    And expressing a point of view which is different from the 'accepted' point of view is seen as some sort of crime - especially in the academic world.

    But even more so I am seeing it in the workplace - I was working with our digital/agile youths - and I voted Brexit - they made it quite clear to me I was wrong and that if I have that point of view then in general I should not be allowed to have that point of view and needed to be re-educated to have the accepted point of view.

    Which is just a bit scary.

    I fear the youth of today confuse conformity with stability.

          Not really sure what this means other than you cannot use the coin/change machine between those times.

          So it would seem there is a new generation of people who simply struggle to exist as a standard human being.

          And the rest of the world has to change because of it.

          I prefer survival of the fittest myself.
          I haven't (been diagnosed with any) mental conditions and I'd much prefer this. Just as I prefer pubs without music and coffee-shops you can have a quiet chat without having to shout.

          What you describe as "existing as a standard human being" definitely wasn't standard when you were the age the kids are now. THe world is much louder and busier which is why I live in the country.

            So you frequent Weatherspoons and the local granny cafe? Makes sense

              A day in the life of a ‘gammon’

              A day in the life of a ‘gammon’
              6th September 2018


              HAVE you ever wondered what it’s like being a permanently furious middle-aged white man? Here gammon Roy Hobbs describes a typical day.

              8.30am. Read the Daily Express over breakfast. Apparently the EU wants to ban Christmas presents! I haven’t even finished my eggy soldiers and I’m already furious.

              9.30am. Arrive at my office in Chichester. Lucy asks if I want a cup of tea. The way women are these days I’m lucky she didn’t sue me for sexual harassment just for saying ‘hello’.

              11.30am. Go outside for a fag. Get really angry when I imagine in detail Chichester becoming a multicultural hellhole with a mosque and a scooter gang on every corner.


              1pm. Lunch. Have a bacon sandwich before they’re banned to avoid offending The People We’re Not Allowed To Talk About. Vein in my neck really pulsating now.

              2.30pm. Get the biscuits out and spend the afternoon on BBC comments under my username ‘SodOffGordonBroon’. Put a few millennial snowflakes to rights about how easy they’ve got it these days.

              7pm. Dinner with the wife in my house that’s quadrupled in value due to buying at the right time. Remember how oppressed I am as a middle-aged white man and am forced to have a large glass of Merlot to calm down.

              10pm. Go to BBC Question Time in Chichester. Whenever the one Remainer panellist says anything I shout ‘RUBBISH! BLOODY RUBBISH!’. It’s about time these quisling traitor bastards were made to listen to reason.

              12.30am. Finally get to bed. No idea why, but I feel too angry to sleep for some reason.

                Nice.

                  And then I realised it also applies to nearly every genetically miserable bastard in Yorkshire.

                    The idea that there would be only one Remainer on question time is hilarious.

                      Yet you'd be the first to wave the Daily Mail in disgust if the BBC started dumbing down its panel to reflect the majority cretin population.
