Society ceased making sense to me a couple of years ago. in an attempt to get to the bottom of things i have spent hundreds of hours on literary theory, from Homer to Derrida. The post modern literary theorists are fairly divorced from reality. There are some truths in Foucault but there's a lot of non truths. Derrida is just totally off the wall. If these ideas stayed in the field of literary theory things would be fine..but someone decided the power of language was more important than logic. Logic is the only tool you have at your disposal. ~ are there students at Oxford University that don't beleive in logic? And postmodernists refuse to define anything. If you can't ask questions about something it is probably a lie.

I have a good definition of being "Woke" - it's to believe that somehow, you have a better moral ground, more care, more logic, more interest or a better perception of the world around you than anyone else. That is the problem, together with all the second hand, criminal ideology you sustain. not only you stand for such criminal totalitarian views, but you also dare to think that in any way you are right or know better than everyone else in the planet. Your views and approach are almost as criminal as the regimes on which side you stand for. You are not there yet, but give you time and space, you will surely get there. And you will use any sort of violence to get there. Sounds familiar? because it is. There. Any questions?

The name of a movement is its core, it's foundations, and the name of the woke movement is one of the most pompous, self- important descriptions i've ever heard. Think about it... If one is woke, and others are not, that implies one is awake and others are asleep. It's so insulting to anyone who disagrees with you! It's like if I started a political party and called it "the geniuses"... How arrogant is that? If at the end of a debate, we agreed to disagree, I would end-up saying "well, of course we're going to disagree on some things, that's why i'm a Genius, and you're not! Not everyone can be Geniuses... And you're just one of those people who will simply never be a Genius." What I just said there is completely polite, technically-speaking, but you still want to punch me in the face! Just because of what i chose to call my movement!

Extraordinary that in a supposedly advanced society such as the Oxford Union, in 2022 (with MeToo and the many complaints against the male human being's toxic masculinity and his 'male gaze'), while the men are still modestly dressed, with only hands and face exposed, the women still opt for the naked look, exposing bare arms/shoulders/more than just the cleavage, and even legs/thighs.

She's so strongly against performative activism that she didn't "perform" her speech, but rather read it. Even if I'm against "wokism" (which I am) it's still important to present a case as a persuasive presenter, not a stumbling and hesitant reader. Egads.

It's a shame students are not encouraged to present without reading their script. Use prompters yes, but read less.

Whatever the result, the principal speaker for the motion was poor. Surely, to engage the audience & attract support the speaker should be creating a superb, hard-hitting performance? She didn’t.

Good info really poorly presented. 👎👎. How did she get into Oxford? If a smarter speaker had this slot…

Wow it's really boring to listen to someone just read a piece of paper. Why is she up there if she doesn't know her stuff enough to speak off the top of her head? She's bursting out of that dress by the way.

Wow her terrible speaking ability really undermined some really good points. She should try beta blockers next time she needs to do this
