Are we all becoming woke snowflakes?

[Rita_Poon]

Interesting first post by @Everstone in the very tense and highly charged DCL thread

‘Would someone be kind enough to list all areas of conversation forum members aren’t allowed to joke about?
It’s getting a bit dull reading the virtue signalling tripe coming thick and fast.
Are people with metal health problems allowed to laugh at a joke about mental health problems? Or are folks going to have a problem with that too?
Perhaps spending a little less time wetting yourself over other peoples opinions might help ?’

Are we all too sensitive these days or are we right to correct people if they cause offence?

Firstly,


Secondly, "wokeflakes"?

Thirdly and finally, wanna go half and write to Kelloggs, see if theyre game?

I separately and unintentionally offended two different feminazi snowflakes on Facebook this week. They had posted some anti-man memes about the clowns in the US illegalising abortion. The memes were vulgar and used obscene and aggressive language. I wasn't offended but if anything made weary than the anti-man stance so I pointed out these things:

1. While I was uncomfortable with murder, I agree with women having the right to choose - on the basis that the planet is quickly becoming overpopulated.
2. Their posts were generalising all men and demeaned them - this was misandry which is as bad as misogyny.
3. The law change brought about by the supreme Court is now controlled by a woman, so their hate speech against men and the claimed patriarchy was misplaced.

Were they offended? These factual observations precipitated an avalanche of indignant, illiterate, poorly spelled, illogical rants and abuse because I, a mere man, had contributed to a public debate and even agreed with their cause. They got quite personal.

I bit my tongue and didn't comment on the grammar, poor spelling, total lack of rational discourse or rise to the insults. But when one of them, responsible for the absolute worst atrocities against the English language announced with pride that she "worked in a secondary school" I think a vein started bulging on my forehead.

I simply commented that "well, we have a tory government, so schools are underfunded, the pay isn't great and there's a crisis in recruitment, so I guess they're taking on anyone these days."

With that grenade dropped in their bunker I scarpered with the satisfaction of knowing a snowflake was well melted. Bunch of mefs.

The "anti-woke brigade" are the biggest snowflakes going.

Chris and his thinly veiled misogyny strike again

I like people who are rational or humorous or interesting. I dislike people who are irrational, unfunny, repetitive and boring.

On balance;
I have come to hate very, very few people, maybe 3 in a lifetime. There are few people I really like; a smattering i like a bit, there are many I dislike. The rest I reserve judgement until I know them (ie given the chance I wouldn't (at the moment) press a button to annihilate them)
Gender has absolutely nothing to do with it - so it is not misogyny.

You (like so many feminazis) mistake my dislike of boring, repetitive, irrational humourless people as dislike of a single gender. It is not. I am an equal opportunities disliker.

I'm disappointed that in 12 pages this hasn't been branded unsafe for work yet.
