A Woke Society? Mod Warning In Post #435

Facthunt · 21-10-2023 11:35pm #1

Is Ireland becoming a Woke Society? Are people too scared to say anything as it may offend…..

Are we too tolerant and easily lead?

Pherekydes · 21-10-2023 11:45pm

Hopefully, yes.

I can't abide racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia or other forms of social injustice.

Which are you in favour of, OP?

I think a lot of people don't yet realise what's going on and the level it is at. Having to say baby carrier instead of woman is mad.

There was a time the poor insane individuals were sadly incarcerated, now the ordinary average reasonable person sadly stands to be incarcerated. Moderation has been bypassed.

It's not baby carrier.

It's birthing people.

Baby carrier is cool, I have another option I tend to use just as often, which is; "babe".

I’ve a uterus, I’m beyond birth, in post menopause, what am I called? Honest question.

It also poses a new question....How do we refer to someone physically carrying a baby when said person is not a baby carrier.

Seamus4life · 22-10-2023 12:12am

When i was young only women had babies, now men can have babies and lesbians can have a penis. Science truly is amazing!!!

I'd say he's in favour of criticising those of a certain generation, with too much time on their hands, no real experience in life, an obtuse sense of entitlement due to the helicopter parenting, who recieve most of their political, social and moral views from Tiktok, are constantly latching on to the latest awful injustice that should offend them, spend hours writing tens of thousands of posts on various forums telling those poor folks that grew up in the '80's that they were such Neanderthals, constantly shove their views down people's throats, complain that they cannot get employment with their Sociology degree and then, having changed their name/gender/genitalia/ appearance/barista job, suddenly realise they're in their 40's, single, all their friends have moved on, got married, had kids and careers and no-one seems to have the time to care or protest about racism, xenophobia etc because they're just getting by, like every other normal person in Ireland.

Anyway, wokism doesn't exist outside the m50. Out here, you get a kick in the hole if you start with that auld shtuff.

Excuse me? But why can’t I. I thought it was an honest question after over hearing 2 old guys at the bar counter in the evening!

Atlantic Dawn · 22-10-2023 12:51am

Have medics in Ireland got immunity from prosecution in causing the deaths of born males who identify as females because they wrongly gave them female doses of medication?

Anaki r2d2 · 22-10-2023 12:53am

You know why you can't. Because if I tell you that I think your a xxxxxx xxxxx xx xxxx xxxx. I will get banned.

But maybe, just live your life. Let others live their life. You mind your buisness. Be nice to others.

Life is pretty simple to be fair.....unless your out to find offence. Which you look to be. Have another pint at the "bar counter"

Unless you are slagging off old straight/white/male/irish/christian people, then any/all the above are A OK.

Loafing Oaf · 22-10-2023 1:01am

hey op

You wouldn't be Mr Fegelien's latest incarnation would you?

We’re in for some shock so when all those “doctors and engineers” we imported from the Middle East start organising into a defined political party.

I wonder what the pride parades are like in Gaza, anyway.

Yep. All the RBB and Paul Murphy types waving their wee Palestinian flags...like turkeys voting for Christmas.

Pride parades? Free speech? Freedom of Religion?? In an "independent "Gaza/Palestine??

Better measure ourselves up for our Burkas. 'Cos we were too woke to draw any lines..

Nothing wrong with a bit of casual sexism, racism etc in the right company in the right setting for humourous purposes. Discrimination though is totally wrong.
