More woke madness.
« on: 14 May 2021, 13:57:16 »
Why do London North East trains feel the need to apologise?.... :(

Yet again we have an example of the 99% majority required to appease the 1% minority of woke idiots. :-X

Non binary means you're neither male nor female, so you don't actually exist  :)

I thought it meant you were Arthur on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday..... and Martha on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday......or is that 'gender fluid'? :)

There are over 100 genders in total so I can't be expected to know them all. :)

But you need to agree to they/them......or else. :D

This is a funny take on 'The Twilight Zone' from the fifties.

The opposite of Binary is apparently single.

So either they are apologising to all the single people, or they are trying to imply that we are all unique. Which we are.

Anyhoo, all these labels and boxes are, by definition, discriminatory  :-X

However these people identify they should understand that 99% of normal people do not identify in the same way. Therefore, as a tiny minority, they need to fit in rather than try to dictate how the majority think, and the language we use.

The train operator should have said 99.9% of our customers are happy with the use of ladies, gentlemen, boys and girls, so we see no reason to change this message.......but instead they apologise profusely. Shame on them. :-\

Christ. Must be nice to live in a world where that's the most important thing to think about.

As long as its legal and between consenting adults, who gives a shit who puts what into who... But this is just ridiculous attention seeking nonsense.
