Over the last few years I have made very good friends whom are now disingenuously labelled as BAMEs and LGBTs+
I’ve had plenty of conversations with them covering all sorts of issues, not least this current woke bollocks called Identity Politics, which covers a multitude of so called populist issues including sexism, racism, homophobia and so on.
It is true to say that some of my friends have been on the receiving end of some nasty racist/sexist abuse, but for the most part most of that happened well over 5 or so years ago – well before Identity Politics entered the social media arena.
But more recently they’ve been receiving abuse due to the Woke’s virtue signalling agenda and taking every “victim” and lumping them under the BAME and LGBT labels in order for the Woke crusaders to come charging in defending their cause.
What this means, for example, is a good friend of mine who is a black female born in England, but with no political axe to grind is now seen as a victim because the Woke seem to think she needs to be represented on the political stage as a BAME rather than just someone minding their own business.
The same also applies to a couple of gay and lesbian friends, who feel rather pissed off at this proxy representation that has now somehow pushed them into the spotlight under the LGBT+ label, and everyone has to somehow give them special attention and respect because they too are victims as far as the Woke are concerned. Whereas in truth they would rather be left alone and enjoy their ordinary lives as ordinary people.
It seems that the Woke and some chippy minority groups just want to stir the shit for their own political aims, and they want to drag in as many disenfranchised groups to make it look like they’re speaking in their name on the global stage. Whereas in fact they’re just doing it for their own selfish grandstanding. A bit like the leaders of the BLM, most of whom appear to have become millionaires, bought a few mansions in posh WASP areas and quietly distanced themselves from the harsh realities they were supposed to supporting.
Basically its another tail wagging the dog scenario, and yet it seems the dog (the governments, and the silent majority) sits back placidly and lets the minority dictate terms on behalf of the majority.
How the fuck is that democracy in action?
