You cannot be this naive...

reply

He's not naive, he's just a Believer.

"Islam" means peace in Arabic. Muslims means literally those who look for peace. And they truly believe the Islam is the religion of Peace. The same way, wokes truly believe Wokeness is the ideology/religion that fights against injustice.

IT ISNT REAL...I CANT BELIEVE IN SOMETHING MADE UP BY FRUSTRATED ASSHOLES ON THE INTERNET...ANY MOVIE OR TV SHOW COULD BE CALLED WOKE IF YOU APPLY YOUR CRITERIA FROM THE RIGHT ANGLE.

reply

"IT ISNT REAL..."

You remind me of little children who try to make bad things go away by holding their eyes shut.
However, reality does not care if you close your eyes, it exists either way.

reply

GIRLS,GAYS AND NON WHITES ARE A BAD THING NOW?...YOU GUYS WHO CANT ACCEPT ANYTHING THAT DOESNT CONFORM TO YOUR EXPECTATIONS ARE THE BAD THING THAT NEEDS TO GO AWAY.

reply

"GIRLS,GAYS AND NON WHITES ARE A BAD THING NOW?"
Quote anyone here saying that.
Go on...

Oh right you can't, because no one ever said anything like it, you're just pulling shit out of your ass as usual.
Time to meet my ignore list, the perfect place for people like you.

reply

WE WERE DISCUSSING "WOKENESS"...AND YOU MADE THIS ANALOGY....

reply

But isn't the blind belief in something, ignoring any facts, exactly... naive? :D
Good comparison though, Inshallah my peaceful brother, wanna rent a truck?

reply

Human mind is hardwired to bypass facts when they conflict with strong beliefs¹. That's how we are. What makes a religion dangerous is not the religion itself, but people believing in it so strongly that they become literally blind to reality.

Even if your religion theory did hold some water, you seem to deem everybody who disagrees with you to be 'a believer'.

Like with any given religion, I'm agnostic. Not entirely in denial of its existence, but unlikely to be sold on it either.

With 'woke-ism' or whatever you might call it, the only demographic going on about it are older white men who think they're being phased out culturally, so the natural reaction seems to be to call it a religion they're in no way responsible for one way or another, casting themselves as the blameless bystanders. It doesn't hold up.

I thought "Islam" meant "submission "

reply

Yes and No. It's a bit more complex than that.

Arabic is based in root words, that usually have three syllabes. In this case, the root word is "sa·la·ma", which means peace. If you apply the 4th form to it, that usually means cause, you get "a·s·la·ma", which would mean "to cause peace" and can be translated as to surrender and to embrace Islam. "Islam" comes from that from so it could be translated as the cause for peace.

"Muslim" doesn't use that form, it comes directly from the root and uses the past participle, so it would mean "pacified". Who caused that man to be pacified? Of course, the "cause for peace".

It think "Islam" is a made up word using the term peace as a root. It ended up meaning surrender. Like somebody creating a new religion and using the term "peace down".

It's like "diversity", that has ended up meaning "more blacks" even though the original meaning wasn't that.

reply

Interesting.

woke ... translated into german: erwachen

Werent there a party in germany during the 1930s using the slogan "Deutschland erwache"?

Seems like for a few fascists its time again to get "woke".

Racism sucks... but being falsely accused of racism sucks too.

The latter explains why some people are irked by "woke" propaganda.

reply

MURDER SUCKS...BEING FALSELY ACCUSED OF KMURDER SUCKS TOO...

NEXT TIME IM ACCUSED OF MURDER ILL BE SURE TO START ACTUALLY MURDERING IN RESPONSE.

reply

The ironic thing is that those who are falsely accusing others (Caucasians) of racism are guilty of racism.

Meanwhile those who are being falsely accused have the right to object to this abuse. They are not committing racism, but rather objecting to racism. What would you have them do -- be silent, sheeple who pathetically kowtow to Liberal fascism?

So your witty little parallel isn't really apropos.

Speaking of murdering, who is it that's ACTUALLY committing murder and other thuggish acts in our communities? Certainly not Conservatives, but rather those who are Burning, Looting, Murdering in our cities and those who support/condone this criminal behavior. And who are they? Dems/Libs.

YUP...YOU HAVE LOTS OF WORDS TO JUSTIFY YOU OLD WHITE HATE...GOOD WORK.

reply

Considering it hasn't been released yet, I have no idea.

reply

Since the media made a huge deal with feminist writer Phoebe Waller Bridge being brought in to write the screenplay its probably a good indication its going to be bad. After this movie bombs Bond can go away for a while until they find the right people to reinvent the franchise.

reply

You can say that again.

Quite possibly but it seems that we are not going to get the ending where in the final scene Lashona Lynch takes up the mantle of 007 and then we see the gunbarrel at the end and it's Lashona Lynch. If they treat Bond like a whiny manbaby like they did with Luke Skywalker I'm sure the backlash will hit them pretty hard.

The way the black female agent talks to him in the first trailer is not what I expect from a Bond movie.

I don't want Bond slapping women like he used to back in the 60s... but I don't want to see him being
treated like a wimp POS either.

I will not be watching this film.

SO...A WHITE MALE AGENT TALKING TO HIM THAT WAY WOULD BE OKAY?

reply

I dont presume the term "black" was the problem with this scene. The point simply was that Bond isnt there for wimping. But it seems like the color of the skin is the main point for you. Are you a racist?

reply

I DIDNT SPECIFICALLY POINT OUR THE AGENT WAS BLACK AND FEMALE...THATS SOMEONE ELSES PROBLEM.
