This is still up. Methinks evidence would want to be given quick. https://twitter.com/MaryButlerTD/status/1445101201691922432?s=19
There's only one Cillian working for SF in the Oireachtas. Hence why that Cillian was asked.

You'd have to wonder why the tweet was deleted, my own guess would be it was a good "idea" at the time, but the fantastical tweet spiralled out of control, and SF party members asked for the email address so they could apprehend or sanction "Cillian". Panic stations all around and so tweet deleted.
A fib that spiralled out of control perhaps?
The tweet just said Cillian. How was it insinuating anyone.
The original tweet/claim by FF is deleted now. The person they were insinuating it was is now looking for anwers.

The post is deleted now it seems. It was on the morning of the 3rd by a poster called Relax Brah. I quoted it and reported it. My quote is gone too. Are we getting to the stage where we have to screenshot posts?
Any link to the post and was it reported to the mods? we have all sorts going on recently on boards, dummy accounts getting created to resemble other users, dummy accounts getting created to throw abuse at users etc, accounts been created in the names of TD's and of partners of TD's.
If someone did that then take it up with them
I think you will find its the same online people at this for years, hence why you have SF coming out numerous times in the past telling online supporters to cop on. Long before the election in 2020.
The swing vote in 2020 have nothing to do with any of this, because of the sudden support for SF we now have these people who think they have a bigger platform so have moved up the stakes, as I said, they won't be happy till some nut jobs kills a TD. Then SF might review what the f**k is going on.

What post was that now? Link?
They probably begin and end with him not existing except in cllr Keith's imagination.
I think Cillian has issues.
And what about the post in here two days ago calling Sinn Fein voters low IQ, scum and the party terrorists? Was liked also. What do you think of abuse by FFG supporters like that?
This is the comment from one TD from Sinn Fein..
If Cillian from SF exists (I can't find anyone who fits the bill in the description, so I'm very curious as to what position he holds, whether it came from a SF email account or whether it is a possible nom de plume), then the email and the person responsible deserves nothing but derision. That type of rhetoric has no place in civilised politics.
That being said, going on from that to some scenario you've completely invented.....well no, that doesn't, 'say it all' about SF....it says nothing at all, you just made it up!
I'd like to see the party make some official comment on this allegation; if they decide to just ignore it, you might have a better point to make suggesting THAT says it all about SF.
Cillian from SF should be fired, but he will probably be promoted. Says it all about SF.
You are guilty of FF/FG spin. Was a lad on here calling SF voters scum the other day and he got some 'thanks'. Exceptions to the rule?
Trying to claim people who voted FG or FF are now somehow blaggards because they voted SF this time, is sour grape bullshit.
It’s not hard to imagine, it’s about the standard of most online chat from SF fans on Twitter and Facebook. Seems like the usual stuff
The TD is right, why would someone want to follow a life of politics with the carry on from SF supporters? It’s a disgrace.
is that the height of " evidence " ? ff councillor claims they are getting abusive emails from some fella called cillian ? for all we know that councillor might be telling lies , hes from ff after all , who are going to be devoured by the shinners at the next election .
i get the feeling youd not swallow the story as unquestionably had the roles been reversed ?
I am not a fan of Dev, but one thing I do admire about him (in common with Leo Varadkar) is that he kept us out of WW11, saving thousands of lives. Bear in mind that over a 1000 people were killed in a bombing in Belfast. Hempel personally called on Dev to apologise for bombing the North Strand. Staying out of the war meant that GB had a plentiful supply of food, not to mention the Irish spying on the Germans and having one of the most successful code breakers who Dev had hired and authorised to supply info to the Allies.

Fair comment 😎
I'm sure they've proof and have informed the the proper personnel...right?
Wonder if the SF employee looks after any social media accounts for them too. Seems like a lovely individual
Off topic to be discussing Dev, who was a fraudster and cheat. Ripping off Irish the world over under the guise of patriotism.
And I'm very sorry but you can't hand wave away giving condolences for Hilter's death as some form of diplomacy. Likely he felt obliged because we were pals with the Nazis all through the war.
This actually sums up very well the problem you can't seem to get over. People did things in different times for different reasons. You try excuse the ones you like and demonise the ones you don't like.
Your assumptions aside we have different views and that's fine with me.
Well to be fair, my assumption would be (going by your posts) that you might be what I would describe as "Fine Gael stock" so it's hardly surprising you would seek to legitimise Collins fight against the British, while simultaneously fail to do so for the more recent troubles. That's all part and parcel of the hypocrisy of our state, a state built on revolution and uprisings by the way.
I see little difference in the cause and aims of either.
Indeed but you did make a point of mentioning 'the British establishment ' of which Churchill was certainly a member.
You and others no doubt see no distinction between Collins and the PIRA but I do and I've made my reason(s) clear.
You could also say both Tony Blair and John Major had similarly zero issues dealing with the IRA post ceasefire, pre ceasefire too if some reports are to be believed.
I think the main point is, if posters have been on this site insisting "all violence was wrong" for years now, there's no handwaving away the IRAs actions for them, whether under Collins era or the troubles in the north era. It was either wrong or it was not.
You lied claiming the man was involved in taking that man out of hospital. No amount of unrelated links will cover that.
Victim using for your own gain again.
I'm sure the 'British establishment of the day' would have 'begged to differ' on a lot of matters but it should be noted that no less a figure than Winston Churchill had no problem dealing on convivial terms with Collins only a couple of years later.
No trumps. They don't cancel each other out. Do you think Herr Cosgrave stumbled onto the stage and was pointing at a passing plane with all fingers, not knowing he was at a fascist rally?
Campaigning against the GFA so much you join an organisation opposed to it is a dalliance now?
Two rather hilarious stretches or reality there.
