When I finished my last programme I was talking about one of the great turning points in the triumph of woke ideas. The New York Times had turned almost its entire focus to an online presence. It had gotten rid of a lot of its older experienced, but non tech savvy/non-woke journalists and focussed on young people, some of them journalists, and some not, telling them to build their presence as influencers on social media.
And what happened out of these major changes was that the management and other senior journalists and staff now found that the usual hierarchical tables had been turned on them. Now they had to do what the new woke folk wanted, what they demanded. Didn’t see that coming did they! And apart from Donald Trump what was the issue that really ground the gears of the new woke folk? It was slavery which ties in nicely with racism – well as they see and understand it.
As the woke journalist told the executive editor of the New York Times, Dean Baquet about leaving the word “Racist” out of the headline for an article on Donald Trump:
I just feel like racism is in everything. It should be considered in our science reporting, in our culture reporting, in our national reporting.
So racism was in everything and slavery was one of the worst signs of this racism. Well that’s what the woke folk say.
But maybe I’m going too fast and too far for you. Maybe you’re surprised to hear that Trump was against slavery – go figure. That might be surprising for some people and I’ll tell you why they’d be surprised.
