    I think you should go to bed, you’re talking absolute rubbish.

    Is this possibly another deebot?

    Yes, one of the 56 nationalities of China

    Would you consider a Cornishman a Brit, or a Ulsterman a Irishman?

    Now Mam, you're playing games. The equivalent of the people of the British Isles would be a similar sized area (small) of China where there are minor regional differences but who've been in situ for millenia.

    It is not an equivalent to European settlers in China!

    (DasDog you're angry at me. Why?)

    Who are you calling Mam?

    And also, the number of local nationalities in an area of China, India, Mexico...lots of places, the geographical size of the British isles would exceed the groups here...off the top of my head, Scots, Welsh, English, Irish, Manx, Cornish, and you could break them up again and I am sure I have forgotten some

    In fairness, going on that she is proper nuts

    Poor Gemma :(

    Yes but they'd all be of the same racial makeup (you're not going to further split hairs on me surely) and not the same as European settlers in that area.

    Should I address you as Ms instead? Or just Crypto?

    What a distasteful thing to say after editing someone's post.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,368 ✭✭✭Thrashssacre


    This whole thread just needs to be nuked....

    Hysterical posters in this thread. Like fùcking two year olds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,235 ✭✭✭✭Annasopra


    Think V8 just wants to be edgy

    Nah. Just wants to pretend racism doesnt exist and pretend Gemmas hatemongering racism is perfectly reasonable.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    This whole thread just needs to be nuked....

    The main takeaway is that some people are so afraid. Afraid of everything. Afraid of life, foreigners, the media (the evil MSM), politicians, medicine (but also disease), business, television and the the truly bizarre stuff which includes anything from lego to cycle lanes to Satan.

    Its very sad that Ireland has a growing number of people like this. People becoming recluses and willingly losing friends and family because they're being easily manipulated online.

    A lot of anger and fear which is what people like Gemma rely on for a living.

    How can you tell demographics from looking at a photo?

    Was Phil Lynott Irish enough for you? Or Paul McGrath?

    Ya that's one I'm trying to work out too. You don't really get any info from a photo. Look at any photo of a school and for all you know, they're from every corner of the earth. Not that it really matters obviously.

    You are absolutely desperate for a racism angle.

    Pretty telling that you omitted the rest of their post which made an entirely relevant point...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,909 ✭✭✭CtevenSrowder

    I omitted it because they are clearly desperate to see racism everywhere, judging by reading bits and pieces of the thread and my own interaction with them. No you can't tell demographics of an area from a photo if it matters.

    I truly find the boards obsession with GOD bizarre. A complete nobody who lives rent free in your heads.

    They both had native irish mothers making them half irish. Phil lynott remarked on himself being irish-south american which is correct, mcgrath considers himself irish but put that down to his nigerian dad running off while he was still in the womb so having no experience of the culture.

    Both atleast have one have of their parents as native irish. Its a terrible trope that keeps appearing when a certain side wants to keep calling people racists

    And would you tell that from a photograph of their school class?

    GOD is one of the very very few examples of somebody actually expressing racist views in a referable manor in Ireland, her and her little group of friends make up 95% of basically all the racism in Ireland so users are obsessed with bringing her up endlessly to try and satisfy their self manifesting fears that Ireland has some sort of anti minority race problem, which of course most know is a complete fabrication

    Gemma and friends being loud and posting a lot helps to perpetuate the myth that we have a problem with anti minority racism

    No I wouldnt, anyone who said they could would be posting in bad faith, however considering there are more non white children born to non irish couples here than inter racial couples , assuming automatically that the majority/ all of the non white children in a class photo were irish would also be posting in bad faith.

    The only one who made such a claim about demographics was Gemma and her fans. Everyone else views it as entirely inappropriate and racist dogwhistles when she posted the photo. Particularly since it was shared globally by the likes of Richard Spencer and Laura Southern...

    Assuming anything about demographics from a photo would be bad faith.

    Using a school photo to stir up knuckle dragging racists would be extreme bad faith.

    Even though she was, on balance most likely correct about the class being majority non irish, she was wrong to post the photo and did so for completely racist reasons which has been rightfully condemned.

    OH no! Posted by a nobody and shared by two more nobody's. As I said, rent free.

    As you said, everyone views it as inappropriate, so why have you got your knickers in a twist over it?
