Continuing to spread your vile agenda I see.
CDS for me was always an irrelevant and somewhat moderate party. Only politician who had some influence was Paulo Portas. Chega is clearly dangerous in my opinion. Specially when PSD has such inept and uncharismatic leadership. Racists are all emboldened now.
Enough off topic anyways.
Sensible yes
Horrendous.
But how is it well known throughout the country? How do people know this is going on if there's no data? Or is there data?
He’s on Ignore…
Look at those far right Canada goose scooter riding scumbag drug dealers using a tragic event like this to try fuel their stupid agenda. Same jobless wankshafts who block the m50 or Eastwall claiming the country is full at 4pm while people who actually work (including many foreign nationals) are stuck in traffic because of them. Scrotes.

Twitter is full of shit cnut youths attacking Garda all over the place setting fire to anything in sight.
When has any foreign immigrant been able to do that in Ireland? That’s a wild claim. You’ll need some solid evidence to back it up. Which should be available.
I’ll let slide for now your notion that only immigrants to Ireland (and never emigrants from Ireland) would travel in search of a free ride. That’s another wild claim but harder to prove/disprove.
I disagree, I think those people setting fire to police cars look like fine upstanding citizens. The backbone of any credible first world country.
Irish politics is in a really dangerous place. We’ve only ever had 2 parties in power and they had to form a coalition to stay in power last time round. They aren’t going to bad mouth each other since the polls clearly show they’ll need each other next time round so pointing out flaws and mistakes from the other party is really taking away votes from themselves. Thats why we’ve had a few scandals which normally sees the TD thrown out or stood down but can’t because it means losing the majority.
There’s literally no accountability these days with their only option attacking Sinn Fein who have never been in power and are quick to libel them using their trusted news sources and are presently trying to change the laws to enable libel because Sinn Fein are having to take so many to court over it. Never mind it was the same government who tightened libel laws because they weren’t fond of the coverage they were getting during the banking crises.
How the feck can you blame the ills of the country on a party that has never been in power?
Our Taoiseach and Taniste have both been claiming we need to get on top of the migrant crisis and we need this and that despite them being the source of all these problems. They’re positioning themselves away from being in power and are acting as some other force who needs to come in and clean this mess up.
How can government who have only ever been in power fight back? By attacking SF with what ifs and oh that wouldn’t work as if saying this mess is so large not even you can fix it so why would they vote for you? If you lower that tax then how to you make up the deficit..who said good governance was about who could make the most out of its own people?
I’m not even a SF man and it’s a bit of a rant but it won’t take much for another party to rise up in a decade or 2 to pick up all of the fecked off voters getting gaslighted and talked down to. SF themselves were nowhere 7 years ago and look at them now.
There’s so many voters frustrated that they’re not being heard that the far right can piggy back that with their own agendas wrapped in. We really aren’t that far away to seeing an attempt at least.
Are you serious?This is absolutely related to the situation. Open your eyes. People in Dublin are rioting, they're angry.
I'm just adding to the conversation. None of this is conspiracy. It's the fall out from the tragic stabbing from today.
Just pipe down and stop insulting everyone.
Given the conduct of that poster in the Israel thread are you surprised?
E-scooters are bad enough but now there's going to be a plague of Canada goose powered scooters. God help us all
Oh the old classic, your countrymen are of course so special, work faring contributors.
Those from elsewhere, benefits leeches.
Christ, kicking off
Man, this is horrendous and utterly depressing.
And FFG piss about wondering why Garda numbers keep falling off while these cnuts with 300 convictions stay out of our over crowded prisons time and time again.
I walked right past the area about an hour ago, and lived right there for seven years until quite recently. I can tell you the young guys rioting there are local dickheads just taking advantage of the situation to wreak a bit a havoc they can laugh about later.

Now a bus on fire. Great set of racist lads.

“People in Dublin”
ah yes clearly from those videos we can see that those rioting are the normal, hard working every day folk of Dublin.
Looks bad on Twitter. Fascinating what triggers these kind of events. Most of those rioting probably contribute nothing to society but are moaning about freeloading immigrants.
Shops being looted now and streets blocked off. Looks like we’re getting our own version of the London 2012 riots.
This has been coming since March 2020.
Professor Aidan Regan used to run a very good podcast out of UCD. He had someone on discussing the rise of the far right in other countries, Brexit etc, and compared that to Ireland. He talked about the grassroots GAA being an important institution that had slowed it, as well as SF taking up votes from the demographic the far right would typically target.
Of course, if SF get into power and these problems continue, might their supporters who aren’t inherently left wing get disillusioned and switch…
Yeah. Dublin City centre has turned into a fecking shithole and that part of it is the worst.
I'm totally ignorant in Irish politic matters, can you please tell me why?
Jet2 will probably have a bunch of the same people on the next flight over.
Hopefully the victims make a full recovery.
Homelessness and drug use went up massively in the city centre of Dublin during Covid, as did local gangs and young pieces of shit, due to the lack of any real Garda presence during the lockdown. It never really recovered. Streets like that one (Parnell) are full of the sort of scrotes you see in those videos. They’ve just been looking for any excuse to act like cnuts.
Feral scummy youth who couldn't give a feck about stabbings or any right wing rhetoric (they couldn't even spell rhetoric). It's just an excuse for them to wreck shit, loot some stuff and share it on Snapchat later.
That fecking clown of a justice minister should be fecked out in the morning for allowing it to get to a point where they feel they can be this brazen.

Thanks, mate.
I posted in the Israel Palestine Thread about why looking to Europe for advice is a terrible idea because we are idiots. Much of what you have said, the Dutch election, what's happening in Sweden, the posts from Sly (Portugal) and so on all support what I've been thinking.
The far right gaining traction is entirely the fault of incompetence and ignorance. Valid concerns about the true public costs of taking immigrants in, backed up with soaring costs and people being unable to even survive in their own countries is the fault of both the governments and the near fanatical support they have who seemingly exist only to act as attack dogs for these Parties.
When will people learn that dismissing someone's concerns will lead them towards people who will listen? Especially when they see their concerns play out in front of them. What begins as a fairly reasonable concern gets hijacked by the far right and becomes something darker. If only the people who could, actually answered their concerns eh?
Would you mind taking your post and starting a thread? I'll copy my reply over and delete this so it can get back to the real story.
Good news is that two of the three children will seemingly be okay, with one of them having been discharged from the hospital. Hopefully the other two victims will be okay too.
Not a problem
On thing is Covid fueled the creation and subsequent growth of a permanently aggrieved, conspiratorial protesting class who move from issue to issue with little coherence but lots of pent up anger.
Another thing is Covid really changed the atmosphere of Dublin's city centre. Dublin is a little different from most other capitals I've experienced in that the traditional working-class inner city areas are located extremely close to the central commercial and tourist areas - in fact they overlap in many places, and many people - "native" Dubs, migrants, yuppies, etc. - live together right in the centre of town. Pre-Covid this created quite a nice diverse vibrant mix, but with the lock-downs the worst element of the traditional working-class communities - basically comprised of the type of bored, troubled teenagers in the 12-17 age group that you see running amok in these videos - kind of took over the streets while everyone else - bar the homeless/drug addicted - stayed in. I was living and working right there during that period and had a couple of moments where I felt unsafe in my own city for the first time in my life.
Finally, the Garda are extremely demoralized and understaffed. There is next to nothing they can do to seriously punish the youngfellas who rack up dozens or even hundreds of convictions before the age of 18, and many have moved on to other careers since 2020.
You're amplifying a conspiracy theorist. I have no idea why you're being protected on this forum, you should have been banned 100 times over.
