Default 'Woke' parents demand kids do not ride "Dick" Turpin ride in York

Woke' parents demand York Dungeon
change name of its Dick Turpin carriage ride
to 'Richard' because they find it 'offensive'


None of these Snowflake parents want their kids
riding "Dick Turpin"



[The York Dungeon has refused to change
the name of its new Dick Turpin ride
Woke parents said the nickname
was offensive and rude
Richard 'Dick' Turpin was an
infamous criminal who was executed in York in 1739
Shocked bosses at the
dungeon said: 'We’re here to say
that Dick, is here to stay
]


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-complain.html



[York Dungeon has refused to change the name
of its latest carriage ride Dick Turpin after
'woke' parents complained that its name
had 'potentially rude connotations'.
The parents wanted to the ride to changed
to Richard Turpin.]



Good. Leave Dick Alone.

OMG this made me laugh , these people need to butt out of trying to change everything to suit them. No one ever heard of Richard Turpin Dick is known by all.

The nickname of Dick for Richard has no connotations with a penis and as such its the people who are complaining who are making that connection themselves

have a look in the mirror you thick twats

Sounds more like conservative Helen Lovejoy types which are not at all woke. Can't pass up the opportunity to use it for clickbait though.

Not a single quote from a woke parent, yet loads of quotes from weirdos offended by something for which there is no evidence. Looks like nothing more than a way to drum up business tbh.

It's not really woke though is it? More prudish maybe?

Nah, not sure why the paper decided to stick "woke parents" in there but it says that the parents found it rude which suggests they're prudish about the name also being a slang word for penis

I find them offensive to me saying that the name "Dick" is offensive. My Grandma's brother, my great uncle was my Uncle Dick. How dare they be so offensive to me, shame on them.

I don't know if this is woke tbh.

These parents groups since the dawn of time have always tried to be the fun police.

From Psycho to Halloween to A Nightmare On Elm Street to GTA to Dexter to now Dick, parents have tried to ban all of these products because "think of the children" I remember one of their websites from America tried saying that Grey's Anatomy should be given an age rating of 18.

Basically it's something that's always existed, for once the idiotic woke crowd are innocent.

£18 to visit York Dungeon

They should be ashamed, even Dick Turpin wore a mask.
