Woke is alive and well

As an ex teacher you ought to know the difference between education and indoctrination!

You clearly don’t though.

Teaching encourages open minds to enquire, learn and decide.

Indoctrination closes minds and forces them to accept beliefs.

If there is any indoctrination going on it is coming from the right in its steadfast refusal to consider progressive ideas and allow them to be examined by our young people. The right is trying to force the young to accept their beliefs.
It's alright.

Very simple: the right want to be able to indoctrinate with their values rather than anybody else's.

Nothing more, despite all the protestations about free speech. It's propaganda, mate.

Well, I was a teacher and you weren't.

Your definitions are purely subjective. But your suggestions that young children should be dealing with such topics is insane. Also, given that this is a left wing state, not only is the topic inappropriate, but I don't trust the teaching to be objective at all.

I know the difference between common sense and bullsh1t.

And I have to say you certainly talk a lot of the latter.
 
It's true, a lot of the consequences of woke are because of HR mentalities ruling institutions that were previously male dominated but are now increasingly female dominated.


It's a path to failure, both financial and competitively, which eventually results in dystopia and relative poverty compared to societies that aren't woke, especially as the consequences of birth rate destruction are increasingly realised.

It's kind of the story of Adam and Eve being played out in modern times by atheists and agnostics (of which I'm one).....People devoid of common sense or just keeping their head down to pay their mortgages while the boomers and Gen X elites continue to gut the society that previous generations built over centuries used blood and sweat and not a little genius, mistakes or not.

if you want a metaphor for this, your medieval army employs a Messi/Achilles type hero. And one of the women*, back at the depot, does everything within her power to get him fired. Cos that's what she does, again and again. Rolling around the ground and crying to the bosses that Messi always leaves coffee cups in the sink.
Modern Organisations now pay less attention to 'getting the job done' and more attention to not hurting the feelings of super-sensitive cry babies. That's what Woke is.

And then your medieval army goes up against China/The Mongols/Joe Stalin......and gets destroyed.

*....she may be wearing the hat of a senior General or only be a lowly secretary. It matters little.

I loathe these kind of twats.

Here's some more in relation to Charlie Kirk.

Just a word of advice.

There is a recent analysis which suggests that those who routinely post on social media in the middle of the night (Trump being the primary example) are, unless they are regular night workers, doing serious damage to their health and well being.

Sleep is a very necessary requirement for your brain to recover and function properly. Sleep deprivation is thought to be an early warning sign of the possible onset of dementia. So the advice given was to avoid it and, if you cannot, to seek help.

Just noticed this post!

Well you were a teacher, but now you aren’t. You are a bitter ex teacher in a world in which you think you were the only teacher marching in step.

Where did I specify the age at which any subject should be introduced? All I said was when they are it’s the purpose of teaching to provide information and encourage enquiry and not to indoctrinate the views of the teacher. Nothing at all subjective involved. It’s indeed common sense.

when i see video footage of average working men from the 1950s or earlier, i envy them of the society they lived in. Affordable housing, working in jobs that supported a stay-at-home wife and many kids, the collective camaraderie of a people not stuck looking at a mobile phone all day. The ability to crack a joke at Work without getting fired for it.

We now have a bunch of 35 year old 'men' who barely qualify for the moniker. Single, childless, and still living with elderly mum & dad. Staring at a screen all day.

Written, as usual, from an entirely misogynistic viewpoint. Not a word about the position of women.

We have both a housing crisis and intrusive social media. We live in changed and changing times which produce many challenges. Moaning about change and wilfully dreaming of days past won’t stop those changes.

Everyone, male or female, with the right attitude and necessary determination and fortitude, can succeed today. It was much harder in the days of my parents. They were expected to know their place and so was I. It was only much later that I realised, at least some, of my potential. That being due to societal change. Or progressivism.
