A is for Activist

We do like to wander round the charity shops in town on a Saturday afternoon, after grabbing a bit of breakfast. There's worst ways to spend your Saturday morning. It's certainly more pleasant that fitting a new letterbox, which I had to do in the afternoon, and was a right ballache

 

I managed to find a couple of good books, but I also found something I didn't expect

 

You know when you hear about a moral panic doing the rounds on Twitter or something, and you think, it can't be that bad?

 

A popular one is how the right wing nazis want to get books banned. The truth behind it is, some people only want the gay and trans porn written for children, to be banned from schools

Well what I found today wasn't quite as bad as that filth, but it's on a par

 

At first I thought it was just a pisstake, but it's not. It's an actual book, written to teach young children the alphabet, in a full on woke, inclusive, diverse, anti-capitalist style

In other words it's pure brainwashing propaganda for toddlers

 

A is for Activist. Advocate. Abolishonist. Ally. Actively answering a call to action. Are you an activist?

And just look at the picture

 

When I was young enough to be reading these books, A was for Apple. I bet it was for you too.

 

The author? Innosanto Nagara. No, I've no idea either, but it does sound about right

 

And on the back cover, it's endorsed by some really famous and respectable people:

 

"Full of wit, beauty and fun. We can think of no better way to learn the alphabet" Naomi Klein and Avi Lewis, Author of The Shock Doctrine / Filmmaker

Well I can think of a better way to learn the alphabet. The way we used to before woke started going for the children

 

"We need books for children that use words like Justice, Ally, Freedom and advocate" Rona Renner, Parent Educator. Host of childhood matters radio show

No. We really don't

 

Maybe I'll share some more letters with you in a later blog post. Try to guess what T is for... 

Really, really far right indeed

I don't tend to take much stock of what happens on Facebook; it's good for doomscrolling funny cat pictures and cartoons when you're watching something on the telly that's a bit of a slow burner, or waiting for the Mrs to finish the tea

 

Me being me though, I do tend to get a lot of political stuff popping up, and for the past two nights there's been a lot about Reform and their many defections

 

The comments on Facebook surprise me, because you don't tend to pick what pops up, you get people from all walks of life. Reading all the guff about Reform shows you just how many people are out there who still fully support the Labour party and the general mess they're making

 

And they all use the same terms when talking about Reform - Far Right

 

I've never seen anything about Reform that suggests they are Far Right, in the correct sense of the words, but Far Right no longer means Far Right, when uttered by left wing, hard of thinking morons, it just means slighty left of wherever they are on the spectrum, usually somewhere around Stalin and Marx

 

Far Right really only refers to normal folk who have jobs, families, cats, and are opposed to extortionate taxes, unchecked illegal immigration, crime and two tier policing, to name a few 

 

The words have so lost their meaning that the left really need to come up with some other description for us

 

I have heard Ultra Far Right used on occasion, but it didn't really seem to take off. I could suggest maybe Extremely Far Right. Or Really Very Far Right. Or maybe Really Really Extremely Far Right Indeed

 

I mean, they do have form. They did it with Global Warming when that got tired. We've had Climate Change, Climate Emergencey, Climate Catastrophe, Global Heating, Global Boiling and It's A Dry Heat That Warms The Globe

 

If they want to keep insulting the decent folk by comparing us to the Nazis, I think they really need to step up their game

 

Actually Really Really Very Positively Unquestionably Far Right  Indeed?

I posted my poop

I got a thing through the post this weekend from the NHS. They want me to send in a poop sample so they can test me for bowel cancer

I assume now I've turned fifty, I'll likely get frequent requests for bodily samples from the NHS, for various reasons

 

Oh well, I'm not one to turn down a health check. I may be fit and healthy, but I am creeping up in years, so what the hell

So this morning I pooped on a stick and bunged it in the post

 

All the while, I couldn't help thinking about 'Dr' Gillian McKeith. Remember her? The woman who used to analyise peoples poop on the telly, and use it to see how healthy they were, or were not? 

 

I remember a story, true or not, about her home address being released on the internet and loads of people sending her poo through the post, just for shits and giggles (Pun intended)

 

So that's my morning. How've you been? 

Happy New Year Everyone!
