Perhaps the asparagus should become the symbol of the war-on-the-war-on-woke, to be worn in an appropriate cap in the forthcoming armageddon
Anti Woke movement grows

But sometimes the first step in resolving a problem is to call attention to it.

And hopefully gather like minded people around the issue.
Does it matter how small and insignificant the gesture? Making a gesture that says ‘Racism is a bad thing’, regardless of how small, can surely only be a positive? To sneer at that small gesture, even if the sneerer is making a bigger gesture themself, is a negative and can only, in the long run, subtract from the bigger gesture.
Why sneer at any gesture that says racism is bad?
What is the motivation behind the sneer?

Surely that should be:
“WHAT DO WE WANT?”
“ASPARAGUS AND SOCIAL JUSTICE!”
“WHEN DO WE WANT IT?”
“ONLY WHEN IT’S IN SEASON!”

“AND WITH BUTTER AND SALT ONLY.
(none of that Hollandaise sauce shit, we’re not THAT woke)”
This is nonsense. Sport has been a political in Western democratic countries for a very long time too. Why else would countries like the UK or Switzerland grant fast-track nationality to foreign athletes if not to boost the image of their nations on the world stage.
Nobody is forced to join in. Some teams don’t do it anymore, and those that don’t are not subjected to any barrages of hate... unlike, for example, those players who find it inappropriate to wear a poppy in November. And if ever there was a lip-service gesture, that’s the one you should be calling out.
I also happen to think that the kneeling is something that has now lost its meaning through overuse, but I wouldn’t boo it, and I have no problem with players continuing with it for as long as it has meaning to them, or other players standing.
I guess what I’m saying, without ever having to diverge into the seasonality of produce, is that I don’t feel I’m entitled to have the whole world pander to my particular prejudices.

How many of us find that asparagus makes urine smell differently?
Not everyone does.
I do.
It’s a genetic thing.

Clearly the band member on the left hadn’t just been sticking to asparagus,
When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the age of Asparagus

I was 8 when that came out and I really loved it. Later on it was Elvis live from Hawaii by satellite, men were walking on the moon, it was a great time,
don’t know what the drummer was on though, sounds wired to the moon.

OT but that's Ron Tutt. Between him and Jerry Scheff, they really made things move along a bit.
...oh, and James Burton on guitar, too.

Ron Tutt played with Jerry Garcia 1974-8 alongside other notorious dope fiends like Nicky Hopkins and John Kahn. Of course it is possible he was the only sober member of the band. Jerry called Ron Tutt "the Rolls-Royce of drummers".

If another country was reading a bill to curtail the powers of social media, while promoting the singing of nationalistic songs in schools, threatening to defund the national broadcaster unless it toes the line and attempting to limit the ability of its citizens to peacefully protest, what would we call it?
