Here in Britain, if a person dies 28 days after a positive test, even if he gets hit by a truck, he'll be added to the Covid deaths stat. It's ridiculous.
So true
He died during the pandemic so let's just add him to the stats

29Covid 19 True Infection Rate / Proof of Misinformation
by Simon inthis is interesting.. you've probably heard of "asymptomatic spread" which is, people who are infected with the virus and are spreading it, but who have no symptoms.. but is it accurate?
is it supported by the statistics?.
this video analyses the facts and concludes that we've been given misinformation due to faulty testing.

Woke Oscars cringe
by LoveUniHateExams inactors' acceptance speeches have often been a little dodgy - viewers don't care what political or social views actors may have, we typically appreciate actors acting well.. this year's oscars awards ceremony seems to be going above and beyond, however.. here's frances mcdormand's acceptance speech, in which she dedicates her victory to 'our wolf' and then howls like a bitch, lol.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-_be0awgwk.

The constant changing of language and definitions of words by the democrats is like keeping up with JW's and their cultish language. When I come home from work and walk by the television in the hotel lobby, it is tuned to CNN. All they talk about is racism for weeks at a time. I don't quite get their statistical mind warp. Police had shot as many blacks as whites, but, supposedly, since there are more whites in the general population, then blacks are twice as likely to be shot by police as whites. I paused and said, well, wait, you have 1 of x times black criminals and 1 of x times white criminals shot by police. That indicates that the police are pretty straight up equal and consistent between shooting blacks and whites as far as criminals.
Is this really about the Woke movement or more about ratings and viewership. If we lump everything together the message gets muddled. The media will do anything to get ratings. "Police shoots an (innocent angel christian criminal) black person" that right there is good television and click bait title. The masses will be lap it up and will ask for more.
Not everything is Dems vs Rep. Politicians will dance to whatever tune will get them re-elected and it is that simple. They don't really care about the people they are supposed to represent. The Dems vs Rep is like the JW vs Catholic Church. It is religion/business and they will do whatever it takes to keep the aid/fleece the worshipers.
Woke is trending now and media/politicians will ride it until the wheels fall off.

It's amazing that anyone ever listens to anything they have to say. They must collectively be one of the least educated groups known to man.
Just think when you were at school, who did "drama class".
Never the bright kids ... right?
Generalization! That might depend on the school as well.
Is the woke movement really new or is it a reflection of society? Society is moving in a different direction and Hollywood is following the shift.
When Salman Rusdhie wrote Satanic Verses, some people put a Fatwa on his head and the West and politicians stood by him. Those types of values are long gone. Now, some journalist was killed in an embassy and dismembered and everyone kept quiet because you have to kiss up to get the black gold flowing.
The point is that society is changing and it is forcing actors and politicians to move in that same direction. It is not about the "bright kids". It is about survival for most actors and politician when you live in a cancel culture. If your livelihood depends on it, it leaves you little room to maneuver.
Back in the 70s film ratings were introduced so that adult content will not corrupt the christian values of society. Today, there is sex everywhere and you don't even have to search for it. Most of those who were horny teenagers in the 70s didn't appreciate the censorship. Fast forward to 2021, Woke movement is everywhere and it is being criticized. It will have its day and like everything else, it will become normal and part of society.
Change is coming and there is little anyone can do about it.

My girlfriend and I always watched the different awards shows. The shows are so woke now, it’s just not interesting! I never have cared what an actor thinks. Like they should be preaching to us what we should think?? Please.
LOL, you had to do a double take to make sure you were not watching JW Broadcasting sunday service

Martin Luther is responsible for having 7 books removed from the Bible. Luther's list of books to remove also included Hebrews, James, Jude and Revelation. The reason Luther wanted to have all these books removed was because these books conflicted with his teaching of of saved by faith alone without works. Does your Bible translation remove the same 7 books because your religion teaches saved by faith alone?
this is a valid question but most JWs don't care too much about bible history and how it got here.
Why do those who take the lead in your religion refuse to apologize, let alone acknowledge, their mistakes in doctrine, later changed, that adversely affected your membership such as those who went to prison for not accepting mandatory alternative service offered in lieu of compulsory military service by the government or of those who died for refusing to accept medical treatment involve blood fractions?
You will be surprised by how little those in the org know about their religion and some of its inner workings.

Headship and WT's Changed Understanding
by Bobcat ini don't think anyone has mentioned that the february 2021 study wt (p. 15, 16; par.
8) changed wt's long standing view on headship within the congregation.
wt used to view all baptized males as being the head of all baptized sisters.. this view led to such absurdities as a sister having to wear a head covering on a bible study because her baptized 10 year old son was sitting in on the study with her.

IXAV, I don't give a rats ass about some microphone holder in Hollyweird. The only time I will pay for a movie is when I agree with the message and its a vote from me to support it. I.E. No safe spaces or some other movie about how the left is destroying the nation. Other than that I do buy Netflix but as for new releases its free of I pass. There are many ways to watch without paying these over paid idiots.
As the JW will say, Jah gave us free will

The Patriarchy Paradox
by LoveUniHateExams in^^^ this is the title of a youtube video made by a teacher of 16 and 17 year old eton students.
he made it as a study aid with the idea being that it would stimulate debate.. eton superiors told him to remove it from the lessons, which the teacher did.
they then told him to remove it from his personal youtube account, which he refused.

just because people (feminist etc) challenge the status quo doesn't mean that they want to turn society on its head - er, yeah, they do. You haven't been paying close enough attention.
Ok, now is your turn to give an example.
Progress as we know it has often been a result of people challenging current views and forcing society to think differently - ok, but what happens when all legitimate demands have been met?
Someone will find something else to bitch about. The quest is insatiable.

The left is going to have to learn a hard lesson. We or many of us don't want to watch some woke BS movie where blacks are inserted and out of place and we don't need nor want some stupid BS lesson on inclusion or any other woke crap. Personally I do not watch any movies that have an obvious woke theme or placement of blacks that are out of place and therefor a message. the awards are nothing more than a circle jerk. I never watch the crap and I don't watch sports at all. And if I want a movie that is out in theaters there are many ways to watch without giving dollars to Hollyweird.
This comment is loaded. You are equating the woke movement with paying people for their work in Hollywood. As you rightly said that you don't watch what you don't like and that make sense. However, trying to find "many ways to watch without giving dollars to Hollyweird" penalizes also those who might share your point of view of the Woke moment. They still need a job and they need to get paid.
