"The IRA are commies!" It's not that simple. The IRB (Irish Republican Brotherhood, founded 1858) was this fraternal order of revolutionaries in Ireland that acted like a secret society because they saw the public movements of earlier Irish rebellions, and decided a clandestine approach was the way to go. At the same time in the USA the Fenian Brotherhood was founded by Irish immigrants, their aim was to help organize military actions in Ireland, as well as act as a place where exiled republicans could escape to. The two groups put together the Fenian uprising of 1867, which fails. But the IRB survives. I’m really simplifying this era because this will be long enough without getting into every rebellion since 1641 or whatever. Fast forward to 1913 and the Irish Volunteers are formed, many of the key leadership in the very beginning were IRB men or would later join the IRB. The Irish Volunteer force was a citizens militia formed in response to the formation of the Ulster volunteer force in 1912, a loyalist militia. At the same time (1913) The Irish Citizen Army first formed in Dublin to defend the picket lines and street demonstrations of the Irish Transport and General Workers' Union. Its founder, James Connolly, was a Marxist and also founded Ireland's first socialist party, The Irish Socialist Republican Party. Both the IRB and ICA started smuggling in guns and planning independent uprisings at the same time basically, but with two different motivations. Now we need to get to some very important names. First, Tom Clarke. He joined the IRB back in 1878, did 15 years for the fenian dynamite campaign, moved to America after, then back to Ireland where he resumed with the IRB and began mentoring/working with the new generation of republicans which included Bulmer Hobson, Denis McCullough, Seán Mac Diarmada, and later, he was the one who brought Paidraig Pearse into the IRB. This generation would be the ones who would go on to do the Easter Rising. Tom Clarke was even the one who arranged the American connection which was used to procure the weapons for the rising due to his time there earlier in his life. So by 1916 Connolly and the ICA were gaining traction and had procured arms, as had the volunteers. The IRB leadership saw that Connolly was becoming increasingly agitated, and that the ICA might would do an armed uprising that would bring down the force of the British authorities prematurely. So the IRB brought Connolly into the IRB military committee. Connolly would be one of the signers of the Proclamation of the Republic because of this, and the ICA was absorbed essentially after 1916. Now, Pearse and Connolly never really publically had it out or anything like that, however Pearse was critical of socialism as were many of the IRB members. In Pearse own words - "I am nothing so new-fangled as a socialist or a syndicalist. I am old-fashioned enough to be both a Catholic and a Nationalist." Their alliance with Connolly was a pragmatic one. The Easter Rising happens in 1916, the war of independence begins, and in 1919 the Dail formally recognized this combined group of the volunteer force, the ICA, and the Cumann na mBan as the army of the Irish republic, or, the IRA. The war wages until 1921 and the Anglo Irish treaty. Here things get even more complicated. On the Irish side you had two competing groups, pro-treaty and anti-treaty, which were both comprised of: - Traditional Republicans - Workers republic Connollyites - Catholic corportists (often forgotten about in education and media, I wonder why...) These two sides fought a civil war from 1922 - 1923, and they never really addressed the ideological differences that they all had even after the civil war ended, the focus was on anti-treaty vs pro-treaty. In 1932 Army Comrades Association, better known as "The Blueshirts" was founded by Edward Cronin and led by men like Eoin O'Duffy, who was a member of the volunteers before even 1916. This group was anti-communist, they were throwing up romans and all. This organization was comprised mostly of IRA veterans, as the name suggests. In 1934 the Republican congress (a congress which tried to bring together various republican groups) split as there was an attempt by Peadar O'Donnell and Frank Ryan, as well as some others, to push Irish republicanism toward socialism. Many republicans rejected it and there was a major schism, by 1936 the congress was gone. In roughly 1942 Ailtirí na hAiséirghe was a Fascist party in Ireland founded by Gearóid Ó Cuinneagáin who was not an IRA member himself, but many important figures who joined Ailtirí na hAiséirghe were very prominent in the IRA. Gearóid Ó Broin was a confirmed member and was a member of the IRA army council, Tarlach Ó huid who co-founded Irish Republican Radio, and Tomás Ó Dubhghaill who was an IRA adjutant general. All IRA men, completely different places on the ideological spectrum. But In the wake of WW2, authoritarian ideas were ostracised throughout Europe. On top of that, many republicans were imprisoned in 1940 for the duration of the war due to fear of the IRA and Germany potentially colluding. Similar to how Mosley and many BUF members were imprisoned in Britain. This left Ireland with traditional republicans, and leftist republicans, the third option was forcefully suppressed as it was all over the West post WW2. The IRA was quiet for a few years, until 1956 with the border campaign named operation harvest. Aimed at ending the partition of Northern Ireland by galvanizing the public and creating a renewed armed struggle. This lasted until 1962 and was a largely rural operation where the IRA lost 19 members and the RUC lost 10, civilians were killed also. It was a major failure and got almost no support. This was led by the old leadership of the IRA, comprised mainly of traditionalists. Tony Magan, Seán Cronin, and Ruairí Ó Brádaigh. This would also be the last IRA operation led by these traditionalists. Cathal Goulding marked a major turning point. He was a lifelong IRA member who was born in 1923. He went to prison from 1950-1959 for stealing a load of guns. During his time in prison he befriended a Soviet spy named Karl Fuchs who was in there for selling secrets he learned from his time at Los Alamos laboratory, where he worked on the Manhattan project. This is probably when Cathal got very interested in the Russian Revolution. By 1962 Cathal succeeded Ruairí Ó Brádaigh as IRA chief of staff, and undertook an organization wide effort to change the direction of things. He wanted to stop reliance on armed struggle, and opted for class struggle through things like social and economic resistance, along with more active engagement with politics. They did shit like "fish-ins" where they would fish private lakes and rivers to stick it to the landowners. 1969 marked another major IRA split. That year saw massive sectarian violence. A few examples being the battle of the Bogside in Derry which was a 3 day long battle between the RUC and thousands of Nationalists in Derry. Then in Belfast, 7 civilians were wounded and hundreds of homes were burned. Cathal refused to give arms to units in these areas fearing causing escalation, many traditionalist leaders heavily disagreed with this decision. They blamed Cathal and the socialist leadership for being impotent and prioritizing their political aspirations over defense of local communities. This caused the Belfast Brigade to defect and formally stop taking direction from the current leadership. The Andersonstown Republican Club was by IRA man Seamus Twomey and was directly opposed to Goulding policies. Many republican groups, especially in Derry, sided with the Belfast side against socialist leadership. They argued that the new generation had studied Marx, but had "forgotten to buy rifles." This is where things start getting really messy. In 1970 the Provisional IRA was formed. It was led by the old traditionalists like Ruairí Ó Brádaigh, Seán Mac Stíofáin, and Dáithí Ó Conaill. This IRA believed in prioritising armed struggle over politics, community defense at a local level, and National Liberation. The other IRA led by Cathal became known as the Official IRA. In 1974 Seamus Costello leaves the Official IRA and creates INLA (Irish National Liberation Army) and the IRSP (Irish Republican Socialist party). Essentially, they were Marxists just like the officials, but they thought that armed struggle was the way forward, just like the Provos. Then you have Abstentionism and the 1986 split. Sinn Fein (under the leadership of Gerry Adams) voted to end abstentionism in the Dail, and that was incredibly major for a few reasons that I'm not going to get into here. Essentially it was seen as a betrayal of republican doctrine going back to 1922. So Ruairí Ó Brádaigh and his supporters leave, and form Republican Sinn Fein, along with the CIRA, the continuity IRA. 1994 comes around and a ceasefire agreement is reached. Michael McKevitt did not like this along with many other republicans, thinking that Gerry Adams abandoned armed struggle, they formed the "Real IRA". Their position was that the peace process itself was betrayal. The real IRA then does the 1998 Omagh bombing and kills 29 civilians, this causes public outrage and a massive loss in support for armed conflict. From there in 2012 the New IRA forms which is comprised of Real IRA groups, RAAD (republican action against drugs, formed in 2008), and other smaller groups. Technically the continuity IRA has not disbanded to this day either. So anyway, the shit isn't that simple. Nor does it really matter when it comes to the demographic replacement we are facing across all of our nations, we can talk about all this later.

There has been almost 2x as many Black on White knife homicides in the USA in the past 10 years compared to White on Black. This is TOTAL stabbing homicides, not even per capita.

Enoch Powell gave this speech on immigration in the house of commons back in 1980. Just listen to how they scoff at his points, as if he was speaking nonsense.
