Over 100 the other night marching not many without masks for candlelight vigil and all clumped together, the balloon release over 100 again clumped together nothing said,. All 3 things had in common, all held in the middle of this pandemic, only1 of the 3 the police took direct action and it was the 10 protesters outside debenhams... i think you could call that two tier policing or am i wrong?

All cheerled on by our media. Almost never a bad word about their homeland or wanting to improve it by recent arrivals or our media. Ridiculous but unsurprisingly BS from the Indo, they might as well have Justin Barret on it...... Why the media indulge these people. Blindboy is a moron.

The anti establishment stance only gets you so far. They failed to read the room and assumed the "f**k the gardai" approach would have them seen as heroes. But people saw the video and know the actual story of what happened. The general public want to feel safe in their own neighbourhoods and a feral mob behaving like that won't garner public support. The constant large gatherings going against public health guidelines also make people feel like 2nd class citizens in their own towns etc. If Coppinger had any plans to run in the next GE she might find her words and actions in last few weeks cost her votes. This was one of Brid Smiths posts. The reactions are fairly damninghttps://twitter.com/Davependo/status/1350610774956380167?s=19

Facebook tends to be full of normal people who voter rather than the mentally ill weirdos that infest Twitter.

It’s not because I’m white that I have no idea what racism she had experienced, it’s because I don’t know her, and frankly from the kind of race baiting shyte she posts, I don’t want to know her.

I was with an Asian lad one time and someone going past in a car screamed a racial expletive at him. We were just walking down the street. He shrugged it off in a way that made it clear it's something he experienced quite a few times. When I asked him he said as much. I'd have no idea of anything like that happens to him at all if I had not been walking with him that specific time.

A tiny proportion of assorted loons can, with a willing media, shape the national narrative on issues that most people in the real world would have a completely different viewpoint on. Go down your local pub (when the bastards let us back in) and listen to how many lads are discussing how we should have birthright citizenship. How we should be bringing in more people from refugee camps in Greece. How George Nkencho was murdered. How "believe women" should be the first reaction to an allegation instead of investigation, trial and conviction by a jury of ones peers based on evidence presented. How asylum seekers should be granted an immediate council house/ subsidised rental home, and to hell what this does to the housing list, the cost of rent, the people breaking their bollix to save for a home of their own. The above issues are things that, at the very most, a few thousand (and that might be generous) students, upper class types and working class unemployables who don't read The Sun et al and fancy themselves as revolutionaries/ republicans would hold. 90% plus of these people with their preferred gender pronoun in their profile bio- I would say in the general public less than 1 in 500 would be daft enough to label themselves with this shiet. Yet the mainstream media treats them as the views of the public at large, based on Twitter shares. It is little different to how a few thousand priests, nuns and community Holy Joes regulated wrongthink in Ireland from the 20's to nearly the 80's almost completely unchallenged.
