Syd - 'Woke' was the self-description of the 'woke'. Then when people started pointing out their extreme behaviour they decided to get offended by the word - and so the euphemism treadmill rolls on.
Yes wokeism absolutely is a cult.

He wasn't only her husband, he was chief exec of the SNP. Interesting that Sturgeon resigned just a few weeks before this exploded. Clearly she was alerted by the investigating team. Seems unlikely that she had no knowledge of the missing money.

Fishy - JWs commenting on child abuse is as offensive as the KKK preaching about racism.

Everybody in Northern England knows about Pakistani grooming gangs and about the way the police and social services covered it up for years.
The lefty Guardian-reading idiots will continue to blame normal people for noticing and dismiss them as deplorable racists. Labour used to be the party of the working class - for years now it has simply despised them.
For anybody who is interested in an insightful critique of the modern Labour party and the attitudes of Noam Chomsky and his fans see 'What's Left' by Nick Cohen.

Fourteen minutes of Nathan moaning on about how some people don't share his delusions.
What a sanctimonious, judgemental man you are!

Jesus' death is explained as a legal transaction to negate the sin of Adam.
The concept of vicarious punishment for the sins of the believer has been all but lost.

Thanks Barbara.
The religious community shuns members when they leave the group. That means that family members and friends are forbidden to contact them. The exclusion practice can also be applied to baptised minors if they break the community's rules. The State Administrator argued that these practices violated members' freedom of religion and harmed children's rights by socially isolating them.
Difficult to argue with that. It's hypocritical of them to demand religious freedom while denying it to others. Hopefully the court will uphold the decision.

Putin is there because of things *we* did
I disagree. Putin was always going to bring Ukraine back into 'mother Russia'. Unless the cost is made too high he isn't finished.
It is beyond doubt that Ukraine is not a shining beacon of democracy and rectitude. It is equally certain that people will profit from the war but Putin must be stopped. Two things can be true at once. World events are not good guys versus bad guys.
