About this episode
It reminds me a little of when Rose was talking about how popular Ferris Bueller was at school, “The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him.” Sometimes rattling off a list is an effective way to get peoples attention. The list included most all of the disaffected, restless malcontents populating Glenbrook North High School. While the group at Glenbrook North seemed mostly harmless, the group most of us are having to contend with today has a list that is much more diabolical.Tomas Pueyo calls them the climatists, the Covidians, the mass migrationists, the Ukrainists and the antiracists. You can add the fluid gender champions, privilege opponents and foes of toxic masculinity. To be truly woke, you must be all of the above. It must take a lot of time and effort to maintain such ideological purity…to keep up with the latest woke cause celebres. While most non-believers estimate they only make up about 28% of those who were polled, you’d never know it by their overblown presence and their almost hostile bid to control the cultural narrative. They are unrelenting in their pursuit and if you try to stop them, be prepared, they will try to come after you. If you pick a fight with any of them, it’s best if you work for yourself, have no friends or family and don’t put your money in a bank. While they are master bulliers, they have thin skin. They are like boxers with glass jaws, they can’t take a hit. When parents take on progressive school board members, security guards show up out of no where…they cannot handle dissent. When a onetime supporter has the temerity to question any portion of the woke narrative, the woke police and Twitter trolls make an instantaneous counter attack. They are a well trained, dogmatic army of ideological pit bulls.The latest culture contest involves the once kid-friendly Disney universe. Once the Florida legislature passed a bill limiting what teachers can openly discuss of alternative lifestyles to K-3 graders, Disney’s pro-trans work brigade went into action. Calling it the “Don’t Say Gay” Bill (of course, by now we all know there is no mention of gay in the bill), an apparently powerful legion of pro-groomer and LGBT++++++++ fanatics made it their mission to crush Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who signed the bill into law. They said it was cruel to limit discussions of sexual mutilation, pedophilia, gay sex and transgender transitioning to 6 and 7 year olds. Last week,
