Quick note, the original source is from media matters and then the story is amplified by Washington Post that’s not two sources.

a quick run down on Media Matters, it’s a David Brock company, if you’re unaware who he is, hes a PR guru or propaganda artist.
One of his companies is called Share Blue. Is actually half the problem in the US, there trying to be the only source of information. They’ve been caught out lying on numerous occasions, and were pushing the Putin puppet narrative hard.
Here’s there prospectus.
Pg32 covers shareblue

I agree with this:



The country voted against wokesterism. The zombies aren't able to get this through their thick heads.

I hate █████ he is the stereotypical ugly American on holiday.
What I don’t get is people not seeing the same issue with Clinton before, █████ gets more people to counter rally Biden then he gets support. The not █████ vote isn’t just going to cut it.
There’s going to be some very angry people come saying rigged, when they see him get up again.
Don’t listen to network polls, they’re there for ratings. Nothing else.

There's a transcript, but fair call.

Although as SDS notes, there's plenty more fodder where Carlson is involved. Gotta head off in a sec but happy to come up with further examples when I get back on later.

Politics is personal

Research by political psychologists helps to explain why people vote a particular way.

Of course, anyone who now screams "MURDOCH", etc., proves that they are also zombies.

But wokesterism won the popular vote by 3 million

What's your point?

I'm stating why people voted for █████.

I am also pointiong out the contemporary polarization of politics.

Pretty standard sort of stuff unfortunately.

So when you look at a Review of a Hotel, An App, a restaurant etc do you go to the worst, best or latest?

I inevitably start at latest and within 3 clicks am at worst and paralysed with doubt.

You got any evidence for this "anti-wokester" vote? Because I get the sense it is far more complex than that and in fact that would be way down the list.

Wrong, again. Clinton was a centre right candidate who had 3 million more votes. █████ capitalised on an antiquated electoral system that wouldnt have mattered if Clinton was more embraced by the’woke’, to use a dumb **** term.

my two cents, the media in the western world is so terrible and polarising at the moment, that people of both side of the of the political divide are clinging to conspiracy theories 120 characters at a time.
if they dropped the political point scoring and tried to get to the bottom of a story, the world would be in a better place.

Well, then there's the quality of the politics that is being shunted in to them.

Do you remember a time long, long ago, when politics was set up to serve the common folk?

Now it's become a perverse form of personal statue building.

These types wouldnt be able to define woke. It sloshes around right wing media to get people angry.

There he goes equating politics along media lines again.

Honestly, Snake, I cannot for the life of me remember this time you speak of, and I’m 65. Things were so bad back in my youth, I didn’t even bother to vote until I was 30!

I am referring to the pre-Fabian ALP.

You've already been told that your conception of a male working class clocking off from the factory covered in soot is horrendously antiquated. The working class now includes child care workers, hospitality workers, fruit pickers, gig economy workers. The Greens and to a lesser extent ALP is actively working to improve the material condition of these people along with an embrace of socially progressive causes.

Murdoch has rung the 'woke' bell and you've been conditioned to it.

Overwhelming result in Qld.election.

Never underestimate the political power of closing the NSW border.

And SoO hasn't been played yet. I think the Maroons might struggle this year so that worked in her favour.

 

[CharlieMortdecai]

Frankly no. I'm not even sure what you mean. Who are these common folk? John Howard's silent majority? Middle class suburbia? Western suburbs battlers? Immigrant communities?

 

[ferball]

Did I mention the storm yesterday?

On the BoM radar the entire SE Qld area was dark red/maroon (which they would have loved) at one point and in places black which means the rainfall rate across the whole of SE Qlder was over 200mm/hr and in places was over 360m/hr. And they still held the election.

It was crazy.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Yeah its a loaded term but ultimately its meaningless.

I'm firmly of the opinion that Biden is a crypto white supremacist. He probably can't help it. It's cooked into the US' DNA. I see very little difference between the Tuckers and the Bidens of the world. Slightly (barely?) different sides of the same coin to me.

This is an interview with someone who is actually woke. (Not the fake woke, white pow(d)er bullshit Tef is pushing. Seriously the fact you lot are using the term is a joke. The real thing - when the term started to be used it referred to people like him.)

Immortal Technique on why today’s protests are bigger than George Floyd, and gives advice to young activists

"[Jesus Christ] was a f**king rioter. If that guy was alive, that n**ga would’ve gone into Chase Bank and flipped that s**t over," the rapper/activist told REVOLT. "He flipped over the money changers in the temple."

Here are some bits from it...

I feel like a lot of the youth need to understand that the blame don’t lie with the police solely. They are the front line. They are the pawn in the chess game. You gotta talk about the district attorneys. You gotta talk about the people that are in charge. And in many of these places, you can’t just blame, for example, racist Republicans. Sure, you can put them in their place for the s**t that they’ve done and the kind of tone-deaf attitude that they have on racism. But, in a lot of these places, we have to understand that these are Democratic mayors, Democratic governors who have taken Black and Latino people for granted for years. Both of those criticisms can be right at the same time.

...

Now mind you, the end of the movie (Do The Right Thing) is crazy because it shows you, this is what happens with violence. This is the result. Everything is going to burn down. Everyone is going to go. Now, is that the plan? Is that what they want? Maybe. So, we have to organize against that. Now remember what those kids said: “We’re not trying to start a race war. We’re trying to end a race war that’s been going on for 200 f**king years." And finally we’ve got young people and n**gas are mad because people are protesting. We tried to protest peacefully, tried to take a knee. That was not good enough for people.

This is a bloke who was doing food drives for 150 families a week a few months ago while he was doing this interview. Almost no one has heard of him, especially compared to the likes of Kanye and JZ yet he sold enough CDs out of the back of his van at gigs in NYC to help fund building an orphanage in Afghanistan. Wokesters....

Read the rest, it's worth it.
