The Year Reheated

In which we marvel at the mental contortions of our self-imagined betters…

Woke theatre criticism and its complications were topics in July, as two Toronto Star reviewers, Aisling Murphy and Karen Fricker, applauded each other, and thereby themselves, for seeing an indigenous play and submitting to strict conditions on what they may subsequently write about it. Indigenous theatre, we discovered, requires approval that is both pre-emptive and unanimous, and its writers, actors and directors must be exempt from unflattering feedback, i.e., reviews of a kind that paying customers might have found useful, had they been available. Untroubled by irony, the critics, or rather non-critics, then bemoaned the ongoing, quite rapid decline of their profession and of the wider newsprint media.

Cultivated incompetence was also championed by the Oregon Health Authority, on grounds that “urgency is a white supremacist value.” Whereas, in matters of health, tardiness and lack of forethought are apparently aspirational, a woke ideal.

We also noted the scrupulously intersectional priorities of Canadian women’s shelters, where a deranged dysmorphic man roaming the halls wearing only a bra and brandishing his genitals, along with several stolen kitchen knives, was deemed of much less importance than the fact that a female resident had dared to “misgender” him.

Oh there’s more. Lots more.

  1. Hacks who demand no criticism of their codswallop can only exist because of fawning drips who fashion themselves as critics who believe in popular myths of “progressivism”.

    1. Job interview,

  2. Has anyone considered when our Gov, went from deliriously incompetant to frightfully malevolant?.. Is there a meeting tucked away in there somewhere?.. Where the WEF said “Now Justin do it now?”.. Would be difficult but comforting to know if this happened.

    1. Given that Stephen Harper is a member of the committee of 300 which is an advisory board to the wef, I would say that this was starting to get underway during the later part of the Harper administration. This is why the 2015 election was a hand off. Might as have thje turdhole as the front man stooge as the wef was now our new one world government.

  3. nothing is ever as it seems. The constant babble that we are a part of obscures the truth of damn near any matter. Millions knew the truth about the “covid” fraud yet the insanity could not be stopped. I have seen little to no improvement in the intellectual ability of my fellow citizens. I am not sure if I will spend any more time babbling about it as I have accomplished nothing, nothing, regarding the fraud of “covid”, the evil of the government, or getting one single person to see the idiocy that surrounds them.
