This time of year really seems to highlight the constant demand for changes, so that anything can’t be taken out of context & twisted, thus avoiding any possible offences.

It got me thinking... how many Films, TV programmes, books & music etc would have to be altered or destroyed before this madness is over.

Eg:

The classic Christmas song by Roy Wood & Wizard has that line.. “ let the snowman bring the snow”

Frozen: “ Do you want to build a snowman”...
(or the book & film of ‘The Snowman’ ) scratchchin

And many, many more. banghead

Written without a hint of self awareness or irony?

Which one are you? A Karen or a Snowflake? Is it the time of year you’re unhappy with and would like to ban? Or just whinge about? Or change?

Or is it time to whinge about / ban / change people who disagree with you? Or just whinge about / ban / change anything they get that you don’t like?

Or is it time to whinge about / ban / change the whole “madness” that you’ve decided it is, Karen?

(I don’t lose sleep over it... but I have rephrased the header)

It must be a nightmare for all those dictionary publishers though.

Watch The Handmaid’s Tale. I’m sure there’s plenty in there for you to agree with. Then come back and tell everyone how you wished you were watching a documentary, although it seemed a bit biased towards the leftie, freedom fighters.

Is it just me who doesn't understand any of this?

What are you actually saying needs to get changed in Frozen, or any of your other examples, and is it to appease the Karens or the snowflakes?

Or just being a middle aged white man! I’m fed up of apologising for being a white man. I had to apologise 3 times yesterday and 6 last Wednesday.

Worlds gone bleeding’ mad.

This is nothing new, fairytales have been changed considerably over the centuries as society has developed.

We will end up as a member of an EUSSR or similar with a bunch of socialist extremist firebtrands (Boyle, Brand, Kumar, Sturgeon, Starmer, Miliband, bLIAR and other such hateful entities) deciding what we're allowed to think and say... We're well on the way already... 1984 in 2024!!!

This is very early in the day to be on the sauce. Even if it is Christmas Eve.

Double irony and lack of self awareness.

Quite right too, joining this thread and flashing all your privilege about. Shocking.
