    From the original actual news article:

    Christie explained that he sees the term “woke” as referring to a “new age of thinking that’s quite left and quite Green” but isn’t factual. “It’s based on the surface on good principles — let’s protect our native bush. But then when you actually are educated and you look into a little bit further, it’s like, no, that actually doesn’t make sense,” he added.

    Somehow in these people’s thinking they’re the educated ones. They know that state parks are good but national parks are bad. Smashing up the bush with your diesel soaked 4WD protects the environment. Logging native forests is good for the environment.

    I see echoes of the old ‘carbon is actually good for the environment’ in these weirdos.

    ‘“XXXX”, its Australian of “PISS”.’

    That said, it is also appropriate that BCF sell both Great Northern and personal watercraft because it is “Making love in a Canoe” beer.

    I get the 4x stuff is satire, but is the part about people complaining about GN going “woke” true?

    I don’t drink, but I’ll buy a carton of GN if it’s true.
