@OConnorAston @NewstalkFM Bro youre just ragebaiting at this point or are genuinely brainless. Either way you can get the attention mammy didnt give you somewhere else

The Irish Army has invested in “very sophisticated bullets” ahead of this summer’s EU Presidency, amid huge concern about the security of European leaders.

I will go with Merriam-Webster
His murder was
✔️ sudden (a revolution developed during a speech he was giving only to be intercepted and killed trying to flee)
✔️ for political reasons
And he was
✔️ a prominent political leader

@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 I do agree with that, I think calling fascism right wing economically is a bit of a misnomer due to the state take over of a lot of businesses, but it is right wing adjacent. I would like more than a binary too
English
@ah_mac @StephenMather6 A binary is not a useful indicator of anything when there are hundreds if not thousands of issues to be considered
Fascism also doesn't fit into the binary as it is third positionist. If capitalism = the right wing, corporatism isn't on the scale
English
Which is of course complete nonsense
Fianna Fáil are Republican & Centrist to Centre Left Party (sometimes slightly Centre Right depending on the issue) who represent the interests of Working & Middle Class families, the interests of rural Ireland and promote business
Aidan Regan@Aidan_Regan
Sinn Féin doesn't have an identity crisis. Fianna Fáil does. SF are a left party squeezed by the socially conservative instincts of their working-class base. Tension, yes. Confusion, no. FF haven't a clue who they are.
English
@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 Just under a right wing oligarchy rather than a left wing dictatorship yknow? Russia is right wing bc of its economic policies, Putin and Stalin could go toe to toe on nationalism for example but not economics
English
@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 Say Murphy is no Mao for example, Mao was more extreme and enacted more extreme policies than Murphy ever would, never the less both are left wing. Ones Far left, ones Left. In regards to economics Id say its the sole determining factor, like Russia is doing what the USSR did 1/2
English
@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 Yeah, and liberals are right wing. Obama, Biden, Martin, S. Harris are all right wing (capitalist) liberals with minor concessions to certain marginalised groups if it suits them. At the most extreme I would describe them as social Democrats, far from left wing like CCP or WPK
English
@ah_mac @StephenMather6 They're 'progressive big government capitalists'
They're certainly not classical liberals (laissez-faire, small gov, personal freedom)
I suppose modern liberalism fits them better, aye.

English
@ah_mac @PhilipByrn82360 @PadgeMc1 Another brainwashed f@ggystinian with unproven claims. It's not that hard to understand lads lol
English
@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 So they're liberals (centre/right wing) not leftists (far left socially and economically)
English
@ah_mac @StephenMather6 They're economically right wing (being capitalist) and socially left wing (being progressive)
I really dislike the binary of left/right being given any modicum of importance

Ireland: a mature, modern democracy so secure in its identity that it must force eight‑year‑olds to sing about rifles.

@OConnorAston @NewstalkFM Ceaușescu was assassinated, he was a good one was he?
English
@NewstalkFM 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣the corrupt leaders are never assinated, its the good leaders that all the attempts are on, so the EU so called leaders have nothing to worry about
English
@PadgeMc1 They don't, unless you think Martin McGuinness had an American accent. Or Catherine Connolly, or every single elected left wing TD. I know Americans are stupid but you're probably hearing Americans talk about Ireland, that doesnt mean theyre from here. Like you Padge the Yank
English
@PhilipByrn82360 @PadgeMc1 Why is a silly braindead f@g throwing around pdf accusations without any proof? 😆 🤣
English
@Pat1975Watty @toal_gmicko Do you have evidence for that? Because you ignored the debunking of your claim to spew that shite

Why did the Republic lose interest in Paddy McNair again?
Eimhéar Murphy@EimhearMurphy
Brian, you do realise Windsor Park is a cold house for Catholics? How can I bring my soccer-mad, blind to the division son to a Northern Ireland match knowing the hostile fan behaviour, derogatory chants and historical intimidation of Catholic players and managers could happen at any time? Why shouldn’t he be able to make his own choices and be welcome in the football team that allegedly represents where he’s from?? As long as there is a sectarian symbol used by the “national football team”, it will never be inclusive or representative.
English
@rinagaelriochta @StephenMather6 >GDP worship
>left wing
Whats it like not to have a brain
English
@StephenMather6 Most of this is completely inaccurate waffle. In modern Ireland FF/FG are entirely beholden to GDP worship & MNCs as life becomes worse and worse for the youth & working class. The middle is also squeezed & rural Ireland is very much an afterthought

@FightHypocrisy1 Marley you genuine idiot, he was highlighting that unionists claim the flag must change in a UI (nothing I am necessarily opposed to) but they cant demand that and demand the Union Jack stays as their flag, thats the hypocrisy you attributed to the author rather than the subject
