all they have? Gray man Starmer is so bland they can't pin communism or anti-semitism on him and the saville card got played and criticised months ago, clutching at straws and getting nervous now the end is in sight. Giving up politics and not running at the next GE soon...

Wot, both of them……

Apparently!

Progressives or Centrists. Whose going to win?

Only one way to find out .... FIGHT!

 

[Ferguson1878]

The streaming also has different music because they don't have the rights for the orginial soundtracks

And you just know the demented old fools who read that rag will lap it up.

They need;
1. An enemy, and
2. A scapegoat to extricate themselves of any responsibility.
