Indeed awareness can’t smuggle anything which is why the sentence is constructed as it is above…
But awareness in itself doesn’t add any value, especially in its present form. We see this in multiple examples currently*:
Protester: “Ban him, he is a racist”
Reporter: “What did he do that was racist?”
Protestor: :You don’t know what a racist is?"
It may make people feel better about themselves, perhaps even a little moist, but making claims without evidence or justification is just simply that, making an unsubstantiated claim. Whilst this continues, busloads of marxist ideology gets shipped in underneath.
So, no, i am just as concerned about the alleged awareness as I am the outcome…
I wouldn’t say that is an example of awareness, it’s just name calling. I agree it is prevelant now, the transgender women in sport debate is a good example of that. But I think that is a an example of lack of awareness, shouting transphobe and racist to someone who is neither is just name calliing as their opinions are based on emotion rather than anything objective.
No, you’re just trying to undermine the awareness to suit your own concerns with some people who have that awareness. The awareness and the behaviours, they’re not the same thing.
You can legitamtely criticise the behaviours without criticising the awareness. I can’t see any legitimate criticism of the awareness, but I’m open minded to counter arguments.
There’s little evidence of this, lots of people have been prosecuted for twitter comments, and all of them were found under their own name, not even a pseudonym that they had to track down via IP addresses etc.
Shouting out ‘racist’ whenever suits the caller does not mean that racism exists in that instance. That is a legitimate criticism of the awareness and we are aware of their awareness by their behaviour - or those who are willing to see. For the call to have value, it has to be valid and just.
Certainly racism exists, but it does not help the cause to cry wolf, not least because the more noise, the harder it is to spot and deal with the real concerns.
Trolling is so widespread - even on Discogs people post inappropriate and offensive slurs on legitimate complaints. These people don’t contribute much to the sites, but are on it frequently just name calling - they’re idiots. Keyboard warriors.
People seem to enjoy belittling others - it’s playground bullying. It’s pathetic. But even high profile celebs fall prey to this and boy is that unsavoury
Just think it’s symptomatic of this age - instant gratification, junk food, quick everything. It’s all un nutritious bollocks
