Woke is alive and well

[PalazioVecchio]

Yes, if you watch those old black and white propaganda films they are full of gushing praise for the brave Russians 'fighting for freedom'.

Diametrically opposed. The West & Stalin fought together to beat Hitler. Then they turned on each other.

Diametrically opposed ? The Woke & 'a certain nameless religion'....seem to have an alliance ? to put Nigel into his place ? And then afterwards, what happens next ?

It's Christmas! Huge backlash to DCC 'Winter Lights' - Gript

Perceived as a failure to recognise the traditional meaning of Christmas - and described as "woke nonsense".

More scrutiny should be directed at the people who make these decisions. They should get more exposure.

Today's comedian.

Man walks into a bar, err no I can't say that it's sexist.

Starts again
Person of indeterminate gender, sexual orientation, race and religion walks into a bar and orders a (have to be careful here) healthy non alcoholic drink.

Pauses (what is this joke about again)

Oh sod it (to the audience) How about them Tories right? (peals of laughter).

a bigger manhunt than Osama bin Laden, Lord Lucan, or Bonny & Clyde.

Better get those NASA satellites into orbit. And a bigger team of cops than got the Yorkshire Ripper. Pablo Escobar ? El chapo & his labyrinth of tunnels ? Cos we cannot have Arch-criminals going around calling a 'them' a 'him'.

Today's them will be no 198. They Who Would Valiant Be.

Yeah, I can't deny.

If it's a choice between this and learning German.

Verpiss dich mit so einer Zukunft – da leb ich nicht drin!

Of course they were bedfellows.

Stalin was called 'Uncle Joe' in the western media and the total value of land lease was $11.3 billion from the U.S. (about $180–200 billion in 2024 dollars) + ≈ £1.2 billion equivalent from Britain/Canada.

Yes, the US gained the most from WW2....it lead to their golden 50s period.

The British lost our empire and status and the consequences have led to where we are now.

The empire was going to be lost anyway. And you believing the media? Can't believe it....

What would have happened could be discussed.....but what do you mean, 'believing the media'?

From which post are you originally quoting me or are you just repeating my general cynicism with narrative media? I want to get the context.
