Thank you Laurence, for an articulate and fearless voice in these mad times. Also, great fan of your acting work, I hope we can see you again on our screens when this madness has been revealed for the absolute craziness that it is.
Bravo Laurence Fox...you have a platform now to perform the most amazing part you will play for those who will listen and applaud you.. THANKYOU FOR BEING YOU..⭐
I have a question that's been bothering me ever since that first explosive BBC Question Time interview. The panel asked Laurence what he thinks about Megan and Harry. He answered. Lady in the audience didn't like his answer. She didn't agree with his answer. It's only THEN that she attacks him as a "white privileged male". My question is, if she feels that "white privileged males" have no right to weigh in on the Megan/Harry debate, then why didn't she stand up and object to him being asked his opinion BEFORE he gave it? Why didn't she stand up beforehand and announce to the panel, "By the way, if you're going to turn the discussion to Harry and Megan, please don't ask for the opinions of any white privileged males on the panel as their voices don't count"? Why wait until she knows what Laurence's response to the question will be? She waited until she heard his answer and THEN objected. Seems to me that if he had expressed absolute solidarity with Megan/Harry, she would not have been the LEAST bit bothered about his status as a "white privileged male". She would have kept quiet. She would have been happy. Strikes me as shockingly disingenuous.
That's the whole point: being disingenuous. And saying what you suggest she should have said would have been bad strategy for her, too frontal. It's much better to wait and THEN trap the speaker in a closed circle of guilt through the use of keywords such as "racist", "white", "male", "privilege", "systemic xyz" etc. Once these labels have been given, debate is over, the speaker is disqualified and morally excommunicated, and his speech becomes irrelevant by default, which is the point of the woke strategy.
@@Raph1805 just leave the studio if you have privilege of money/class, race/ethnicity, 'gender,' health/ability etc [keeping this one short haha] ... in fact close down the whole show no debate - perfect empty woke result?
Was rooting for him in the mayoral elections. He’s honest, courageous, articulate and reasonable. Despite the setback, I hope his political star will shine brightly and that he’ll keep up the good fight.
Thank you Laurence for speaking out against the insidious Cancel culture. I believe that the percentage of anti WOKEness is much higher than 50 per cent of the UK population. I live in Scotland
SO thrilled to see this being discussed from intelligent people from across the world. Thank you! I look forward to watching this entire series. I need to know what I can do for the cause. I'm trying to educate myself to the best of my ability so I can argue this intelligently. Florida here❤️🇱🇷 P.s. I 💕 our allies across the pond.
Good for you. Yes, I need to watch this series, through. Not being certain whether it is mentioned later in the series, but I'll point out that, just like BLM was introduced as an anti-racism movement (but turned out to be racist), ...the definition of anti-racism is the establishment of an anti-white apartheid state in NA and Europe.
As the cancel culture has developed, myself personally have spoke my mind more than ever. The more they try to silence people the worse it will get. I have my opinion but will listen to both sides and form my thoughts. I WILL NOT BE TOLD or BE SCARED TO SPEAK MY MIND or BELIEFS. And Lawrence I bow to your strength of character.
Yes!!!! Thank you! Somebody finally said it! This is a new religion. This is biblical. Before the second coming of Christ the world is united in a new religion. The theory is that it's not the Christian or Muslim religion and it can't be the Catholic religion for many reasons so a new religion has to be born prior to the second coming of Christ.
That and so called 'reality tv". They have both caused cultural regression. Left unchallenged these awful inventions will see neolithic man making a comeback.
Later......LEWIS. But yes a great actor and now, even more to be admired. Hope this helps the silenced majority to come together and regain their voice. I'd vote for him.
Never a truer word spoken than when Laurence said "It shouldn't take an actor to be saying these things" Damn right! that's what we pay our political leaders to do. It's high time our political leaders grew a backbone, took a stand and fought for the freedom of speech.
Brilliant interview! I am reminded of the German film, "Mephisto", " film based on the novel of the same title by Klaus Mann. Directed by István Szabó, produced by Manfred Durniok, with a screenplay written by Péter Dobai and Szabó, Mephisto follows a German stage actor who finds unexpected success and mixed blessings (think Nazi racism, and its brand of cancel culture of the time,. and its relentless, mandatory virtue signalling, within the acting guild of the time) in the popularity of his performance in a Faustian play as the Nazis take power in pre-WWII Germany." (From Wikipedia). Very appropriate that the Danube Institute is based in Budapest considering the authors pedigree. Nagyszerű! Keep up the good fight Mr. Fox!
Christianity makes forgiveness central, so it is no surprise that with the decline of Christianity in the West, the centrality of forgiveness is also in decline.
Alice, please don't be so hypocritical. Forgiveness is what Jesus does for followers. I have rarely seen forgiveness from Christians to people who disagree with their mythology. How much forgiveness have Christians given gay men and women? The list of people who have been condemned by Christians is long.
I'm sorry. I work with people who don't care about your political leanings at all, thank goodness! Remember you are never alone, no matter how much it might feel like you are. If you feel gagged then chances are, others do too. Maybe reach out if you feel that vibe from a co worker- then get as many together as you can and try to change the tide. (This is James Lyndsay's advice, not mine, but it sounds reasonable 🙂)
You would too if Fox was prime minister: apparently you can't criticize Israel, free speech stops there. About the actress who left the union: it's entirely on her, she must have been a rabid Israel supporter. I can defend you as a Jew and at the same time criticize the state of Israel, but apparently this is a concept too hard to understand for some people.
@@souljastation5463 you miss the point entirely. As an individual I defend your right to your Satanic views. It is not for Equity to enter a political debate.
Children not being taught history? How could it be otherwise? Where would you find teachers insufficient numbers who knew history. They themselves weren't taught
Equity shouldn't be harassing members for their political views. Do they do an audit of all the political views of their members? And who are these actors denouncing each other?
I can assure you that the term "person of color" is not coming from those thus designated. These terms are forced on their victims, generally speaking. I am very interested in conservative thought, but how is it that 1. the people who are actually responsible for the mess we're in are never correctly identified and 2. people prevented from receiving proper schooling because their ignorance is useful and profitable are always looked at with derision? Also, what do peoples of Eastern Europe have to do with American mismanagement of their own affairs? Finally, how are we in a situation where we are looking to thespians for answers to our questions?
Wokery is thoroughly ludicrous. Your blunder: You fail to SATIRIZE all this bizarre piffle and the weaklings who embrace the balls-up in both error and misdeed.
Maybe so, but the repurcussions are real and dire. Hollowing out institututions is the strategy being used by these anti-racists (i.e., racists against white people). They've targetted the middle management positions, securing the authority to vet new hires, such that you can't even get through the interview process. And of course, if you're somehow in such an organization, then your only choice is to keep your head down.
Freedom of Speech should be guaranteed by the law without cost to the citizen..as there is really nothing to debate/consider..cut and dried.. in and out. "Inalienable rights" The citizens rights should extend to his her livelihood as well. Non discrimination.
I go to University and I speak up when I hear "woke" expressions. I speak up despite dirty looks. I am much older and know a great deal more than they do and am not afraid to say so.
Oh good for Lawrence, I live in Australia now, I used to be a lefty but now I’m a bloody Mutton/ /Karen, how on earth did we come to this???? All this labelling? All this skin colour emphasis? It’s not that long ago we were Cool Britannia, anyone remember that? God bless Laurence Fox, you’re a great actor and I would have voted for you, we’ve got our own set of probs in Australia, but please keep going all of you fighting from the 19th article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights! Bloody hell, freedom of expression works both ways 💕👍🇦🇺
Lorence is amazing and I will vote for him at the next election it's so brave of him to continue in whote he's doing and I really hope he continues to keep it up
Love his work as an actor. His character in the Sittaford House mystery stands out. He has more important work now - helping to save our western culture from these insane moronic woke lunatics. Best of British to you Laurence.
Is there a country anywhere that I can escape to? Moderately Christian, centre/centre right, conservative (with a small c), law abiding, family orientated, tolerant of all people, kind, charitable, reserved, level headed and hard working? If so, I'm going..
Yes, the parallels dawned on me last year when an Eastern European woman expressed her horror at pandemic measures. She would've been in her mid to late 20s when the wall came down.
I have listened to your account of cancellation, and agree with all you have said. In particular, I agree that a legal challenge is the best way to go. I am a lawyer and speak with some experience. You should take charge in particular of the issues that counsel put to the court, and that no bolt holes are left for the judge to take. Counsel and judges are all human, and if they can take and if they can do so and produce a respectable conclusion they’ll sometimes do so.
21:45 The American elites are fragile and neurotic, yet have utter confidence in their destiny as leaders. We are living in an era of a hostile elite. Where are the Sea Peoples when you need them?
I loved Laurence Fox's acting. Here is a question: How is it that Africa offered their citizens up to European slavers for 250 years without forming armies or launching a navy to prevent this?
Interesting to find out about Maureen Lipman and Equity. I was equally pissed off when our Fire Brigades Union announced their allegiance to the Palestine cause. I don't pay my subscription for them to align with anything outside of what directly influences our working conditions.
This is the most cogent discussion of cancel culture I have ever heard. About a decade ago I read The Red Flag: A History of Communism. At the very beginnning of the book the author states that, "Communism is the gospel of man." I think that woke religeon in the West, is grooming us for communism. Which ironically Putin hasnt figured out yet as he continues to disparage it, but the leader of China has with the implimentation of Tik Tok for the U.S. Tik tok algorithms and content are very different in China, because they aware of its ability to program people. It shows a lot of educational and kid friendly content. I dont think the words in this video about wokeism destroying democracy are too severe. There is a real danger here.
This woke culture began mainly with the Tony Blair Government and was confirmed when Gordon Brown called that woman a bigoted woman, because she voiced an opinion, this was helped along by Cherie Blair who called anyone who spoke out about any other ethnic view she called them racist. She saw this a way of making a lot of money from the legal aid system.
It feels like we're pushing back against a mass movement of air heads. It's become SO hard to simply reason with my own siblings - they're so taken in by woke culture, I feel like they've had frontal labotmies.
Reasonable you say, I never heard him mention the real atrocities like gays being thrown off buildings, Yazidi women captured and chained together along with so many other crimes against humanity by that religion of peace lot. Good riddance to the despicable, evil, truly racist man.
A Rainbow coloured statue of George Floyd May weather in Budapest. Wow! I like it, I like it, I like it. He is my best friend Even though I never met the man himself. My Hero.
What happened to that teacher who upset his kid when she led the whole of his class room to cheer on hearing her news that The Donald had got Covid 19 ? I think teachers like that must be severely disciplined . If reported however it's my experience that most teachers will automatically unite to deny accusations from kids
Decolonize music? So - remove ALL foreign influences? I guess we'll all be using only drum circles and vocals? I mean - Britain has had a MASSIVE list of influences on its local music - how far back to we go?!
I find it is very funny that obnoxious people who hold very unpopular opinions are crying because the public is saying to them "shut up". Freedom of speech is about the government not repressing speech. If one offends large groups in their culture, they can't just turn around and say that they are being persecuted. The government has no right to shut you up: however, your fellow citizens have no restrictions on calling you out for being wrong.
dont agree about the whole idea of art being countercultural ... it may be an important part depending on circumstances but the whole idea? isnt it more about expressing the truth inc tragedy n comedy of human condition in beauty?

Why isn’t it called what it is woke equal reflexivity from Open Society organisations around the world. Change facts and society by changing how it functions through opposite ideas thoughts driving actions even if irrational or rather irrational is preferred

You don't have to be able to spell now. Computer will correct for you.it might even be that literacy is a drawback. Try filling in these government forms. If you can't read or write a professional will fill it in for you.
ETHNIC BRITISH people are not racists, it is OUR country to say as we want, MAGNA CARTA,it is the other ethnics who are the racists,this is NOT their country, so they live to our ways and customs, can't do this. sod off and be offended some where else.
Note the WOKE 32 who've down voted this. . . They are everywhere, . . Let's rename it then as not woke but under the word "Thrush". . (Irritable fannys )
You need to understand the difference between critising the State of Israel and antisemitism....you run the danger of squashing such freedom of speech which is surely counter to your argument.... "We were always told who was the truest to read....." Hmmm
He should have stuck to acting. He could have found an outlet through playing racist characters to satisfied his needs. Instead he played the wrong card and paid the price. His comments have offended many so they have the right to cancel him. Sorry lozza you made your bed.
@@floydisnutz8443 comment rejected. Please dont belittle the issue. He's an offensive racist albeit your champion but an affront to real British values. Its a rare occasion one gets to see a racist getting the kicking that lozza has received. Good to see.

Unions are for the union(bosses) not for the people who are forced to pay them dues and then are told by the unions what to believe or else.
Patsy, you are probably alive because of the work a union member fighting for wages, healthcare, and vacations.

they get paid too much.
When I was a school kid teachers were jaded 40 somethings, when my kids were at school it had changed to teachers in their early 20s

USE LIBEL and DEFAMATION against the cancelers.
I find it is very funny that obnoxious people who hold very unpopular opinions are crying because the public is saying to them "shut up".
Freedom of speech is about the government not repressing speech.
If one offends large groups in their culture, they can't just turn around and say that they are being persecuted.
The government has no right to shut you up: however, your fellow citizens have no restrictions on calling you out for being wrong.
You don't get to 'cancel' cancel culture
dont agree about the whole idea of art being countercultural ... it may be an important part depending on circumstances but the whole idea? isnt it more about expressing the truth inc tragedy n comedy of human condition in beauty?

Why isn’t it called what it is woke equal reflexivity from Open Society organisations around the world. Change facts and society by changing how it functions through opposite ideas thoughts driving actions even if irrational or rather irrational is preferred
This is why Putin outlawed these organisations in their country and Western governments should as well
Too much time money and energy of humanity is wasted on this we are causing a loop effect and can’t move forward or up. Making these billionaires funding and foundations are of utmost importance immediately
if all else fails, resort to violet ( you know what I mean)
who let the guy in glasses walk out the house looking like that
Rowen Atkinson should be down.
Why? Genuinely not familiar with this
@@JG-kb8cp He was campaigning for free speech in the UK. Think it was something like "feel free to offend me".
@@JG-kb8cp "feel free to insult me" m.th-cam.com/video/oS9Ey3C_E-U/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for that.
@@JG-kb8cp Welcome. Thanks for not being obnoxious.
You don't have to be able to spell now. Computer will correct for you.it might even be that literacy is a drawback. Try filling in these government forms. If you can't read or write a professional will fill it in for you.
ETHNIC BRITISH people are not racists, it is OUR country to say as we want, MAGNA CARTA,it is the other ethnics who are the racists,this is NOT their country, so they live to our ways and customs, can't do this. sod off and be offended some where else.
Note the WOKE 32 who've down voted this. . . They are everywhere, . . Let's rename it then as not woke but under the word "Thrush". . (Irritable fannys )
You need to understand the difference between critising the State of Israel and antisemitism....you run the danger of squashing such freedom of speech which is surely counter to your argument....
"We were always told who was the truest to read....." Hmmm
How the actor twisted it as regards Israel and Palestine kills all his credibility. Noam Chomsky will agree with me. How disingenuous of you!!
Hungary is based
He should have stuck to acting.
He could have found an outlet through playing racist characters to satisfied his needs. Instead he played the wrong card and paid the price. His comments have offended many so they have the right to cancel him.
Sorry lozza you made your bed.
Sweet, summer child. Don't go outside it might make you cry.
@@floydisnutz8443 comment rejected. Please dont belittle the issue. He's an offensive racist albeit your champion but an affront to real British values.
Its a rare occasion one gets to see a racist getting the kicking that lozza has received. Good to see.
@@SmartfoolGB Thanks for all your assumptions 👌😆
@@floydisnutz8443 you're welcome 😁
nobody stopped Laurence saying anything ? He had his say, people reacted ? All he cares about is air time as thats now his meal ticket ?
Vile man failed actor and musician.
