Yea. And a step in the right direction that none-judgemental attitude.

Grandsiozzie: I personally think Alyssa Milano did a pretty good job in Commando playing Arnolds daughter so let's not forget her great acting skills here ok.
Yeah, another entertainer that wants to save the world from the bad people.I'd be impressed if she was a doctor or had another useful profession. Woke, overpaid and useless Hollywood workers.
Ignorant and proud.
I have no respect for people like her.

20 years later the director of the movie 'Love actually", slams his own film for lacking diversity and says the predominance of white actors makes him feel uncomfortable and stupid...
Yes, he is right, he is stupid.
I wonder what the director of the 1985 film "The colour Purple" will say...

You can always spot a good blog. The Leningrad trolls join in with screaming epitaphs and self pitying eulogies About their country and the Republican party.

Stan_147: Being in a constant state of offended, is a sign that the ‘programming’ is working.
If we had a survey of ths thread, I wonder who would be offended the most frequently.------ This thread is Archived ------

All the same it's not the same. It doesn't matter if there isn't room here for someone who stands against everything you believe in, but it does that matter if the state and academia have no room for people who stand against everything you believe in. It's not the same to hold Mr Nobody Love to the same standard as those in power. The real problem is that university and the professions contain such vehement anti-intellectualism.------ This thread is Archived ------

Go on to reddit and you'll find people offended in like they are here, but for the opposite reasons pretty much. And that's not the problem neither however much we might like it if they were different. The state and the professions have so much more power than we do and therefore have so much more responsibility than we do in our free time, and more than this we're supposed to get an equal say in these things as voters and as taxpayers. Our free time is not the same as people we pay to do the job properly (apparently), they have a professional and public obligation to not talk over the lions share of the general public.------ This thread is Archived ------
I'd say it is pretty quiet here.
Some probably dream of the olden days when one can block posters from their threads.
There was a question and seems nobody gets the trophy for answering in a way to please everyone.
And thank God for that.
There are enough pleasers already.

Only Jac is trying to create some mystery around a simple question I asked her.
She probably can not find the politically correct answer to it.
So, Jac, I will have a wild guess and say Polish Jew.
But I can easily go for Irish traveller too.
There's no much difference if one looks closely.

And what I think woke reveals is the inadequacy of our educated classes. Sending remedials to university didn't raise their game, it lowered all our standards of what we consider. We now have anti-intellectual and unprofessional "educated" classes as a result of sending remedials to university.

Woke makes a lot more sense when you remember that university, 80% of the time, is a diploma mill designed to instill debt and creed. It is there to instill debt and neopuritan creed in the young, and to provide work for the older generation. That is the purpose.

And I don't think the modern state of education today fell from the sky, I believe there's a reason for it and that reason is complacency. The educated classes go through the motions of people who used to understand. Many of our professions are becoming an illusion where the system decides what is to be done and the man is more like a technician. A monkey could do it and it's a circle of monkeys imitating the old circle of monkeys. It doesn't know why the old monkeys behaved this way, or whether that reason still applies, but going through those motions gives a nice image of people who know what what they're doing.

Divercity, equity and inclusion...
Promoted by people who don't have enough in their heads to grasp the meaning of those words and why they aren't what woke wants them to be.
No, we are not all equal, we don't need to mix and match and we don't need to pull the loser in the game cause it isn't a video game and life isn't fair.
Knowing much and understanding less is woke, Google tells you how stupid you are.
Superficial and unable to distinguish right from good.

There are 67.33 million people on the edge of their chairs here.
