    A segment of Fox Nation host Piers Morgan's show - "Piers Morgan: Uncensored" - went off the rails on Wednesday when the host and one of his guests dared to criticize performer Sam Smith's appearance.

    Morgan hosted a conversation with author Douglas Murray and comedian James Barr, and when the topic turned to Smith's recent controversial performances - which Morgan and Murray both panned - Barr lost his temper.

    WATCH:


    Murray began the conversation, saying that Smith had managed to keep people's attention by first coming out as gay, and then as gender queer. "And then he said he was non-binary, and he said he didn't know what it meant - well, of course he didn't, because there's no such thing."

    "They," Barr interrupted, correcting Murray on Smith's preferred pronouns.

    "If you're going to make everyone else distort the language, you should know what you're talking about," Murray continued.

    Murray went on to compare Smith's penchant for removing clothing onstage to other performers who have stripped down during performances, arguing that in the case of performers like Justin Timberlake or Rihanna, at least they looked good while doing it.

    "Sam Smith is like pudgy and very ugly," Murray added. "And so people look at it, and he looks ridiculous. And the problem is that he's saying, 'Don't ridicule me,' but it's hard not to ridicule when they present themselves as - ridiculous."

    Barr started to object, but Morgan jumped in: "I completely agree. Why say, 'don't ridicule me' when you deliberately make yourself look ridiculous?"

    "No," Barr said. "That is disgusting, it's a completely disgusting rhetoric from both of you -"

    "It is disgusting, yeah, we do find it disgusting," Morgan replied, referring to Smith's presentation.

    "No, what you're saying is disgusting," Barr insisted.

    "What? We're allowed to find him disgusting," Morgan objected.

    "No, you are not!" Barr shouted back, to which Morgan replied, "Yes, I am."

    Barr insisted that Morgan could not "keep commenting all the time about what people look like," but Morgan objected to that as well: "Yes, I can! If they're going to dress like that on a stage in front of millions of people around the world, absolutely I can."

    Ignoring Morgan's overall assertion, Barr thanked him for "getting the pronoun correct" - prompting Morgan to ask Barr whether he'd remembered to address his host properly.

    "Hottest man in the world, Piers - according to some and yourself," Barr replied.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?
  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.
  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.
  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?
