Yes - that tide has definitely turned.... the Old Brigade - the New Neo-cons who cling desperately to the life rafts of Wokes Past, are all now on the wrong side of history and should do better...... keep up in class....
Woke was a good idea when it started - open your eyes, it said - fine, says I - then it morphed into an excuse for every kind of violent and criminal and destructive behaviour and attitude in history ... the New Nazism... and now it is dying unmourned by the many who are happy to return to the days of just getting along .... some made their fortunes out of it though - there's a sucker and a grifter born every minute .................. And it was only last year I posted photos of those battleships shelling the beaches on D-Day against Woke.... now we're expecting unconditional surrender on all fronts..... and who wants to be the last to die in a lost cause - a mistake? |

Guy Who Said Facebook Was Not Suppressing Free Speech Announces Facebook Will Stop Suppressing Free Speech
"This is a major shift toward no longer doing the things I said we weren't doing," Zuckerberg said in the statement. "While we never suppressed free speech and expression at Facebook, we felt that the election of 2024 was a cultural pivot point that made it clear that we had to stop suppressing free speech and expression. Even though we absolutely never did it, starting now, we're going to stop doing it." "Even though it wasn't ever happening, we're not going to do it anymore," Zuckerberg emphasized. "We owe it to our users who were never censored to stop censoring them." Zuckerberg stressed that these changes would be implemented over time, with the goal of putting an end to the policies that he said were never in place. At publishing time, Zuckerberg's video promoting free speech and limiting censorship on Facebook had been censored by Facebook. |

JUST IN! Overjoyed Trump Runs Out To Greet Prodigal Son Mark Zuckerberg PALM BEACH, FL — It was a joyous day at Mar-a-Lago today, as the entire staff of the famed resort property exploded into celebration and party preparation when an overjoyed President-elect Donald Trump ran out to greet his prodigal son, Mark Zuckerberg. Sources said the Meta founder had run off years ago after asking Trump for his portion of the inheritance, used it to start Facebook, purchase Instagram and WhatsApp, interfere in U.S. elections, acquire a sprawling compound in Hawaii, and squander the rest on wild living. Today, he returned home, prepared to beg Trump's forgiveness but relieved to be welcomed with open arms. "Mr. President-elect, I have sinned against MAGA and against you," Zuckerberg was heard saying after Trump ran to embrace him. "I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants." Before Zuckerberg had even finished speaking, witnesses said, Trump had called Mar-a-Lago staff. "Clothe Mark Zuckerberg in a MAGA baseball cap and gold Trump sneakers, provide him with a full set of Trump NFT trading cards, and prepare a vast McDonald's feast to celebrate," he said. "For this, my son was a lib, but is based again; he was lost, and is found." One Mar-a-Lago insider revealed Elon Musk came out of the resort to see what the commotion was about and became angry upon learning that Trump had welcomed Zuckerberg back. "Look, during this election, I have served you," Musk complained, "yet you never gave me a few Big Macs to celebrate with Vivek. But when this Zuck came, you hold a feast." At publishing time, Trump had allegedly told Musk that all that he had belonged to him, which would soon potentially include Greenland. |

Exactly - except the mainstream media committed ideological suicide. They fired everyone from Tucker to Steyn, banned Trump on Twatter, censored him on Farcebook. The police came around if you posted something online but the media and the political class covered up systematic gang rapes of white girls by Muslims for decades. Anyone who is STILL getting his bearings from the ABC and the Granuiad is a zombie. Hollowed out late 20th century thinking. |

As if Joe Rogan and the mad Jordan Peterson had anything to do with Trudeau's rapid decline in popularity. That is down to Canadian popular fury over Trudeau's migration and economic mismanagement. Peterson's religio-psychotic rants against Trudeau did more for Trudeau than against him. |

Aww, please! How hard is it to source Canadian dissatisfaction with Trudeau's economic performance and his mishandling of the Canadian (over-generous) immigration process that has triggered housing crises across Canada? As for Peterson, source the opinions of nearly all of his colleagues at the University of Toronto... or ask Canadians what they think of their fellow countryman wandering the world ranting like a modern-day schizophrenic Ezekiel. Where's your data that Rogan and Peterson brought Trudeau down? You don't think that Canadians would want Trudeau gone if they were impressed with his performance, do you? ... Or do you? Canadians see Peterson as a Yankist arselicker... the worst kind of Canadian in their collective opinion. |

Title: Re: Zuckerberg sees the Light! Post by aquascoot on Jan 9th, 2025 at 2:25pm
a bit of reading
Canada is known for its moderate liberal-left stance, lacking a deeply entrenched far-right movement or extreme right-wing media—a phenomenon termed Canadian exceptionalism (Peker and Winter 2024). Despite this, Canada has produced a globally famous conservative intellectual, Jordan Peterson, and Canada was the site of the 2022 Freedom Convoy where truckers shut down the Canadian capital, Ottawa, for days in protest against vaccine mandates. This has led some to view Canada as a breeding ground for right-wing extremism even though the far right remains marginal in Canada compared to Germany, France, or the USA. This paper argues that the paradox of Canada producing Peterson and a massive populist revolt can be explained by exploring the prominence of Canadian conservative and far-right internet personalities, such as Ezra Levant and Lauren Southern. This Canadian paradox flows from the weakness of right-wing parties and media, coupled with Trudeau’s elitist liberalism administration and a progressive-leaning media. These conditions and the lack of open debate they create, assisted by the international reach of the English language, facilitated the remarkable rise of multiple Canadian figures in global right-wing discourse online, despite the relative weakness of the organized political right. Peterson’s fame highlights how elitist liberalism can produce an internet-based reaction against itself. The internet has functioned as a place of refuge for Canadian conservatives deemed to be beyond the pale of the domestic political culture. Whether or not these figures can leverage their global internet popularity to spark a populist movement within the mainstream Canadian political sphere is explored in this article. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/385630941_The_Great_Canadian_Paradox_Jordan_Peterson_Right-Wing_Canadian_Internet_Personalities_and_the_End_of_Canadian_Exceptionalism |

I can't believe you post to a politics forum. Do you have any notion of the traditional Canadians' one-way rivalry with Americans? It's like Kiwis in NZ over anything Australian... or the British and the French. Go to NZ and speak in your Australian accent about how amazing Australia is... see if your car tyres have any air in them when you try to leave! |

Also, have you listened to the way Peterson raves about Rogan? Bloody hell! I'm wondering if he's ramping up to drop his tweeds and crank one out halfway through, it's that over-the-top fawning. |

meh
you think you are smarter then jordie, rogan and trump. yet you post on an obscure forum read by a handful those 3 have a worldwide audience could you go and get yourself a world wide audience , meister? you could but it would be a hell of a lot of work but you can trick your brain into believing you have already achieved what they achieved by crapping on them on the interweb cool but a newsflash for you such behaviour is a massive "cope" its no different to the fat guy on the couch screaming at the TV about how some football star is a piece of poo because he missed the goal coping mentality its very very low status ;) |

Interesting But I do not think, and do not accept, that Petersen, Levant, Southern are "far right". Even the label "populist" is nonsense. Elections ARE about the popularity of policies and personalities. |

indeed frank
its coming from a bit of a left wing 'take' but it does recognise that with a weak media and leftie intellectual prime minister, the place of the internet podcasters and youtubers is the birthing ground for opposition to the failures of the left |

i'm not the one professing to be a more important intellectual then peterson. i admire the guy and think you can learn a lot from him i could NEVER write a book like 12 rules is that being "on all 4's"? you on the other hand smugly dismiss him as a loser. if so, justify your position provide a link to your best selling books and i'll have a read and see if you are worth learning from all one seems able to learn from you is that you consider yourself very smart ::) ::) |

Did I (profess to be a more important intellectual than Peterson)? That says more about you than me. Peterson, himself, has been the cause of many of the problems he faced in Canada. Outside of what he's famous for, he's infamous for his public, crazed, infantile, enraged outbursts against anyone who criticises or critiques his work - something he, as a clinical psychologist, would recognise as symptoms of a personality disorder were he to identify it in others. You'd know all that if your head wasn't stuck up his arse further than your ears. Listen to Alex O'Connor's critique of Peterson, or Richard Dawkins' for example. |

The Left and the bien pensant like Meister Icky want conformity. They want comfort, predictability, a collective nod. The vibe shift against that is everywhere. There has been push- back in many countries and at many levels - tea party, Wilders, Boris and Abbott in opposition, Orban and Brexiters and others who know what living in a Soviet/EU mindset is like - but it is now coming together. Trump is a catalist. Petersen, Steyn, Rogan [Your happy un-woke warrior here] are not 'respectable' like the bien pensant conformist like their betters. But they are not to be brushed aside any more. Intellectual conformism is out, finally. |
Title: Re: Gates also sees the Light! Post by Frank on Jan 19th, 2025 at 6:28pm
Just days from Donald Trump's inauguration, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates revealed he had a three-hour dinner with the President-elect, calling the meeting "intriguing" and "impressive."
"I had a chance, about two weeks ago, to go have a long and actually quite intriguing dinner with him," Mr Gates told The Wall Street Journal. Their conversation, which he described as "wide-ranging," touched on various topics, including HIV, polio, and the COVID-19 pandemic. "I spoke a lot about HIV and that [The Gates] Foundation is literally working on a cure for that. We're at an early stage," he told WSJ's Editor-in-Chief Emma Tucker. The billionaire entrepreneur was particularly "impressed" by Trump's energy and willingness to drive innovation. "I felt like he was energised and looking forward to helping to drive innovation," Mr Gates said. "I was frankly impressed with how well he showed a lot of interest in the issues I brought up." |
Title: Re: Zuckerberg sees the Light! Post by Jasin on Jan 19th, 2025 at 6:39pm
When Gates had dinner with Biden. It was the complete opposite. Biden would fall asleep at fifteen minutes intervals for five minutes. Waking only to pick his nose, ask the waitress about her sex life and could he sniff her hair? He ordered only icecream and thought Gates was Musk and ended the night's dinner thinking he had just sat for the G7 Summit.
