DUMB, SELF INDULGENT, UNEDUCATED BUNCH OF SHEEP

MRnotlob606

Now you maybe wondering about the title, it is in fact a an excerpt from a an article written by a very pissed off Dutch person living in Ireland.It did make me a little bit angry,

He just makes big generalisations about Irish people and the government.I think he's a self conceited arsehole who should start at home before he goes on criticising Ireland without half a brain.I'm posting this to boards because I think all Irish people should see this.

I found the story here..... from a quick glance at it, the author appears to be giving out about the Irish taking so much sh1t and cuts from our government without really protesting much... he does go about it in a very derogatory way and basically insulting all the Irish people.... I think on purpose to get us angry, not at him, but at the Government.

That is what I am getting from it anyways.

To be honest I did find myself agreeing with him on sumpoints, but the rest is just empty rhetoric. Saying how we are dumb****s and sheeple.

From the link.

I am amazed that you have different names for parties who are basically the same, giving you the same choices to destroy yourself and you, dumb ****s, believe it every time.  You believe it is all going to be better with  this or that party  in power. Can't you see their promises are false and they have shafted you every time

I dont get it... was he living in Buncrana?

osarusan

I like sheep.

Eugene Norman

I liked it. It's probably more of a Donegal rant (the anti- Englishness is not really replicated as much elsewhere) and he is right about our U.S. obsession.

ankaragucu

He's right.

The Backwards Man

Shows we haven't got a monopoly on freemanesque idiots anyway.

And yet he chose to live here and not all those countries that do it better...

We'll see what's so great about the Netherlands after the seas rise another few meters :P

Fudge You

This person is not dutch. Its an irish person on the wind up!

It is someone who hates the government blah blah, why arent you protesting more??? Send "them" to jail, haha.

But wait, there is more:

Why do we not speak our own language?

The germans are currently taking over.

why do you follow english football teams? And sing rebel songs?

You are racist begrudgers.

Why are you not out on the streets having a go at them, (them = governement)

The garda are dogs on a leach.

Denis o brien and big corporations.

They are already below sea level in many places. In fact they reclaimed the land.

I'd say he is either Irish or has been living here a long time. Certainly a leftie.

Tell me!!!! Is he right?
Anyways Voice of Ireland is on later.

Wouldn't be surprised, the title says dutch but the URL says Danish.

He's right, but Holland is no better. When did you hear of mass protests or strikes there? He fails to see it's the EU doing this, not Irish politicians.

True but Inishowen while in donegal isn't very typical of donegal. It's a large area but very small and community based. The people aren't receptive to change or outsiders yet many of them actually believe they live in Northern Ireland and can drive NI registered cars without consequence. The area seems to have a very high rate of road fatalities which suggests they don't adhere to rules or laws and that has been my general opinion from visiting the area countless times.

I wonder what his boards account is?

Meh, can't say I disagree with the afore mentioned points. At least in parts! But that good old ah shure attitude prevails and on I go munching my grass! Bahh! The thing is for many people here life isn't so bad whichever way you look at it.. Good education decent job plenty of monies to be had if you're in the right sector! So long as my life remains unnaffected by the rest of the sh1t that goes on I don't care and if I do I will emigrate!

To be honest it's true. One of our self made billionaires massed his fortune via bribery as opposed to capitalistic principles. We have a long line of leaders who also were glorified robbers and yet many hold these up to be the norm.

In fairness he's dead fcuking right,people are numbified and dumbified by capitalism here.

I know I was supposed to be outraged by some random strangers opinion... But instead I'll add to it.


When you want to fcuk over the Irish people. You don't take them on they can fight. No, You sit back relax and wait, they will fight each other. The tactic of many English general.

The recent stand up to the government is proof of that. The people themselves that were also being screwed over, turning a blind eye to the obvious corruption ,instead taking it upon themselves to create some deformed logic of how it makes sense to accept it,while slowly eroding any will to not take it any more.

In some countries white coller criminals and corrupt politicians go to jail. Here we have Treads about how mean it is that the poor fellas get heckled in the street.

Makes a lot of sense. The abusiveness of the text is whats kinda puts a damper on some good points. I do think the abuse is to get your heckles up and then make the point "this is what the government thinks of you". Another point to make is that in the Netherlands, their society and infrastructure works. Going from that to our bull**** would piss you off. The fact that there's so much vitriol in the post must mean he likes the place. Subtext: Ireland, great place but get your **** together......?

Or else the appeal to peoples patriotic/nationalistic side usually in a speech like this:

" were all going to have to tighten our belts for a while but we know the Irish people as a nation call pull through this and come out stronger than ever"

Ie: johnny taxpayer is going to have to foot the bill for our gambling debts

Its amazing the way people fall for this,I've seen this trotted out on boards numerous times.

If the Dutch were running Ireland it would be the market garden of Europe. If the Irish were running the Netherlands it would be under water.

The only anti Englishness in Donegal comes from the three men and a dog loony groups like the one running that site and on-the-run blow-ins, don't tar us with your naive, widely off target brush. That Dutch fella ain't living here anyway, if he did he would get his eyes opened.

If you want to meet a dutch racist ask any dutch person about the arabs in their country

Depends on the sterling rate.

Just like the many's a visitor from the south of the country who floundered in choppy waters thinking they were on safe ground to sing rebel songs in Donegal pubs, making assumptions can get you a shock! It's different up here folks.

Wasn't there an American hipster idiot that did this not so long ago aswell? She was traumatised with the coffee and wifi and lost her **** on a blog.
