You could try that but unfortunately what would follow would be unlikely to match. My degree in computing involves working with actual logic, what was your degree in? Dancing? What a burn. Electrical engineering.

Only just better than dancing then.

No. You obviously know, or else you wouldn't be posting on the subject. Whether you decide I know or not, it's important that the specifics are covered here. I'd like to know, and others may also be interested, to know what these terms you use actually mean. First of all, for those who may be interested to read it, what do you consider 'woke' to mean and then what specific elements do you disagree with? It's not difficult and it would be interesting to see it spelt out in the interests of clarity. No? Edited by Glazier#1 (30 Mar 2022 3.38pm)

Sorry? I asked two simple questions and you reply with something unintelligible about toast and marmalade. Why? I don't understand. Don't question it. Get.

Edited by Glazier#1 (30 Mar 2022 3.38pm) Are you seriously trying to convince us that you can't use the internet to look up the meaning of a word? Try 'What is woke?' It's not so much what it is, but how it is used for political purposes. How it impacts on the majority, and how it sets a double standard.

If you can be silly then so can I. It's rule 27b in Hol's secret charter.

Not even that, I'd accept some disappointed tutting as long as the funding's changed.

That is the primary political purpose of 'wokeness' - to keep people frantically moaning about the renaming of a statue they've never visited, over the fact that their elected representatives broke the law 20 times. Edited by EverybodyDannsNow (30 Mar 2022 4.27pm)

How is it used for political purposes, in what way does it impact on the 'majority' and how ]does it set a double standard? It's all very well using these terms but it's all so general. What are the issues, what about them do you actually disagree with? There are probably many topics that could be 'woke'. Name them and then state, specifically, which ones you disagree with. I so often hear the term and so often hear that people hate the idea of 'woke' but seldom do people say what it is about the principal and specific items of woke that they disagree with. It's all so wishy-washy, non-specific. Why don't people come out and say which aspects of it that they disagree with?
