You realize Twitter isn't real life?
A couple of right wing US political commentators (with millions of followers) highlight the fact Ireland doesn't enforce its own immigration laws.
This then gets retweeted/shared/liked by a fraction of a fraction of 1% of the people who saw it.
And you use this "datapoint" to deligitimize peoples valid concerns (which BTW were shared by a sitting FF TD and European candidate yesterday)
And his comments are up in the FF website, so obviously the party (who are in Government) agree with his views to some extent

But for twitter there'd be no Jamie Bryson and I don't think there'd be the rise there is in the south either.
At least Bryson isn't hiding behind a fake name like 99.9% of the hate filled bastids on there are
When will people catch about twitter? Like I know I've umpteen posts on here, but that's my limit, of social media, when someone talks to me about what they seen on twitter or some said this on TikTok I'm immediately rolling my eyes and wanting to bash their heads in
Will Twitter and the like get worst or will it die a death?
It won't die. I do like Twitter but it can be a cesspit. I block loads of people who get in the way of important things like GAA and NBA news etc

Most importantly, pretend they care about ireland, citizens, women etc - when they dont.The far right leader tells lies to people he knows are stupid.
Most of them would be low down the IQ level and easily manipulated by a few semi intelligent but evil people.
I thought that tactic is standard across the world. People buy into that every time come elections
It would be easy to suggest that this was the core tactic of DUP and Sinn Fein to usurp SDLP and UUP, and has been a staple tactic since.
Surely both those parties cannot be far right?

It was very messy as Trimble also took them to court too I believe.

Just listening to Talkback and Trevor Birney talking about and how attacking someone like Sean Brown was a deliberate ploy as he was decent and could not be associated with any paramilitary organisation. It was purely to put fear and Terror through a whole community by striking at its centre.
We had just won the AI and had beaten Bellaghy in the Ulster final before Christmas 1996. There was a crew of us living in Belfast and we had close relationships on and off the field with a lot of the Bellaghy lads. It struck hard. I remember travelling home at the time and we regularly changed out pick up spots etc. Going to matches in Lurgan and that was always a concern as well. How the f**k was that normal?
Unfortunately we normalised it at the time and adopted
My dad handed me the book The Shankill butchers when it came out
Made me read it before I headed out that weekend, needless to say that put the willies up me for that period of heading out!
Absolutely horrible book. Really tough. I read the book called committee. Really opened my eyes as a teenager growing up.
Only policeman you trust is a dead one.
Haven't read the Shankill butchers but did read the committee.
Certain well know car dealerships at the fore.
If I remember right they have the oath taken by orange order members in the back cover too.
