If you’re online whining that Pink Floyd, Star Trek, and Star Wars have ‘gOnE wOke’ then you were never a fan of any of those things.
JL Roberson@godpod are there any incels in the theatre tonight?
@godpod oh wait, yeah, that one's got spots
Baron Vonskinnback@jlroberson @godpod I appreciate the reference, but in doing so you might have accidentally bundled incels in with Jews & gay people as an oppressed people...😬
@Vonskinnback @godpod Uh no, I was being what the kids call "satirical." You should read up on it!
#SCIENCEMATTERS@godpod it's like saying George Carlin sold out (he never did)
Breefolk@ottawatts @godpod That’s not true. He sold out quite a few shows!
Peter Kahn🏳️⚧️🇺🇦🇵🇸🏳️🌈@godpod I saw a rainbow from clouds. Nature is woke too.

meowomonYes! Exactly right.

🤡@godpod I may not believe in your existence, but damn, this insightful!
Geoffrey Hoytsman Esq@godpod original emperor is based off of Nixon. I’d put decent money on the prequel one being Gingrich.
Erkhyan@courtjezter @godpod Do check the name of the Trade Federation’s leader: Nute Gunray. Definitely a mix of Newt Gingrich and Reagan.
The Other Doug Jones 🇨🇦😎🖖 Elbows Up!

MacCruiskeen@BlippyTheWonderSlug @godpod that was episode 20, “the way to Eden “
Kristin@godpod I love that GR of Trek was told all the actors were to be white males of Western descent 🤨👽👩🏾🦱🤣🤣🤣
Mr. Bruno 
@godpod And they weren't paying much attention. This isn't the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.. It's a basic misunderstanding and misrepresentation of the source. Or, worse yet, outright lying and gaslighting.
Tim Ward ⭐🇪🇺🔶 #FBPE@godpod And they're nothing to Dr Who.
“Nobody important? Blimey, that’s amazing. You know, nine hundred years of time and space and I’ve never met anybody who wasn’t important before.”
You can't get any more woke than that.
Leo Gaudet@godpod Woke has no real meaning. That is why it is so effectively used by those who are intent on deviding our nation.
ToweroftheArchmage Antifascist@ToweroftheArchmage @godpod I stand corrected. Chat GPT described woke in detail.
Humble Fan of Atty. Wooweird wacky stuff, but honestly I was not into Star Trek that much never really liked Pink Floyd, though I did like some of their songs. We don't need no education (sounds like QAnon & trumpers). But, Star Wars, oh yeah. carry on.
the year was 1981 (she/her)@BillMcGuire
@godpod
Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2 ("We don't need no education...") is a protest against physical and emotional abuse in British schools.

okay, got it....carry on. I'm just not a Pink Floyd fan.....thanks.
Doctor Biobrain@BillMcGuire The We Don’t Need No Education song was about abusive authoritarian teachers who inflict emotional and physical damage on their students and says it’s certain teachers. It wasn’t against education in general. The Wall was Roger Waters’ personal experiences growing up after WWII and becoming an alienated rock star.
Plus, that was the worst of their popular albums after they ran out of better things to sing about. All their albums are best listened to entirely, not as singles.
hmmm, yes, I like some of their songs.....I only mentioned the lyrics of one, not that I necessarily liked the song. They are WAY down my list of groups I like. thanks. carry on

“The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity.”
― Capt. Jean-Luc Picard
Communists!!!
rood@HikerGeek @godpod communists are still acquiring wealth.
Wealth is antiquated in Star Trek because they elevated society well beyond the means of production.
Jan 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🇨🇦@godpod You'd think that anyone who saw the Wall would have figured out Pink Floyd's position on things pretty quickly. 😕
GeddyLeeRoth@godpod Or RATM, Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Green Day, Dead Kennedys…
Soozcat@godpod Gonna hazard a guess that a few of these folks were very young when they first became fans, and the social commentary/political messages went completely over their heads. It's always been there, folks
Eva Chanda@godpod
I mean, the whole point of Star Trek was Gene Roddenberry's vision of a utopian society: no racism, sexism, capitalism, toxic nationalism (cultural expression is ok), etc... The definition of woke socialism!

AntonVonCarmo@godpod Star Trek was incredibly progressive.
Wayne Werner@godpod just another brick in the wall raging against the machine
Kellic Tiger 
@godpod I don't mind woke as Star Trek has always been "woke" (Which is another term for treating everyone respectfully.) What I have issues with is the shit, nonsensical, lazy writing. Discovery, Picard when you really look at the writing....its garbage.
Jeff and 838 others@godpod I am so sick and tired of hearing and reading "woke". These stupid little culture war topics from conservatives usually only stick around for a few months and then are replaced by a new boogeyman. Woke just won't go away.
TransitBiker
UnknownQuantity@godpod WTF Pink Floyd?! That’s a new one.
ZorakXV@godpod all of those were "woke" before "woke" ha.
rootfish@godpod OK whose saying Pink Floyd is now woke? Did they say or tweet something lately?
Flutterwasp@godpod "I was a huge fan of Rage Against The Machine until they got political"
gavinisdie 
@godpod true star wars fans complain about the sequels
NothingToSeeHere@godpod THANK YOU!! I mean, Gene Roddenberry wanted Utopia. Roger Waters is such an activist he almost didn’t release Radio K.A.O.S. until he saw Live Aid.
Peggy Stuart@godpod Star Trek was "woke" before it was a thing.
Back Look Cinema@godpod especially Star Trek.
Toadman628@godpod If their anti-woke about things, they don't understand, then do we dumb down for them? How about something like the old Golden Books children's books level? Titles like "Johnny spends his allowance on novels while daddy only buys beer...who's is the adult? " or "Mommy lives in the next state over...". Do you know about something else besides US magazine? Any better ideas?

justsusanholdingon@godpod it’s like when people bitch about Willie Nelson being too liberal. Dude… listen to the effing songs.
Scenario@godpod Funny, I’m considering entering Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon animation contest. I have a stop motion script all blocked out to cover a song, but the prize is only £10,000 per. And that’s hardly worth the effort. Are you listening, #NickMason & #PinkFloyd?
Mark MifsudI am whining about Star Wars becoming crap & I readily admit that I was never a fan. Altough it has some good stories, I think it has always been grossly over rated. Now it's just shit.
Star Trek has always bee Woke AF so I don't understand how it can go woke.
Colossal Wiener@godpod Pink Floyd is a band not a TV show
Gwladys Pendlebury@godpod Roger Waters pushes for the murder and rape of the colonized which is very un-woke.
