  1. I’m a white Englishwoman and I’ve been on the receiving end of racist language and behaviour, on one occasion being threatened very specifically for daring to walk through a non-white area of my home city. As for discrimination? I was turned down for a job at my local Council because I was white. Yes, I was actually told that. Quotas have been around for over thirty years.

  2. For years, I’ve looked forward to Black History Month imparting some actual history. So far, it’s been highly disappointing.

  3. Because, if any of the indigenous British speak out, it’d be a hate crime and off to the gulag. Ironically, being Russian, Konstantin is protected by the laws we would be breaking.

  4. It’s happened in France, too. One more similar event and we’ll know it’s not coincidence.

  5. Given it has been suggested that a large proportion of young girls diagnosed with autism are taking puberty blockers before moving to cross-sex hormones and full neutering operations, I'm very much of the opinion that we're seeing a eugenics programme in action, so of course no one wants clinical psychologists involved.

  6. Narcissistic rage is truly terrifying. And the worst of it is: it’s deliberate. It’s actually possible to mark the calculated instant the Narcissist decides force is necessary. Afterwards, the Narcissist will go full DARVO or - and this is where things get really crazy - deny that the incident happened, even if there’s evidence to prove it did. Most Narcissistic rage incidents are private and one-on-one, abuser to victim. That the trans activists feel confident enough to act out in front of witnesses is extremely worrying.

  7. According to a recent training document I read, anything can be a “micro-aggression” if someone says it is, and the aggressor will be punished. We’re living in a Kafkaesque universe run by weak bullies.

  9. Where I live, there’s a couple of no-go areas for anyone not of a particular ethnic origin. Our local council says this is A Good Thing as these areas are preserving specific cultural heritages, so we should all be respectful and grateful for their input to our society.

  14. Ebenezar Elliott (The Corn Law Rhymer) (1781-1849) had something to say about this: “What is a Communist? One who hath yearnings For equal division of unequal earnings, Idler or bungler, or both, he is willing, To fork out his copper and pocket your shilling.” Karl Marx published his little book in 1848…

  15. There’s a lot of parallels between what’s going on and huge-end-hics. My posts get censored if I use the real word, which I feel is an absolute giveaway.

  20. Was compelled to attend a workplace lecture on understanding the non-binary queer spectrum. Without identifying the variations shown on slides, the speaker trotted out the usual generic suspects: Turner’s, Klinefelter, and Jacob’s Syndromes, plus Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS). Even fatal trisomy was claimed as valid. To cap that, the speaker rampaged through anthropology, mythology, and philosophy. Dunno about understanding the gender spectrum, but that was an excellent presentation of the Dunning-Krueger Effect.

  21. I was an active Trade Unionist in 1999. I told my Brothers that a minimum wage might provide a reasonable starting wage but would inevitably lead to skilled and specialist workers being paid the same amount as the unskilled, depressing overall incomes and impacting on both society and the economy. It was the damn obvious elephant in the detail. Fast forward twenty years: a very Left colleague finally admitted that I had been correct. For good measure, he also admitted that my warnings about Tony Blair had been spot on.

  22. But, in certain places, if you do parent your child, the state might not like it and intervene.

  25.  @megowopwop8545 and abuse is all about control founded on entitlement.

  26. Nope. Replace student loans and course fees with grants, and permit only the top 2-5% achievers per academic year to enter University. We used to do that in the UK, you know. Before someone had the bright idea of cramming every young ‘genius’ into HE and charging them for the privilege with lifelong debt.

  27.  @CentreMetre look it up. An awful lot of social workers got behind the idea.

  28. If all police are wrapped up investigating the “non-crimes” of the innocent, the real criminals can get on with serious crime undisturbed. Or maybe it’s just a grift…

  29. “Talking is cheap, people follow like sheep Even though there is nowhere to go. How could she tell he deceived her so well Pity she’ll be the last one to know.” Silence is Golden, 1964. Perhaps that’s a bit out of context, but…

  30. I’d like to point out that castration aka gelding is the removal of the testes only. This is not the same as emasculation, which removes the penis, too. Historically, eunuchs were castrated; prisoners of war were humiliated and executed by emasculation.

  33. I know it's stupid to mess with the endocrine system, especially around puberty, so why didn't these professionals ask questions?

  34. Having seen two large groups of young men facing off because they were of different ethnic groups - Kurds vs Pakistanis - I very much agree that the UK has imported a lot of problems, but no one wants to tackle such things for fear of upsetting one side or the other and getting slurred by the ‘victims’. Notice that the Leicester incident has been swept under the carpet? If one party had been young white men, there’d have been a lot more mileage in it for the talking heads and fhe press.

  42. I worked as a job-broker. We had jobs from employers and spoke to prospective applicants. At no stage were we responsible for the job content except when it broke guidelines (the job was potentially illegal or immoral or both). If customers didn’t wish to apply for a job with a company they disliked, they didn’t cancel us and make a song-and-dance about it.

  43. My late father used to say: “You can smack an Englishman once, and you can smack him twice, but, by God, never then kick his dog.” He was, of course, referring to Luke 6:29, but with the rejoinder not to push your luck and, right now, a lot of badly behaved, intolerant and cruel people are actively putting on their boots. I fear we shall soon be living in interesting times.

  45. Heck, my children have both decided to vote Reform. As it stands, they can't afford a home of their own, they can't afford to find a marriage partner, and they cetainly can't afford to raise children.

  46. Back in the day, not so long ago, women were warned not to go out in provocative clothing in case men assaulted them. But it takes two to tango and men unable to control themselves are the other half of the equation. Remember, young girls in school uniform are provocative, as are nuns or older women in twin-set and pearls, to some fringe males…

  47.  @vuchaser99 nope, not cognitive dissonance; that entirely a different thing. The word you need is ‘ignorance’.

  49. Any sensible parents asked to allow a female friend of their self-declared gay son to stay for a sleepover would instantly consider all kinds of negative what if’s… And if you’ve not worked out what those could be, you’re still naive.

  52. Hi, I wouldn’t call myself an intellectual, although others have popped that label on me. Over the years I’ve been shamed many times for saying “I don’t know”, usually by people who damn well know far less than I do. I’m sure this is quite a widespread thing. It’s all oneupmanship.

  53. I’d just like to point out that, after a cricket match a year or so ago, a non-Christian religion went for members of the religion of peace brought to my UK city to cause a riot. Grab your popcorn.

  54. It’s amusing to see how Victorian writers sanitised old fairytales and folklore for children. On the other hand, some of those supporting this ideal had rather….dubious intentions towards innocents.

  55. Do you even know what Old English is? Or Middle English? Seems to me that you don’t even understand Modern English. Why, yes! I am an English Lit and Lang graduate. I got an education, me.

  56. Spot on! It’s a real term meant to encompass those who need extra support. However, I’ve encountered many “neurodivergent” young people and adults who are best described by the phrase “as thick as two short planks nailed together with a yard of lard”. A lot of effort is going into keeping the latter group happy because they’ve been given tools to weaponise their ‘illness’.

  57. Well, of course such Woke ideals will, when applied to the field of medicine, be a likely cause of incompetence and lead to deaths. This is how the state decreases the Surplus Population.
    2
  58. You refer to the group which saw state benefits as the easy way out? An awful lot of those girls hung around with irresponsible young men, usually a few years older, and then casually declared they didn’t know who the father of their child was.

  67. The patience? Having dealt with a number of people who can’t seem to comprehend simple written information, I’d say they don’t have the intelligence.

  68. The gentleman is entitled to his opinions, but he’s clearly playing the victim game for kudos. He probably also believes he’s not being racist.

  69. No need to test for IQ. Just ask their EQ.

  70. Try having a logical conversation with a Dark Tetrad personality. They know they are saying or doing wrong but pretend - primarily for their own sanity - that they don’t understand their victim(s) objections. The easiest example would be making a joke out of something a Narcissist, Psychopath or Sociopath said or did; they’ll all instantly claim they’re offended and may seek immediate punishment for the joker. Machiavellians, btw, will laugh along and deal out-of-proportion retribution later.
    2
  71. Unfortunately, I don’t need to imagine. I was born in the early 1960s.

  72. I was married to a Narcissist for an awful long time. He could be “offended” if I disagreed with his point of view, or said something he thought was a personal attack on him, or remarked that it was a lovely sunny day… The rage meltdowns were always illogical and truly something to behold. I know it seems baffling - it did to me for the longest time - but boils down tactics of entitlement and control. In fact, whether it’s individuals on the Dark Tetrad or cults or whole ideological groups, it’s all the same thing.

  73. Who do you think will be blamed? The patients agreed to the interventions, after all.

  74. Isn’t it amazing how, despite the cack, we’ve still got an economy and society? All those young people grow up to be… us.

  78. This “craze” being capitalised on by older abusers and fetishists. It’s not just affecting girls and young women, but all women, of all ages. I will not tolerate a man committing gross indecency in a public toilet designated for females while yelling that objectors are istaphobes or, worse, taking physical advantages.
    1
  79.  @wendylpa yes! It’s referred to as reducing the Surplus Population! An Essay on the Principles of Population [Malthus, 1798] basically advocates for the church and state to enforce celibacy, and make it financially impossible for the poor to marry or, if they do, unable to afford to raise a family. Does this ring any alarm bells yet? Overturning Roe vs Wade has hidden connotations when considered in this context and, of course, transgenderism is nothing more than propaganda driven neutering (or eugenics, as it’s more correctly called), although some predators and fetishists think it’s all for them. A scapegoat is always useful to distract attention away from those driving the propaganda. If women don’t agree with The Message, they are despicable TERFS - if they agree, they are ‘feminists’ - if they break under coercion and state-orchestrated pressure, they are to blame for the outcome and, helpfully, have already been conditioned by society to blame themselves. It’s taken me years to reason this out…

  80. I remember the good old days, back when we heard the lyrics of ‘Lola’ in 1970, nodded sagaciously and moved on. After that, there came the New Romantics… Thank goodness Tyson wasn’t around spouting his disingenuous stupidity then. EDIT: He’s not very knowledgeable about social history either, is he?

  81. Ahh, diddums. If the gentleman is so oppressed by the racism of skin colour in a UK workplace, he should find work elsewhere. I’d suggest Japan or Finland.

  82. The reason “young people are locked out of the housing market, unable to pair up and unable to have kids” is: Reducing the Surplus Population. In 2023, we’re facing The Great Reset which is nothing more than a revamp of ideas first published in Thomas Robert Malthus’ 1798 ‘An Essay on the Principles of Population’.

  86. I’ve read Chaucer and Shakespeare! I’ve got the big books, although I have let a lot of criticisms go (my now ex thought them too pretentious). I hold a BA Hons in English Lit and Lang. Strange coincidence, eh?
    1
  87. I’m afraid that the current UK education set-up precludes trade training until age 16, mainly because of Health and Safety requirements. It would take a massive overhaul to bring back Techs at age 14-16, then a change in employment law.

  88. How do modern jesters hold up the mirror to reality when reality is being deliberately distorted?

  94. Because someone, somewhere, not only wanted to remove the LGBs from the equation, but also considered any young person suffering from mental health issues (or autism) should not be allowed to pass these on to the next generation. Basically, it’s old-fashioned eugenics.

  100. Years ago, a man entered my work office and refused to speak with white members of staff. He wished only to speak with those who understood him, and promptly launched into a loud conversation in a non-English language. The non-white staff were bemused. Yes, the pillock assumed that brown skin meant those staff were native to his country of origin.

  103. “…ratify this before Labour come in” isn’t a throwaway line at the end of this piece - if/when the Labour Party return to run the UK, Political Correctness could, quite simply, go insanely all-out for “trans” rights to the detriment of women. It’s already happening in the US.

  105. I graduated in 1982 with a Humanities degree. The only politics we were required to discuss were AD 688 to 1604. Mind you, the UK was already in Societal Political Correctness Stage II at that point and I think everyone was sick of it, especially with all the finger-pointing and race-ist labelling of anyone who challenged the “new normal”.

  119. No, you’re missing the point. The propaganda - The Message - is a clever way of annoying as many normal people as possible. Eventually, a ‘saviour’ will emerge to challenge the absurdities and demand a return to better days; the Woke will wither before him (for it will be a man) and he, with his supporters, will triumphantly ride the wave of the popular vote to… a Brave New World?
