The rise of WOKE: Professor Eric Kaufmann on western cultural changes

[@fatboy10001]

Slow things down??? You mean stop it completely and reverse it

[@CountryGalB]

I'm 22 and I have often heard what an incredible country this was back in the 1980's and 1990's. For me, I noticed the change when I was an early teen. The whole trans and gender thing was unheard of when I was younger. Definitely dark forces at work here with all of this.

[@ripvanwinkle6557]

Also, 22 here. I can't even recognise this country from the one in my early youth. God forbid what this country was like just 30 years ago. 60 years ago sounds to me like a paradise. It is our generation that is most at risk. We face a future as an ethn!c minority in our own lands. It will be c!vil war. Radical and absolute change is required ASAP to save us. It astounds me that we haven't yet mob1lised. We must for we have no choice.

[@CountryGalB]

@@ripvanwinkle6557 I'm with you there. I have also noticed it. One theory is that it is a response to the occupy Wall Street protests. The financial establishment had the frighteners put on it so they are funding all this culture war crap and enabling mass migration to divide us further. Many of these people coming in dinghies are uncivilised and they have zero respect for women such as myself. I have had them perving over me when I walked past a load of them outside their hotel. 🤢🤢 Told them to piss off.

Glad some of you Generation Z haven't been indoctrinated by the woke- God help you as white natives in this land. It'll be an African islamic republic within 20 years unless people wake up fast! Your ancestors fought for your freedoms, time to look up from the smart phones and fight for yours! Resist digital ids and digital currencies and above all, know that it's ok to be white!

This illustrates that the people are not relevant. The only thing that matters is consumers. The world is not run by governments. It's run by international capital like Blackrock, Vanguard. They make money primarily from wars. That's why Ukraine is being prolonged. And why more destabilisation will be promoted in Europe.

[@Jen-lg4hp]

Exactly- the globalists see human beings not as living thinking feeling beings, but as nothing more than cattle to be exploited either as cheap labour or as mindless consumers of their rubbish!

if they had made it easier for Brits to have kids economically.. then we could have a sensible immigation policy.. ; if they bring in people too fast there will be no integration.

[@tomorrow6]

They need the Brit’s to pay for their replacements free housing . Can’t have money left over - they’d “greedily” spend it on their own kids

[@S-North]

They have never integrated in any real or meaningful way at all, throughout the 7 decades that they have been here. The integration idea has failed. It failed a long time ago if we are to be perfectly honest.

[@lulusbackintown1478]

I don't have a problem with legal migrants who want to come to the UK and assimilate into our culture and laws. What I don't want is migrants who won't. I also think legal migration at 600,000 per annum is unsustainable. We simply do not have the infrastructure to support it and the government does nothing to support it. If the government decide to allow 600,000 extra people into the UK then they must show what measures they are taking to ensure the infrastructure can cope and that the existing population won't be disadvantaged by it. It's already creaking at the seams.

[@mariondewit]

You are mentionning 600.000 people coming into the UK, sorry it must be 6.000.000

[@lulusbackintown1478]

@mariondewit 600,000 each year. That is a net figure, i.e total in against total out. 6 million EU citizens stayed in the UK when the UK left the EU.

[@TheTraveller20081]

​@@lulusbackintown1478 it's not 600,000 arriving each year, it's over 1,000,000. That's the figure that matters because it's the one that's changing our culture. Those leaving are predominantly native British, leaving for somewhere safer - which accelerates the cultural change :(
