https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/new-brunswick-school-pronoun-changes-complaint-1.6923174 Well, there goes Higgs' reason to fuck with 713 before the end of this school year. Though not surprised at all considering how much of an asshole and liar he is.

"Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination".[1][2] Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as sexism. Woke has also been used as shorthand for some ideas...

I don't deny white slavery did happen though. Other people do, and they're wrong. White people enslaved white people, Middle Eastern people enslaved white people. It happened. That doesn't make black slavery any less or less tragic, or should be shrugged off considering how long it went on...

Maher is a dickhead and always has been. A lot of video about nothing. He doesn't explain WHY his 2+2=4 (Aka Math)=whatever ideology he thinks it is/white supremacy. It's just whining about how to this one group it supposedly means that. Thirty seconds in and it's smashed together clips of...

WOW... just... WOW. I'll be the first to admit that yeah, our health care system is fucked up, is in need of help and has issues. But some of the stuff in this video - made for kids - is just... absolute BS. For BOTH Canada and the US. The worst part is, these idiots now are having their...

True. There is a split in the GLBTQIA+ community; if they are honest, it's been there from day one. It's only gotten real bad the last few years though. Pretty much.

Mmn, I'd guess my formation about 'wokeness' has been ongoing since I was a teen, to now. It's a gradual thing that's changed in some ways; so... 20-25 years or so is more likely. I'm not sure when you would have formed your ideas; I do think, because you're older, likely longer ago, but it's...

Maybe not you, but there are people out there who are calling it just that. Simple acknowledgment of racism is "wokeness". Reality is, everyone - regardless of color, religion, etc - is racist, bigoted or whatever, at one point in their lives. Whether it's through ignorance or just plain not...

My definition is similar, and a lot like Dex's. So if we can agree on it, then why is being woke such a horrible thing? Why is "Wokeness" such a horrible thing? To be fair, I'm not talking the extreme of it but even just the "We can agree that racism is in and of itself wrong" "wokeness". Too...

It's one thing to bemoan critical thinking, Ron; it's another to bemoan it in one instance, but then bitch about it being "woke" in another. But if certain people want to believe in the idea of woke - and please, define woke for us - as being somehow bad, then whatever. What happened to this...

True, I mean, to try and pull books and think people will support it, but then it backfires so splendidly. Total garbage. If the so called mom's have issues with books, maybe they should just not let THEIR kids look at/read those books, and let other parents make that decision themselves.

Well, did not know this happened.

LOL Backfired.

Interesting take on the whole Aldean song issue. -----...

There used to be a difference between the two, but then Jack Layton died and the NDP went to shit. Right now they're just a little more... I'm not sure if it's left or right of Liberal, it depends on the day :P

Weird. No worries though, sometimes I can find the stuff elsewhere.

Another paywall but found the story about Bilkszto elsewhere. First, that he was driven - yes, driven - to suicide is appalling, disgusting and absolutely the result of bullying. The irony is that those now crying about this, some of them would otherwise shout "Suck it up", "move on" and "get...

IMO if the guy didn't know somehow that the courthouse in conjunction with the song itself would lead to people thinking he's suggesting lynching, then he SHOULD have said "Oh shit, really? I did not mean that, okay, we'll edit the video." Instead he's doubled down with the "That's not what...
