    Seems to be a lot of them around lately. Rest assured you don't represent majority public opinion no matter how much you try anonymously online.

    And don't think boardsies don't notice who the party hacks are or the co-ordinated group posting. We all know;)

    You just have to look at the debacle last night about the "Photoshopped" image of the brick thrower.
    Quite a lot of them showed their true agenda last night

    They are obviously just a blue shirt hack or a labour shill trying to tarnish SF and the socialists. I've noticed an increase in damning stories and incriminating accusations against SF recently, this is just another one.

    The original photo looked photoshopped.
    The video proved it wasn't.
    Get over yourself.

    Your obvious paranoia is getting the better of you.

    The Shinnerbots on here would do one in their kacks if someone produced a water pistol. They are the usual imaginary hard men wearing their easter lily and trying to give the impression that they are just back from the frontline.

    It's interesting, the use of the term 'bot' used to demean Sinn Fein proponents. Personally I find the election & re-election of the same proven failures election after election the most robotic thing of all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 512 ✭✭✭md23040


    It more interesting for boardies to know within these political stereotypes who are apple and who are android fanboi's.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭Duckworth_Luas


    Is "Shinnerbot" a Boards.ie only term?

    It's getting really tiresome.

    Using the terms shinnerbot and blueshirt should be banned.
    Also the phrase 'Is that you Enda / Gerry / Denis?'.
    Also accusations of shilling.

    It'd get very quiet around here 'though.

    Meh....

    Anyone that's influenced by what appears to be public opinion on an Internet discussion site must be a little on the thick side.

    We ha economic meltdown. Now we have some economic recovery.
    Different result, but some people are so addicted to misery that they refuse to acknowledge it.

    I think that many people assess the performance of the economy by looking at their own personal circumstances. And as times are tough for a lot of people they genuinely do not see the economic recovery and the difference between the current and previous governments.

    That is a pretty disgusting assertion to make.

    Its pretty obvious you are so far removed from reality that you dont actually know that there are a vast amount of people 'living' in misery.

    But sure dont let that get in the way of your stories of recovery of massaged job figures.

    The reality is a stark difference.

    Im sure you have heard of the term living to work.


    Wake up sunshine.

    Absolutely.

    There is no recovery if people arent recovering with it. So you just made my point.

    Some people are prospering, but that is what always happens in depressions when you drive down wages and force people to make concessions just to put food on the table and a roof over their head.

    The money is going somewhere alright but not into the hands of workers.


    Society is accelerating fast towards a caste system.

    The West has seen substantial drops in the live register figures.

    And you made my point. Can you outline how a path to recovery might have been plotted from say 5 years ago that would not have caused considerable and long lasting difficulties for the people?

    Yes, all cleverly fudged without creating employment

    Ok Phoebas can you now produce some fancy stats on emmigration from the west.

    incidently produce some stats of the jobbridge figures out of your much lauded live figure stats you just pulled out.

    Since of course it is you that is showing juked stats as some reference of recovery.

    Total employment is also up.

    The increase in total employment of 31,600 in the year to Q2 2014 was

    Absolutely, it comes from the top down seen in the behaviour of the dear leader and his comrades.

    If you read some websites you would think that Sinn Fein are the only solution to any problems in the world. They could easily sort out ebola, stop world hunger, but how dare anyone question their past, there was a was a war on you know.

    Fortunately, most sane people can see through it.

    I dont think you get it. do you.


    People will not have an issue pushing against the back of the bus. If they could see the TDs pushing the bus with them. Instead you have them lifting up the handbrake every now and then and a load of them laughing out the back window.

    There has been no real concerted effort to address the problems of the last reign. We are treated to more of the same, and contempt for the voter. Jobs for the boys, Sure we'll get away with it, people are stupid. unvouched expenses. buy offs with childrens allowance.

    Where is the intelligent thinkers in the corridors of power.

    Governance is 90% perception. And jesus they cant even get that right. Who the hell do the contract for PR because they are being ripped off.
