Dude, your playing with me me. The first two paragraphs, said it all.LOL 

Dr.Seuss comes to mind... 

The magnificent moron man didn't take Ivermectin for 19 days. Not weeks,months,or even a year., not for two,not for four,not for six, oh dear... According to a Vet, Naaa .. A decade makes this clear.

Biden showering with his daughter at an inappropriate age,came to mind.

There's a lot to unpack in that post, it got a weee bit rambly.  At the end of the day, you typed the above quote in the same post that included a link to Rumble.com....I almost did a spit-take.

Yah I'll agree it's a bit much... 

cloudy rainy Socal days are few and far between, as is my time here.If you have questions just let me know.Don't be afraid, I can assure you it's not a virus just Russel Brand and a differing perspective..There's some great comedy in there too..bet a few point we can agree on.

The vaccine is 100% effective according to Rachel and big brother,they haven't gotten around to their dis-misinformation yet .

Vaccine efficacy is good.Now it's  about 50%, so if we just take two,we can be back to 100%, if we take a booster we'll be 150% protected.  Just remember, there ain't no guarantees.LOL

But YES, Rumble, because the totalitarians forbade it.This is the dry take and would take the better part of a day.

This might be more efficient.He can toe the totalitain the line quite well.You'll find a jewells in his language every once in a while, like. "I'm not allowed to report this number,But there it is."

 

Personal note,I can't stand the individual profile page, makes it so difficult to appreciate your life experiences and individualism.

I hope you like the vibe. Click the show more for the lyrics.I was saving it for Winsor,but I'll pass it to you.Enjoy

Lotta places ban public nudity as well.  That mean you take all your advice from the crazy naked dude running around downtown?  Cause you know he was BANNED for something, and it must be because he knew the real truth.

Hi Bill,

You need not state the oblious, it's woke for obvious and oblivious.

[mistercwood 282]

I'm rapidly approaching the point where I can assume that anyone using "woke" as a pejorative is not a serious person at all and can be safely ignored. It's so embarrassingly lazy.

Dear Slim,I like the name.

Wonder if you get the impression as I do, That everyone hates you? LOL 
It's not that they simply think your wrong or mistaken, but that we are bad people, morally repugnant for having a different perspective.

I'm  supposed to bring presents when I post, so here's yours.I just realized this is four years old,Let me know if you have this one..I can exchange it  for another.

 

The backstory on this guy .... he's "A refugee from Canada."Sometimes fact is more outrageous than fiction.

With all due respect, it is pejorative both societal and in this forum.  It's antithetical to truth, in so many ways.

Prejudice is lazy ignorance.Being woke requires just that, prejudice.Undeserved benefit to some because of arbitrary race gender or sexual preferences simultaneously discriminates others, base on the same criteria. I'm short on time,perhaps page one would be a good start point.
I should apologize to Winsor, He could a better job of explaining it.

We are Americans mutts,like a box of 101 chocolates.......you never know what you'll get, Professor.

That's funny, the ONLY people I hear using 'woke' these days are the alt-right idiots, using it as a pejorative.

And no, I don't take them at all seriously.

Right, being woke is about recognising the undeserved benefit to some races and genders that is baked into the way society works.

The anti woke deny that it exists, because they enjoy being able to receive said benefit.

Recognizing that their is undeserved benefit to some because of arbitrary race, gender or sexual preference means that .  . . . . you are woke.  You are alert to injustice in society. Good for you.

But now you have to answer the same question.  Now that you are woke - have you become a joke?

I didn't even watch the video, I was just mocking the source. While I'm sure they put out something that is factually correct by accident occasionally, PragerU are basically propaganda via pretty colours and shapes, so as not to too horribly tax their preferred audience's minds.

 

EDIT: And now I've watched it. Yup, we all know *exactly* how those bloodlines get started....

How to break an anti-woke brain:

Author Bethany Mandel wrote a book on the evil woke indoctrination that is going on in this country.  During an interview to promote her book, Mandel claimed that "only seven percent of Americans consider themselves very liberal, and probably fewer consider themselves woke."

The interviewer then asked a simple question.  "What does that mean to you?  Would you mind defining 'woke' because this has come up a couple times, and I just want to make sure we are on the same page."

Now remember, this is a conservative who wrote a BOOK about woke indoctrination. 

Her answer:

"So  . . . I mean . . . woke is . . .sort of . . .  the idea that . . .uh . . .I . . .this is going to be one of those moments that goes viral . . .I mean, woke is something that is very hard to define, I spent an entire chapter defining it . . . it is sort of the understanding that we need to retotal . . totally reimagine and rean . .  re . . . reduce society in order to create hierarchies of oppression . . . um . . . sorry . . .it's hard to explain in a 15 second soundbite."  (At that point she had been trying to define it for 40 seconds.)

And there are a few possibilities for this unusual reply.

1) She's a moron, and can't even put basic concepts into words.  Unlikely, since she did just write a book.

2) She really has no idea what "woke" means.  "Reduce society to create hierarchies of oppression?"  That sounds like the word salad that Miss Teen South Carolina might give when asked about educational problems in America.  Again unlikely because she did write a book about it, and even a minimally intelligent author is going to have access to a dictionary.

3) (most likely) Because when she started to formulate her answer, the things that came to the front of her mind were things she couldn't say on the air.  
"Well, it's letting the gays have their own . . . can't say that.  Hmm.  And it's teaching people that blacks were oppressed in the past . . gonna look like a racist if I say that.  It's letting kids watch trans  .  . . . dang, the last interviewer hammered me on that because I said I liked M*A*S*H.  I can't give the real definition, because I'm not going to sell any books that way.  I need dog whistles!  But I can't think of any!  DAMN YOU INTERVIEWER!"

I posted this, 

"It's antithetical to truth, in so many ways.Prejudice is lazy ignorance.Being woke requires just that, prejudice.Undeserved benefit to some because of arbitrary race gender or sexual preferences simultaneously discriminates others, base on the same criteria. I'm short on time,perhaps page one would be a good start point.

 Funny..your response was is an emoji, and you didn't rebut anything,you simply made the same assertion of being lazy without going back to page one, references and all...LOL

  I didn't know the source of the video, it was Not important.I was merely pointing out the truth in the American experiment.The irony of the politically correct, collective mindset, antithetical to the Professors truth. LOL 

Her reaction I found interesting not the similarities of Jesse and Bubba in their rejection of reality; But an Academic, an American rejecting their lineage and inherent Prestige in the idea of being One, of the First 101.

But you judged the book by it's cover and missed the point Completely, what was the word.... oh ya, projoritive.

The Note was;

"We are Americans Mutts,like a box of 101 chocolates.......you never know what you'll get, Professor."  Emoji back.

My military background as my mindset is based on a  first principle of Meritocracy.My first drill sergeant many moon ago is still a black man who I will always admire,my next two supervisors a black and a brown man,like that makes any difference.Men that would take a bullet for me,as well as I for them.

So keep that shit away from here!  Now you know how real Republican's handle shitheads like that.

Don't freak about the title: we all know there's going to be the few,the proud, the ignorant, racist..but not here.

 Image,Apple firing a black woman for having an opinion.LOL They probably hired a rich white woman to toe their line.

Could you at least agree with me, Apple was wrong in firing their DIE deputy director?

Victims and oppressors.

 Marx would be Proud of  You and his Professor. Strange how it all fits into the equation.

 I hope we can agree. One of the best ways to help,shoulda coulda woulda be,an education for parents/children to have school choice but I've heard that is anti-woke too. Many Anti-Woke critics of unions believe that collective bargaining has created a tangled web of rules that keep public schools from being able to respond to the changing needs of students and that the bargaining process has influenced public education more than any other factor.

In other news,bus drivers and kitchen staff of LAUSD will be going on strike, rest assured, the teachers union will be joining in solidarity.  All praise Randi..

"The anti woke deny that it exists, because they enjoy being able to receive said benefit." 

Broken logic. What you know, just ain't so. I will not be participating in your struggle secessions.

The Anti-woke are not arrogant enough to assume to know how to arrange society in some vein attempt to make it equitable.You probably don't realize it but it's an old Left idea.The Soviet first principle of arrogance. 

I don't blame those that follow good intention,the appeal of their basic humanity.It's a pious claptrap. Subaru comes to mind LOL, Spread the Love, the way to do it is....buy our car.

US hate crimes continued alarming rise in 2021, FBI data shows

The number of US hate crimes increased again in 2021, continuing an alarming rise, according to FBI data released on Monday. . . .

Most of the victims – 64.5% – were targeted due to their race, ethnicity or ancestry. Another 16% were targeted over their sexual orientation, and 14% of cases involved religious bias, according to the FBI report.

Intimidation and assault made up the largest portion of cases, and 18 murders were also reported to be hate crimes.

Half of the religion cases targeted Jewish people, a finding that comes amid rising antisemitism, said the chief of staff at the Western States Center, Jill Garvey.

To Social Justice,I suppose. Since we have a hand on the scales of our society, ya we might as well go there too. Perhaps I'm off target or is your ultimate motivation, the current thing to remove hate from society.If so, I suppose that's a lofty admirable goal.

"Intimidation and assault made up the largest portion of cases, and 18 murders were also reported to be hate crimes."

An elderly Asian man recently murdered six people in cold blood, a Lunar new year party, how could he express any more hated than He did?  Word is those that survived were intimidated. I was hoping you'd have better source,and time frame, to give more perceptive. Considering technology, the ability, eagerness to report and the expanding definition it may support your claim. Unfortunately, Bubba didn't make the list.

I think a boat load of illegals just matched that fatality number in one day, just outside your sunset view. That body count,just a matter of perspective...... look a squirrel !!

I was hoping to get into the unintended consequence of woke in our military.Unfortunately I'm out of time and "out to" you know..Peace out.

So as long as there are minority miscreants, then "good people like you" don't have to do anything, is that it? Bullshit. If we're seeing an increase in hate crimes, then maybe we should look at that, and not focus first on whether every.single.potential.victim is as pure as the driven snow.

And, again, saying that boat people dying makes up for it is also bullshit. It's like saying that gun fatalities are more justifiable than car fatalities, because guns are a right, and cars are a privilege. It's complete and utter bullshit.
