And also spoken to there being a tipping point of non European /white populace in the UK causing a loss of 'English identity and culture.' So, speaking specifically to the two points you just made, i really don't know where you're coming from. Or what your real objection is?

Brilliant people like Murray and Peterson use their words very carefully and concisely to get across basic logical thought and without packing it with emotional blackmail. They also are an enormous vent for the masses who cannot stand up for themselves verbally. They definitely give me courage to speak my mind rationally, and if the Modernazi's want to reject me, that's fine. "Keep Calm" And Win.

    He actually speaks with a bit of a broad accent, but it's important to remember that his speech is still somewhat posh and sophisticated for someone of his generation. Look up some of the archival footage videos of street interviews with Australians in the 1960s, and you'll see how the accent has evolved over time. I was born in 2000 in Adelaide, SA, and I grew up here. My brothers and I speak with a fairly posh accent (although we sound more general when drunk), yet my parents (born in the 60s) sound much less posh than we do

    I love John Anderson; I don't think there's a finer man on the planet. Sincere, thoughtful, deeply intelligent, gracious, caring. Every interview he does is worth watching; he allows his guests to speak; when he challenges a guest it is intellectually and not mean-spirited 'gotcha' kind of nonsense. I admire him tremendously.

    @@JohnAndersonConversations Hi, Kristian. I'm American ; I live in Florida. I've been watching John's 'conversations' for probably two - three years. I even watch when I don't know who the guest is because in his conversations, John brings out important information whether for Australians or for the world at large. He allows his guests the time to answer questions fully, he never bullies or over-rides his guests but listens - imagine that! he listens - and tries to balance what the guest has to say with what is going on in the world and as he himself sees things. It is exactly what a conversation should be - an exchange of ideas. I have never seen him unprepared and whatever may be going on in the production side of the conversations, he never seems rushed but ready to give his guest the fullness of his attention. Especially today, it's uplifting to see a host treat his guests so well, whether they agree in principle or not. I just think he's the best there is.

    Dear Mr Anderson and Mr Murray, I have watched Mr Murray discuss a myriad of topics and it always has been an enlightening experience, but in watching Mr Murray talk openly with Mr Anderson, one has the impression that both of you bring out the best in each other. It just comes across as the most honest and down-to-earth dialogue with no one coming off as trying to be better than the other, but genuinely interested in what the other has to say. I have never heard Mr Anderson speak, but the sheer openness and humaneness in his approach to life is something we are not used to

"Wokeness" is a retrograde religion which has poisoned every sector of life it's touched. And Mr. Murray is 100% correct to identify the fact "wokeness" has exactly the same totalitarian flavor manifested by religious zealotry in eras past.
