SJW shamed for "hyper-stupidity".

One of the unexpected consequences of the Wuhan Flu pandemic is a growing impatience with SJWs from Normies in society. And by Normies I mean all you people in the dead-center middle of the bell curve who never notice anything, just go about your business and are oblivious to the forces trying to fuck your lives over. It took a fucking plague to wake y'all the hell up.

Well, the Suddenly Awake set heard an SJW doing what she's been doing since 2010 at least, and they all screamed "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!!!"

But Dr Emily Cousens, who researches at Oxford Brooke's but teaches at the University of Oxford, wrote in the Huffington Post: "The race is on and researchers at Oxford are doing vital, life-saving work. But races have winners and losers.

"If my university is the first to develop the vaccine, I'm worried that it will be used as it has been in the past, to fulfil its political, patriotic function as proof of British excellence."

"The story will be clear: China, once again, has unleashed a threat to civilisation. But the best brains of the UK have saved the world."

Dr Cousens also took aim at Boris Johnson's handling of the coronavirus crisis, lashing out at the Government's response to the pandemic.


One would think that Dr. Cousens speaks with some authority, given the "Doctor" and the "Oxford University Professor" in her title. But one would be wrong.

Dr Emily Cousens researches vulnerability and gender at Oxford Brookes university and teaches on the women's studies masters course at University of Oxford.

Dr. Cousens has a PhD in gender studies, and knows as much about vaccines and the pandemic as Myrtle the cleaning lady who works in the Oxford University cafeteria. Maybe less, as Myrtle at least knows how to clean a lunch counter and get the frickin' germs off.

From the Huff-annd-Puff-Post article, here's the part everyone is complaining about:

Let's suppose that Oxford does develop the first vaccine. What happens next? 

David Heymann, an infectious disease specialist at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, who heads a panel that advises the World Health Organization (WHO) on Coronavirus, says that there could be a production shortage. Researchers have also warned that this will lead to rich countries hoarding supplies. We were too late when it came to stockpiling PPE, but we won't be caught out again. The vaccine, developed by our finest brains, is ours. And it will be Britons who are prioritised for protection. 

If there is enough vaccine to go round, the UK will be the world's saviour. We'll quickly forget the devastating delay of the UK government to take action, as Boris Johnson proudly safeguarded British institutions like individual liberty, and the pub, over lives. 

We'll forget the lessons that the pandemic has taught us so far: that the UK and the US are in fact not exceptions at the global stage. That we are not only vulnerable but can also afford to learn lessons from countries, regardless of whether we have a special relationship with them – such as South Korea. That being white, male and Oxford-educated may not be the only criteria for effective leadership (the countries whose responses have been most widely praised, Germany and New Zealand among others, are all led by women).


The problem is not that the above is utter lunacy. Of course it is lunacy, she's complaining that a successful vaccine will be a win for Oxford, for Britain and for straight white males. That's insane. But it is also 100% normal for SJWs, they say this type of thing ALL THE TIME and y'all Normies don't pay a lick of attention. That lack of attention is how Emily Cousens got a PhD in the first place, and how she still has a job. This woman has the brain of an eggplant, she's probably not capable of cleaning the friggin' lunch room.

But the one bright light in all of this is that the Normies finally looked up from their phones, and Dr. Emily is getting a well-deserved shellacking in the press. Yay. Nice of you boys and girls to join us here in the Real World.

Virtue Signaling, especially the raving Moonbat variety, is a luxury good, a bit of philosophical conspicuous consumption the the rich & privileged love to engage in.

Which is why you have rich white women from rich white families trying to equate the scorn heaped on "Karens" as somehow being the exact same thing as racial slurs.

During the good times, people ignore it. But, when times are rough, people have little patience for this nonsense- especially when their own money is being taken from them and used to pay these idiots.

Hi Joe.

It is my most fervent hope that the Normies will remember how scared they are right now for years to come, and vote accordingly.

I don't expect it, but I do have a little hope.

Here's hoping it sticks.

Right? The media is nothing to go by, they're just making shit up now as they go along. Media stories tell you nothing.

But every time I go out, to the store or to do some business, people I see are -terrified-. You go to the Walmart to pick up the groceries, (during your designated time slot, so convenient! I actually like that part) and the line to go inside the store is two hundred feet long, everybody standing 10 feet apart, stone-faced. Everybody around here is Scots descent, you never saw so many dour faces.

You ever see a Scot with that bone-white face and they look like they were chiseled from granite, you cross the street and continue on the other side. That's an Unexploded Scotsman. Minimum safe distance is about 50 feet, same as a grenade.

The skinny red-haired middle aged women are about the worst ones. It takes more to set one off, but they go nuclear.
