  • Why is the Anglosphere particularly susceptible to woke? Britain, the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand seem to have succumbed to progressive ideology to a far greater degree than other Western nations. Why is this?
    This clip is taken from a longer NCF Deprogrammed interview with Prof. Nigel Biggar, Regius Professor Emeritus of Moral Theology at the University of Oxford, and Distinguished Scholar in Residence at Pusey House, Oxford.
    Prof. Biggar is author of the best-selling book: Colonialism: A Moral Reckoning. He is interviewed by Harrison Pitt of the European Conservative magazine and Connor Tomlinson of Lotus Eaters

This then seeps into mainstream society so that even our courts are tying themselves in knots trying not to break the new unwritten, juvenile-driven laws about race, religion, pronouns and a how the world should be run.

      Without intellectuals you'd still be writing numbers in the dirt and living in a cave. You're right about higher moral standards though. Just because someone is clever it doesn't automatically make them a better person. But the anti-intellectualism, the pro-ignorance, of the modern day in right wing media has a long history. It originated in Republican America and is a result of the insane levels of American religious nationalism and its war upon science, reason and truth.

    The main problem is a spiritual one.
    All English speaking nations can trace their origins back to a nation whose entire moral code, belief system, customs, laws and social structures were founded upon Christianity. What has been allowed to happen is the eroding, disabling and almost entire rejection of that foundation, leaving a colossal vacuum for any ideology to fill.
    Currently fighting to fill the vacuum are common bed-fellows Neo-Marxism and Islam, because they are in conflict with a common enemy (Christian civilisation), but when any significant influence of the latter has been nullified, as it will in the Anglosphere, those two bed-fellows will no longer want to share the same bed.

      No one has to become racist, people need to be encouraged to think and say no to ideas that will ultimately disadvantage them, and that applies to all UK citizens, whatever their heritage. Some of my family are from an immigrant background, the other part are indigenous to the extent that their ancestors were displaced by the Anglo Saxon invaders. Fine, populations change and culture is never static, but for any people to be asked or told to make innumerable concessions to their present cultural identity and values, the consequences will be catastrophic. Apart from anything else, a point will be reached when acquiescence ceases and retaliation begins, along with chaos and chaotic thinking. Let's not attempt to persuade anyone to take a route that leads there. Which isn't to suggest passivity, but thoughtful responses that can lead to an effective challenge. Engage people, inform them, urge them to inform themselves and act on that basis.

Unelected “leaders” are appointed one after another by the wokes, do you reckon they have the best interest of our people, the real British people, at heart?

    One of the reasons that western countries are woke is that we have had a relatively stable and prosperous time of it over the past three decades - we have achieved a comfortable position where certain parts of society can start to address what they see as social wrongs. One can liken it to a type of Sociological Maslow's hierarchy of needs, we have achieved a position where those that want to can luxuriate in their Marxist ideologies while maintaining their champagne socialist lifestyle.

    I think another reason the Anglosphere seems to be so uniquely woke, is due to the fact that this wokeness ideology began in the USA, and already Anglophone country, and then migrated from there across the globe, with other Anglophone societies falling under its sway much faster than non-Anglophone countries. The Anglosphere is probably a decade or two ahead of most non-Anglophone countries as a result.

    Part of it is purely linguistic: in most European languages there is a strong distinction between e.g. male and female roles. Read, say, any French film closing credits, it will list e.g. the film's editor as "Monteur" when male and as "Monteuse" when female.

(Evinced by virtue-signalling, ‘rescuing’ supposedly oppressed minorities; and the excommunication of dissenters.)

The British were actively persuaded to undermine their own economic interests for the sake of a moral principle when they abolished slavery. They were right to do it, but it started this process of collectively guilt tripping the people to achieve an objective. It was then further exacerbated in the 19th century with the advent of liberalism. Again, people usually had to be persuaded that the continuation of imperialism/empire was done to serve a higher moral principle - that it was in the interests of humanity to share our civilisation with other parts of the world - and it wasn’t enough to just claim that it was in the best interests of the nation to conquer foreign lands and control their resources, which may have been true but it would appear entirely self-interested.
