    There are plenty of white supremacy groups in Ireland yes.

    I see they are established in Austria, Italy, Germany and France. Nothing to raise suspicions there at all.

    First they came for the communists. And I did nothing. Because I was not a communist.
    That, and the fact that they more than deserved it.

    They’re scumbags, ethno-nationalist racists in a hipster guise. They’ve also tried to link up with some of the violent elements of the far-right here in the various football firms. Tramps.

    They are really going to encourage Irish people to join with UK and Ireland plastered on the main heading with an .org.uk domain.
    Also it throws in the harp as if that makes it more Irish.

    Might as well have a picture of a gobsh*te with a Glasgow Celtic shirt and hat complete with the 'Eire' tattoo.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I'm going to take your lack of comment on that site as a tacit endorsement of their beliefs.

    Their message (and yours, judging by your unspoken approval) is always hilariously ignorant, insinuating that random white europeans from Britain and Ireland are the heirs to ancient Greek and Roman warrior cultures. Never mind that Romans referred to the Germanic and Celtic tribes as barbarians. And that any of their weak, feeble modern day followers would have been left to die on the side of a hill in a eugenic state like Sparta.

    Austrian leader used to be a neo nazi, but he's reformed now apparently.. for someone who is so against political corectness, is current group is very much PC and careful with what they say, whether you believe them now is another thing entirely. Still theyve managed to get themselves a lot of attention for a fringe group with a few hundred members

    There's a good few "reformed" white supremacists fronting new groups with a remarkable resemblance to white supremacist groups. I wonder what that's all about.

    Most of these groups are as bad as the neo nazi red neck types in America.

    Would this be the same far right group that whinge endlessly about identity politics while literally calling themselves the Identitarian movement?

    I am sure you have some point to make but give us a quick explanation of what is in the link as myself and many others are too lazy to follow a link that needs many’s more clicks.

    'Ethno-cultural identity' - yeah that doesn't set off enough alarm bells to fill an alpine choir. I never quite understood how people go so far down the rabbit hole of racial identity; if you want to make a case for cultural values fine, and I would have quite a bit of sympathy for that, but the idea that it has anything to do some delicate racial make-up is just absurd, esecpailly when you take even a cursory look at the history of the human race.

    This kind of puts me in mind of those people who spend a lot of time interesting in 'IQ and race' or those people who go on a lot about 'Jews and Israel' - lipstick on a pig essentially.
