The NGO Grift and the Coming Hyper-Inflation and Economic Collapse

MyLove4Satan

Will there still be money for promoting tampons to ten year old boys and putting up Greta Thunberg posters in every classroom when money is needed to keep the lights on and off-set hyper-inflation impacts on life and existence of Irish people?

Personally I think the Irish political establishment (politicians, bureaucracies, mainstream media, tech types etc) are just about psychotic enough that they will make sure there is plenty of funding for Drag Queen Storytime when the parents of the same kindergarten children can barely afford to feed them. The NGOs have become to Ireland today what the Catholic Church was in the 50s. The new parish collection while the citizens are told to obedient. No one is allowed to say "no" to the grift.

No, these things are signs of a decadent society, ripe for a fall

Never mind the NGOs, it’s the tech giants you need to be concerned about. They’ve got this whole neoliberal thing going where they have all these projects for addressing the world’s “problems” at the superficial level, making themselves look good and make money, while trying to bypass established institutions and hard-won wisdom in the process.

Example: Uber paints itself as this great liberator, bypassing oppressive legislation and corrupt trade unions to make their drivers masters of their own destiny, but - as they are finding out - taxi industries are unionised and regulated for very good reasons. If you want people to work for you and do exactly what you want, that comes at a price: they’re not free agents then, they’re employees.

Despite the interest rate rises and inflation stories, issues that actually matter to the public, RTE chose to run with a Syrian refugee not getting his 'entitlements' soon enough. Apparently even though the fighting stopped where Hussan lived he was still afraid so travelled to Ireland from Syria 6 months ago. There was an interview with him, with the Migrant Rights Council of Ireland and of course, that Chancer Lucky from MASI piddling and moaning that it's only Ukrainians getting special treatment when they arrive. Good old RTE, finger on the pulse of what's important to the nation, as always. Honestly, if people ain't happy there are places much much closer to home to seek asylum. Lucky should have been deported long ago, I'd love to know what his legal bills for lost appeal after lost appeal plus the cost of keeping him in DP here have cost us so far.

Like some heavily pregnant over, over long overlong overhanging fruit. The flies have even moved in and of course what happens when it falls it goes splAt. Revealing what’s really going on at its core

RTE is on a one way mission at this stage. It's been driven past the point of no return, there is no redemption now, so it may as well go woke for broke.
