The stated goal is "the total eradication of western civilization" * and England is leading the way

she called it long ago; sadly, this destruction is not confined to Britain:

“Also in 2021, it was reported that a growing number of 'woke' academics are refusing to teach Shakespeare in U.S. schools, arguing that the Bard promotes racism, white supremacy and intolerance, and instead are pushing for the teaching of 'modern' alternatives.”

Grateful Calvin:

It is impossible to overstate the influence that William Shakespeare has had on this world. While the Bible is considered the best-selling book of all time, there is no question that Shakespeare is the best-selling author of all time. Somewhere between two to four billion of his works have been sold. Thousands upon thousands of live productions of his 37 plays have been and continue to be performed, not to mention the many film and television adaptations of those plays. His 154 sonnets are studied to this day for their themes, including love, mortality, youth, and death. And his plays have been translated into every major living language on the planet. 

You would think that the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, which owns many buildings in the English town of Stratford-upon-Avon, would be beaming with pride every day for the legendary writer that the small market town produced in 1564.

Sadly, with the state of the United Kingdom these days, you would be very, very wrong. This morning, the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust announced that they would be 'decolonizing' the town out of fears of 'white supremacy.'

The Daily Mail has additional details.

William Shakespeare's birthplace will be de-colonised over fears that portraying his success as the 'greatest' playwright 'benefits the ideology of white European supremacy'.

It wants to 'create a more inclusive museum experience' and announced it will move away from Western perspectives after concerns were raised that Shakespeare's ideas were used to advance 'white supremacy' ideas. 

The trust also said that some of its items could contain language or depictions that are racist, sexist, or homophobic.

These insane accusations are primarily arising from a 2022 research project that the trust conducted with Birmingham University. They found that holding Shakespeare up as the pinnacle of literature (which he is and always will be) caused 'harm' and advised that the trust stop referring to him as 'greatest.' Instead, they recommended referencing Shakespeare as part of an 'equal but different' global community of writers.
