Re: Jokes Thread
Nothing to do with "wokery" - people have different senses of humour, and find different things funny/unfunny.
Nice try, though...

Of course people who have a different sense of humour will not find it funny. That's no excuse to call others out for it, or try to ban such humour, which is what wokes do.

I agree, as long as they don’t try to shut up the people who disagree with them. That’s what I’m objecting to.

Do you mean by calling them "traitors" and "the enemy", and intimating they would be Quislings if ever there was a future conflict?

That's bound to be the reaction from many people when they have to put up with these never-ending excuses (from the usual crowd) for another country or bloc of countries that are trying to ruin our economy. From the very same people who tried to undermine the clear vote of the British people in a referendum.

A small hypocritical* vituperative minority are not " many people", no matter how you try to spin it.
*you don't seem to get the irony of you calling people traitors because they disagree with certain Government policies, when you have disagreed vehemently with the Governments COVID policies.

Covid isn’t another country, Hugh.
I don’t get your minority comment. Most people voted for Brexit and still support it. Even a good number of remainers now accept the position, and some of them are critical of those who simply do not accept the democratic decision of this country.
The minority are the ‘remoaners’, who just cannot stop whingeing.
Anyway, I’m not sure that this is something to laugh about, so this is on the wrong thread.
So, this Brexiteer, Remainer and Remoaners walk into a bar……
Nah, nothing funny comes out!

Oh, God, don’t say ‘black’! Some white workers might get offended.

Some may be offended by your taking the Lord's name in vain. Different strokes.

Conflation again…
A majority of those who voted voted for Brexit, and I accept the outcome - however, a small vituperative minority (including yourself) of this group decry others who disagree with aspects of the policies since enacted as "traitors" and "the enemy".
Or to put it simply - not everyone who voted for Brexit thinks of those who criticise Government policy as traitors, no matter how you try to spin it as so…
Hope this helps…

They side with the EU every time, Hugh, no matter what. Clearly they want this country to fail - hence the response.
