Wake Up by Piers Morgan
1.0
Heavy is the head that bears the burden of being called a twat on Twitter.
Wake Up is a lesson about a barking dog. Maybe he’ll bark at the burglars. Maybe he’ll bark at passing cars. When do you say “Good boy”?
Passing Cars
There is a group of people who are woke. Woke people do things that Morgan does not like.
This makes them objectively bad.
Sometimes these illiberal liberals tell Morgan to shut up.
This is also objectively bad, perhaps even as bad as publishing falsified pictures of British soldiers committing warcrimes.
I question the value in debating Morgan about trans people in sports, or vegan sausages, or whatever point he’s making when he writes that James Bond will remain a man. Is it right to post “RIP feminism” every time a model posts nudes? Probably not the first line I’d go for but hey, I’m not going to argue with a guy charming enough to let his colleagues know when they sexually arouse him:
“They’re certainly sustaining me”.
Quite
Delving into each of his points is to be a dog on the other side of the road barking back. If you are an expert on the issues he deems noteworthy, go for it. But don’t feel compelled to debate him on the ground of his choosing. In either case, there can be no true victory against someone with his platform, instead he’ll take his ball home and moan about a vicious mob intent on ‘cancelling’ anyone on Twitter… at length.
The point (made often) is that Morgan is intellectually lazy. He sees something pass before his eyes and instinctually reacts. He barks. The things he does not see do not exist. Causes for a liberal like Morgan such as the imposition of Gender Recognition Certificates or the ethics of journalists filming immigrants bailing water from dinghies are apparently not worth mentioning. Causes such as whether darkening the colour of the Wombles makes them more ‘relatable’ apparently are.
Burglars
Morgan lets us know, at length, what a good job he did with holding the government to account over COVID-19 along with supporting immigrant front line workers and a scintilla of empathy for the Black Lives Matter movement.
Congrats to Morgan for using his gigantic platform to do the bare minimum. Nice of him to then immediately turn those crises as tools to vaguely bash at the wokery, also known as a new form of fascism. Major events are no more than interlude that do not materially change his views.
My point is that Morgan should not get much, if any credit, for occasionally appearing to be a helpful character. Nothing about his processes for making the “good” decisions are any better than when he decides that the main societal problem with rape cases is where their female accusers had lied. Morgan is the constantly barking dog, who could turn on you after the next ad break. Coincidental convergences do not an ally make.
Sometimes you have to send those types of dogs to a farm upstate.
