"Just call your Mum!" "There is no love but the deeds of love." Ironically, It was Jean Paul Sartre who realised the fundamental and vital good faith in this. He practiced what he preached, especially in in respect of his ailing Mum whom he took care of instead of doing what his ego wanted to do : becoming a hero in the Spanish civil war.

@barrylarking8986 Being an intellectual is no excuse for not calling your mother! In fact, if the right (or whoever the hell they are now) were to laud, encourage and prioritise families, and actively support the functional cohesion and bonds in all of them, they'd crush wokery very quickly. Family really is the secret sauce!

Because they have completely 'othered' us. Something they caution everyone against in the name of inclusion! If you're 'othered' then you're a non-person, you don't merit the fair, good treatment that they claim for themselves. Nigel Farage, JK Rowling, Kelly Jane Keen, the gammon are amongst the millions who've been othered.

@EvidensInsania Aye, and at best pie in the sky. This sort of thing sounds like an extension of all those heady uni seminars. I have to say, I enjoy a round of this now and again. But like my old mum would ask, 'Does it get the baby a new bonnet?!'

@king638 I confess, I enjoy this level of discussion for its own sake. But I'm also acutely aware that 'we' represent no more than about 5% of the population. It's no use for this tiny number to be well prepared with well-reasoned arguments if the rest of the population is clueless as to how to repel the wokist onslaughts. Two things, 'we' need to translate exclusive arguments into plain language so that they are useful for those who cannot follow this level of discourse (let's not be coy about this - who you listen to is less about choice than ability to understand what others are saying. That and level of education). Above all, we have to prepare/arm and carry that large section of the population with us. Our fellow citizens are sine qua non in this culture war. Secondly, much as I love all the intellectualising, there comes a point where practical actions are necessary. Wokery has been active in capturing the institutions for years now. We need to catch up very quickly and formulate and put into practice tangible counter measures. It looks to me like women are in the vanguard in this. Please note, that nothing I write is a literal call to arms. This is an ideological war, as such 'we' need to develop coherent language and action plans that are accessible to all.
