Fun With Flags! DCC Edition

Ok

Not a single flag in my area visible when I went for a run this morning.

Not Ukrainian

Not Palestinian.

Not Irish

Not anything.

It's very nice.

You should read the proclamation.

You have not a clue what you are talking about.

The Irish Republic is entitled to, and hereby claims, the allegiance of every Irishman and Irishwoman. The Republic guarantees religious and civil liberty, equal rights and equal opportunities to all its citizens, and declares its resolve to pursue the happiness and prosperity of the whole nation and of all its parts, cherishing all the children of the nation equally, and oblivious of the differences carefully fostered by an alien Government, which have divided a minority from the majority in the past.

You 'merely posted an article'!?

I must have missed the bit about knuckle draggers in the article then.

Seems all "cohorts" are allowed "at it" in here. To use your words.

I think the flags (among other functions) are a signal within society with which people tell one another that its ok to oppose immigration and the lefts narrative, that there is support for those who have good reasons for their beliefs, and that they need not fear the old tactics of name calling, accusation, labelling and cancellation. That they're not alone. And in fact are in the ascendancy.

I dont think flags are going to stop immigrants directly, but I do think they're going to help get us to a point where some will be stopped by the flag indirectly (referring to the boat immigrants). The flags in the UK are going to light a fire under the asses of people in politics to make changes to stop that utter farce of a situation. And the rest of Europe will draw inspiration.

As for your poor souls leaving behind countries in chaos, they somehow regularly manage to pass by many of the mega-cities and feasible options in neighboring countries of Africa and Asia. There is safety and there is the ideal, Europe, UK, Ireland are not here to provide the ideal. We couldnt do so if we tried. As evidenced by the fact that in recent years there have been more births in just Nigeria alone than there were in the same year for the entire European continent. Yes, really.

Two different things with some shared characteristics.

They both have Farage and they both have a sense of frustration and disenfranchisement.

Last time they aimed the frustration at Brussels. And the consequences were disappointing.

Thats not to say that this time, with a different target, the consequences wont be good.

Eu was very beneficial in a muiltitude of ways for Brits.

Mystery people invading your country not so much. I mean if they were magicaly stopped tomorrow can we name a benefit lost? (this is an easy question if talking about loss of eu membership)

Some percentage of them by necessity will be dangerous characters, so theres one benefit if they are stopped, your community will be safer.

Name one benefit of letting them continue to come in.

Defuse what?

are there that many illegally placed flags? you can always report them or take them down if its upsetting you that much.

and as for this marking territory thing, the whole concept of a country is marked bordered territory.

i have a problem with unelected goons covering my area illegally in flags, which i assume are permanent, for anti-immigration reasons yes. how is this comparable to the council hanging flags for pride, which you compared it to?

ive had to look at someones flag of their beliefs, id rather not, but i did/do each year. id rather not know about lgbtq lifestyles either way. it annoys me to have someone banging on about it.

so now you have to do the same. whats good for the goose …

if you dont like them in your area then its up to you to remove them or have them removed.

unlike lgbtq there is not some coordinated events council for irish flag putter uppers.
