A manual on how to deal with woke tactics in organisations has recently been published. James Lindsay helped it’s publication and highly recommends the work of the author who advises on how to deal with wokeness in organisations. It’s called “Counter Wokecraft” by Charles Pincourt.
I find that people that don’t understand science, mistrust it and ridicule it. Journalists generally sound smart at talking and only select easily understood facts by their readership to prove any point they are making. Most of the ones I ever heard giving interviews generally are only of average intelligence. Remember newspapers have to make money, telling the truth is not a primary consideration. I don’t think I’ve read a newspaper since I left home 40 years ago, better to read a book with references in.
I must admit 'wokeism' doesn't seem to be as talked about in France (where I live) as it is in the US or the UK. When I discovered this 'ism' I first thought isn't this the modern-day equivalent of 'Enlightenment'? Didn't we all 'woke' in the 17th and 18th centuries? No, not sufficiently. I don't adhere to any specific wing of politics and am non-religious but do adhere to my own reasoning and believe I know how to differentiate between what's wrong and right. To be nonracial seems evident to me. The BLM movement, to my thinking, is a tautology, or should be. Isn't it evident that ALM (All Lives Matter)? It's a sad state of affairs to get to this point in social ideology, centuries after the era of Enlightenment. Does it mean that, as a human race, we just don't 'get it' ? We haven't learned much? I suppose it does, yes, and there are too many more or less contemporary examples of why we are still at this point and how we got here. A French student, Pierre Valentin, writes that wokeism is 'an opium of intellectuals'. We need to teach philosophy in schools, open up the arena for debate, encourage reasoning and stop the tendancy for blind adherence to groups, political parties and 'isms'.
@@ajs41 funny that I see flat earthers, anti-vaxxers and right wing political conspiracy theorists use this moniker 'woke', 'they are woke' just as much as those on the left and they both seem to share the same dogmatic approach to their belief systems. This isn't exclusive to one particular ideology and is used by both sides of the argument to denigrate the other. It's a complete oxymoron regardless of persuasion or opinion. The sooner we all come to the realisation there is no right or wrong and this is all paradoxical, the sooner we can move on together.
Knowing the difference between right and wrong is tantamount to acknowledging that there is a God, because we are born with that knowledge in our hearts by our Creator, God, who has fashioned mankind to be this way.
@@ryeguy7941 Yes , I get that , although some values in both movements are replicated. I was referring to the etymological similarity. I admit, I know very little about wokeism, which is why I watched this clip.
well, at 46:00, Mao actually did mean 'let a thousand flowers bloom', because the troublemakers would automatically be marked for having their heads harvested from their bodies.
despicable - the human animal is not a pretty sight, spoiling all beauty, ignorant, brutal, self obsessed, wokeism has been/is a highjacked form of biowarfare, d'oh!
My father and his generation freed Germany and much of Europe from a political system where there was no freedom of speech, freedom to protest, freedom to travel , freedom to worship, freedom to have a job regardless of political beliefs. So it can be done and the worst oppressors in such societies tend to have a violent end but unfortunately take a large number of innocents with them.
I always understood it as 'Men and Women are Equal before the Law'. Not that men and women were the same in every other sense. Certainly back in the '70's there was a lot of discussion on the physical differences between men and women because women needed refuges etc. Great vlog.
What culture? White defence leagues, Section 28 or treating women like house slaves? What is the culture, i need to know because thats what a lot of us youths can see and its distressing.
The thing is that we were all colonised by the Romans and then the Christians but we all at some point had a culture before we were colonised and what if we try to fully decolonise by trying to understand what that culture was that preceded our own colonisation?
I cancelled my National Trust Membership as did my wider family because we objected of their new way of going etc, they are devaluing our history and cultural and historical artifacts, statues, history of buildings etc. This woke society has just lead to a massive increase in young people's mental health disorders which in turn is paralyzing their view of the world and their functions in society,, many can't cope in wider society because not everyone thinks the same as them and will have opposing views but the young people have Lost the knowledge and experience of debate , they appear to turn to name calling or more extreme acts
Spellbound for an hour. I wish I had Moore's knowledge and eloquence. He says what we think and suspect but cannot elucidate or recall all or any examples.
I am proud of our colonial heritage, it has hugely benefitted so many countries around the world with investment, inventions civilisation and the myriad of people who took their skills there. Bad things went on too but these were vastly outweighed by the positive achievements.
I agree, it was interesting the other day to see the Kenyan ambassador to the UN speak about colonial issues as he saw them in a tangent with the current Ukraine troubles. He spoke very fluently in a smart suit and tie about the bad colonial problems, yet seems to forget that without them he would still he scratching grubs from termite nests. Like all of these people they never seem to ask themselves if they would have enjoyed eeking out a survival looking for grubs over representating his country at the UN.

I quit the National Trust joint membership of 12 years because of their stand...!!
Sorry to be naive,what is their stance? Do they support BLM?
Woke is the worst symptom of the decline and eventual decline of the West.
Good to hear Mr Moore getting deep there. His usual appearance s on things like Question Time or Andrew Marr never give enough time.
This is a fantastic interview!
I feel like my brain cells have had a bloody good work out - sublime.
The BNP and National Front predicted all of this.
I must admit 'wokeism' doesn't seem to be as talked about in France (where I live) as it is in the US or the UK. When I discovered this 'ism' I first thought isn't this the modern-day equivalent of 'Enlightenment'? Didn't we all 'woke' in the 17th and 18th centuries? No, not sufficiently.
I don't adhere to any specific wing of politics and am non-religious but do adhere to my own reasoning and believe I know how to differentiate between what's wrong and right. To be nonracial seems evident to me.
The BLM movement, to my thinking, is a tautology, or should be. Isn't it evident that ALM (All Lives Matter)? It's a sad state of affairs to get to this point in social ideology, centuries after the era of Enlightenment. Does it mean that, as a human race, we just don't 'get it' ? We haven't learned much? I suppose it does, yes, and there are too many more or less contemporary examples of why we are still at this point and how we got here.
A French student, Pierre Valentin, writes that wokeism is 'an opium of intellectuals'.
We need to teach philosophy in schools, open up the arena for debate, encourage reasoning and stop the tendancy for blind adherence to groups, political parties and 'isms'.
Wokeism is left-wing authoritarianism.
@@ajs41 funny that I see flat earthers, anti-vaxxers and right wing political conspiracy theorists use this moniker 'woke', 'they are woke' just as much as those on the left and they both seem to share the same dogmatic approach to their belief systems. This isn't exclusive to one particular ideology and is used by both sides of the argument to denigrate the other. It's a complete oxymoron regardless of persuasion or opinion.
The sooner we all come to the realisation there is no right or wrong and this is all paradoxical, the sooner we can move on together.
Wokeism is completely counter to the enlightenment.
Knowing the difference between right and wrong is tantamount to acknowledging that there is a God, because we are born with that knowledge in our hearts by our Creator, God, who has fashioned mankind to be this way.
@@ryeguy7941 Yes , I get that , although some values in both movements are replicated. I was referring to the etymological similarity. I admit, I know very little about wokeism, which is why I watched this clip.
MORE DISCUSSIONS LIKE THIS ONE!
Speaking of bias-there is institutional bias to insure blockage of talks like this.
Oh good! Thought I was going slowly mad until I watched this interview.
Some great perspectives 👌 really enjoyed this
“This is how hardline ideology works; it plays on the decent feelings of a great many people who don’t understand it”
Charles Moore is, I reluctantly concede, correct but only up to a point. I would love to see the woke brigade
Try to coerce someone like John Lydon.
The woke brigade would need to have a rational discussion to do so.
John lydon is a life long leftist.
@@lrwguitar So? Thomas Howard is right - Lydon has taken on left, right and laughed at them.
Guffaw!
He's not woke he's against immigration and likes real butter
The head of the British Museum should be british, not german.
well, at 46:00, Mao actually did mean 'let a thousand flowers bloom', because the troublemakers would automatically be marked for having their heads harvested from their bodies.
despicable - the human animal is not a pretty sight, spoiling all beauty, ignorant, brutal, self obsessed, wokeism has been/is a highjacked form of biowarfare, d'oh!
My father and his generation freed Germany and much of Europe from a political system where there was no freedom of speech, freedom to protest, freedom to travel , freedom to worship, freedom to have a job regardless of political beliefs. So it can be done and the worst oppressors in such societies tend to have a violent end but unfortunately take a large number of innocents with them.
Such a brilliant man
I always understood it as 'Men and Women are Equal before the Law'. Not that men and women were the same in every other sense. Certainly back in the '70's there was a lot of discussion on the physical differences between men and women because women needed refuges etc. Great vlog.
Those who are awake can’t be woke.
Charles Moore should be our Prime Minister.
Traditionalists of course accept change but as long as it respects the culture that came before.
What culture? White defence leagues, Section 28 or treating women like house slaves? What is the culture, i need to know because thats what a lot of us youths can see and its distressing.
@@bwebb90 a very perceptive comment.
Charles Moore is a truly brilliant man. I love his Thatcher biography and his Telegraph and Spectator columns. This video shows how truly wise he is.
The thing is that we were all colonised by the Romans and then the Christians but we all at some point had a culture before we were colonised and what if we try to fully decolonise by trying to understand what that culture was that preceded our own colonisation?
They call it "neo lithic"
I hope Lord Moore is right that we have now peaked
people need to stand up to it with reasoned arguments and stop feeling guilty (woke)... it wont go away until they do...
i dont feel guilty and know no one who does.
Wokeism is an exclusionist philosophy. They will continue to name and shame people until no one is left to support it. Then it will be dead.
I cancelled my National Trust Membership as did my wider family because we objected of their new way of going etc, they are devaluing our history and cultural and historical artifacts, statues, history of buildings etc. This woke society has just lead to a massive increase in young people's mental health disorders which in turn is paralyzing their view of the world and their functions in society,, many can't cope in wider society because not everyone thinks the same as them and will have opposing views but the young people have Lost the knowledge and experience of debate , they appear to turn to name calling or more extreme acts
Spellbound for an hour. I wish I had Moore's knowledge and eloquence. He says what we think and suspect but cannot elucidate or recall all or any examples.
No wonder our detractors would rather the over 65’s were silenced.....Not that all of such vintage talk such sense.
Pure Excellence!!!! ✌️💪
"What do people worship now?" - I'd say money and possessions.
Very impressive interview. I am now a confirmed follower.
Boris' silence is deafening.
Please go on Farage at GB news.
Except for his opinion on the best president America ever had president Trump, I am in broad agreement with Charles Moore.
Trump CRAP!!
@@robertgalloway3771 ....And what about Biden? Is he a hero of yours?
Exactly, Trump is brilliant
@@mfecanegukurahundi24 Trump is a criminal who is finally on the cusp of facing justice.
@@edin-burgher2881 What crime did he commit?
I am proud of our colonial heritage, it has hugely benefitted so many countries around the world with investment, inventions civilisation and the myriad of people who took their skills there. Bad things went on too but these were vastly outweighed by the positive achievements.
I agree, it was interesting the other day to see the Kenyan ambassador to the UN speak about colonial issues as he saw them in a tangent with the current Ukraine troubles. He spoke very fluently in a smart suit and tie about the bad colonial problems, yet seems to forget that without them he would still he scratching grubs from termite nests. Like all of these people they never seem to ask themselves if they would have enjoyed eeking out a survival looking for grubs over representating his country at the UN.
