A victim of ‘wokeness’ bravely shares his ordeal:- His/her name has been omitted due to post-brexit trauma. I was sitting down for my tea the other day and put on the television only to see an advert for Morrisons with a black family in it. I mean, don’t get me wrong. I’m all for coloured people up to a point. Some of my best friends know coloured people. But at teatime? This sickening diversity propaganda put me right off my potato waffles.

As usual, you completely miss the point. I'm not sure seeing Black people put anyone off their tea but the ludicrous disproportion of Black people in advertisements and TV in general just might. And then we have absurdities like Stephen Lawrence Day. Every area of the arts, entertainment, sport and industry is being warped by a fascist style dictate that they have to pander to the ever increasingly ludicrous rules of racial/gender equality. It is clear that equality now has nothing to do with it There is a point at which these things are a force for good and then a point where they turn into nuttery and cynical manipulation. We are already well past the latter.

As if this wasn't a fake message, written by someone with the usual current agenda. Yes, we get it, we're all racists even if we don't know it. I presume that includes people of colour, and people of any colour, otherwise it's racist against people of non-colour in itself. Something that provides hours of senseless explaining by people who don't understand their own argument. I had someone lecture me for ages recently about how sub consciously racist I was, because I'm white. The conversation ended with 'I'm so glad to be judged like this, thanks'. Red and Blue Army!

Yup the old get out of jail card for the progressives. What they actually mean is "I think you are a racist unfortunately I can't prove that because you haven't said or done anything racist still I'm right so it must be your unconscious bias".

The irony of their stereotyping of all white men is genuinely comical. They entertain me, quite frankly. The best laugh I get is the names of their kids. The you hear 'I'm not raising my kid any particular gender' and you just know it's not going to end well. (I raise an eyebrow but you can't say anything can you?). Rather sadly, whatever has happened, seems to have already happened. Funnily enough, I don't remember having any choice over it. But obviously, in this world, everyone can do what they like as long as isn't 'offensive', which now must be the most widely defined word in the world. It must be literally meaningless to mean so much to so many. Red and Blue Army!

Thanks, we aim to lighten the mood Originally posted by Lombardinho I like the title of this thread. It makes me smile. Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Woke ads are for me a no go and will generally boycott the products if I can. I never really used Starbucks and won't going forward. Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition.

Originally posted by Jimenez I thought it was 'people of colour' That's not how Alf Garnett described them. And, btw, I had a Golliwog when I was a boy. Loved it. I suppose in some people's eyes that makes me racist. Things were different 70 years ago.
