Current Affairs What is Woke ?

[twoblue]

This is essentially me. I'm all for equal rights and living how you feel comfortably, but don't rewrite biology to suit an agenda - and don't tell me what words to use.

I actually think the biggest provocation against this debate was reformer trying to create the debate.
I’m no against men or women changing sex. I don’t agree that they get to then attend opposite prisons etc.
Also not sure that teenage years is the best time to make the decisions.
Equally I think that the amount that these matter effect my daily life mean that I would never lose sleep if people disagreed with me.

Shocked to find that this thread topic degenerated so quickly.

Men and women can't change sex. Men and women can change 'gender', which is the made up word coined by the paedophile, John Money. Physically, surgically, medically and theoretically impossible for a mammal to change sex - we're not snails or clownfish.

Sex is broken down into primary and secondary characteristics, primary being static and secondary being amendable with artifical cross-sex hormones. Primary sex characteristics are what make someone male or female, secondary characteristics are what make them appear so - such as facial hair or breasts.

Teenagers probably should be allowed to make decisions about anything tbf.

I got accused of being woke yesterday for calling out @tirion and others for job shaming, so maybe he can shed some light when he’s back from his ban.

He got banned?

He got banned?

I just saw an off topic flag on one of his post so assumed he had a temp.

I thought he'd been canned a long time ago!

Yeah same, sadly not. Maybe he was logged in as another account for 6 months or something.

Also, this is borderline a topic for the current affairs forum rather than the Ale House.

The main issue on here / wider social media is that people cannot differentiate between being Liberal minded & being a woke.

One is an open minded, intellectually driven & compassionate individual. The other is a radical element of the political left who will use any means necessary to force their agenda/opinions on the masses.

The humorous thing I have found during my observations of the "woke" is that they are often seedy individuals who lack any kind of morality / spirituality. Yet they wish to preach to the rest of us on how to be nice !

I'd be interested to read this. Has it been published in any academic journals?
