Yuyutsu,
The Woke are a perverted & over-mollycoddling parented crowd who think everyone else owes them a living & whatever it happens to be they claim they'd be better at it.
They're oxygen thieving anarchists who despise the rewards others get for their efforts & so they're hell-bent on destroying society that works.
Pontificating on others' past wrongs they now work on the principle of more wrongs making things right !

Dear Individual,

Oh dear, Oh dear, this sounds so awful.

Fortunately I never met anyone who could answer that description.

At least in Australia, despite the high case numbers, there is plenty of oxygen for all patients, no need to steal it whatsoever.

Take care.

It's interesting to consider the main problem with COVID in Melbourne came from super-spreader events like the illegal (and sometimes violent) rallies endorsed and promoted by biassed activists like Topher Field himself.

His former campaigns against the Murray-Darling and his non-factual arguments against global warming fizzled out but he has found a new "cause".

You've watched the "documentary" so now you can go buy the T-Shirts and other merchandise he will soon be selling on his web site.

This is like the annual "they" are trying to ban Christmas/Easter ravings we see from those terminally addicted to persecution and martyrdom and waiting for the next "drop" from Q.

If you disagree with Andrews or any other elected representative you can easily and freely vote them out at the next election. As I recall that's what Democracy is.

Mhaze

ignoratio elenchi:

The video you posted is a fraud in that it’s main aim is in support of anti vaccination.
It sets out to gain sympathy for the persecuted lock down protesters and concludes with support for anti vaccers. (ignoratio elenchi).
Well that’s an argument I’m not a sucker for.

The lock down was a direct cause of much pain: For those people I have sympathy.
The ant vaccers are a totally different group that don’t have the broader sympathy.

What point specifically are you making here!

Yuyutsu,

Being "woke" means being aware, knowing what's going on
in the community (related to racism and social injustice).
It comes from Harlem in the US "If you're woke
you dig it." In other words you understand the problems
that your community is facing. You "awake" to what's
going on around you. It deals with the problems of
racism and social injustice.

And yes it is quite dreadful - but not in the way that
individual has described.

I choose not to look at the video, as usual. Given DD's description of it, I made the right choice. I hate all that red text exhorting me to read what just backs up the poster's opinion. I either agree with a post or I don't. In this case I agree with mhaze, while thinking the situation is even worse than he says. We are over the brink. I might be wrong, but I think that we are probably at the point where populations who lost democracy for good were at when they still had the same naive ideas that are often posted here.
