GO AWAY: Woke Mob Tries to Sink Children’s Ride. Owner Doesn’t Give a Ship.

A handful of parents in England decided a Titanic-themed children’s slide was the iceberg to die on. The slide has been there for years. Nobody cared until the slide’s return this summer.

At Graveley Fruit Farm near Hitchin, Hertfordshire, just north of London, £2 buys a turn on the ride. Children climb into a replica of the ship’s stern, which rises and sends them down four slides onto a crash mat.

Graveley opened in 1981 and offers fruit picking in summer, crazy golf, a playground, and water slides. The Titanic ride ran for several years before returning in May; the online complaints showed up this summer.

Before each turn, the children get boarding passes. The farm calls the trip a “wreck,” and about 500 people use the ride on a busy day. Roughly 500 children happily abandoning ship, and until recently, very few adults demanding an inquiry.

That changed on Facebook.

I haven’t been on Facebook since 2018 or 2019, when the company demanded my phone number to complete my login. It appears nothing has changed.
