The woke mind virus is the biggest threat to civlization

Is the mind the same as the body? What is consciousness? Can machines have it?

''Video unavailable in your country''.
I find Piers Morgan to be an interesting character. He has some good things to say about wokism.

That's too bad...I cannot believe it's not showing in your country...that really sucks...because I think you would enjoy listening to the video i have posted.

Maybe try some other way to download the voice that is PM..hmm, IDK..

Yes, he's spot on the point about wokism. I like people who walk the walk and talk the talk, and are exactly what it says on the tin.

Wokeism is essentially for people who want to be “on the right side”, but either can’t think through issues themselves and thus need to be told how to think, or, are morally bankrupt and are compensating.

Or, they don’t agree with it but are too scared to speak out against it, as wokeism tends to be threatening to individuals who stand out and speak their mind. Wokeism is a form of bullying in a way, and as such is self contradictory.

Some good observations here. Yes, it's bullying. 'Compensating because they are morally bankrupt' explains a lot. They don't actually care about anyone, but they have a need to be seen to be 'caring' because it's useful to them in some way. The fact that they are always calling people who aren't racist 'racist' smacks of deflection and self-loathing.

Another point. One can care about the exact same issues as wokeism, but in a different, more exploratory way, rather than a left brained, “your with us or against us” attitude.

Wokeism also has the opposite effect of which it desires, and tends to turn neutral parties against those issues wokeism makes out it cares about. As such, it does more harm than good for those points it raises.

Wokeism could do with a good dose of the Dao De Ching. Less is more, especially on issues of morality. Use a light hand, take care of what needs taking care of and let the system thrive, and energy will naturally flow to where it needs to.

Love it. You've really hit the nail on the head. Most people dislike racism, bullying, injustice, cruelty etc. but anyone is going to get antagonised when some drop-kick calls them a 'racist' or a 'bigot' when it's patently untrue simply to shut them up and get out of producing a rational argument.

How long before Monty Python gets 'cancelled' for its hilarious portrayals of middle-aged women? (They've probably left that one alone because they can't decide if it's 'offensive' to women, or 'transgenders'). Or ANY TV series where an ACTOR puts on an accent and speaks in a way that is an accurate depiction of exactly the way that particular nationality speaks in English? Comedy skit show Full Frontal had someone impersonating Janet Jackson in one segment in the 1990s that wokedom has dug up from the archives and dear god, shock, horror, they had made the WHITE comedian's skin DARK to make her look like Janet Jackson! I think I might faint with the horror of it. Celebrity impersonators are apparently only 'allowed' to do Michael Jackson in his later years, after he turned white :lol: How long before using fake tan is called 'cultural appropriation' and 'semi blackface'? It never ends. Moronic wokie fuckwits must spend all of their worthless little lives troweling through old TV shows and movies searching for things to get 'offended-on-behalf-of' by.

I saw that episode - did the wookies get agitated over that?

Apparently Justin Trudeau painted himself black for fancy dress party, I couldn't believe all the hysteria, it's the wookies that make it seem like being "black" is a bad thing - how ironic.

The BBC has a dark mind.

It was the BBC who made Jimmy Savile into a British National Treasure.


The dark side of the human mind...must be suppressed. . in the denial of our true nature which is reptilian...we literally are no different now than we were back through the prehistoric time where we lived like the Flintstones...The point is, animals do not suppress their true nature ...only humans do...in their refusal to accept the truth of their real nature..and so all we have done is invent a FAKE REALITY...for ourselves. Human reality is fake as fuck.

We live in world where we fear not being taken seriously....I mean wtf...do you think my cat struts around all day wanting and needing to be taken seriously by me...I think not.

No, it was the stupid English. How anyone could admire something like that is beyond comprehension. I saw him on the Louis Theroux series before it all came out and thought 'yuk', having never even heard of him. People should never bring up their children to like and accept everyone. They should be brought up to trust their own instincts--we have them for a reason.

Yes it was the English...but it was the BBC who gave him the platform to make himself known.

And now we have 'Youtube' and family vloggers..where children who cannot make informed consent are paraded in front of the whole world. The dark side of humanity is raised from the dead...the show must go on.
