So one of the biggest Far right accounts that consistently lies and pushes fake narratives about immigration in Ireland, including this AI slop yesterday, is not Irish and some Brit based in the UK

  1. I feel like a lot of the far right accounts aren’t actually based in Ireland, but stir stuff up from different places. Sometimes US, UK.

    St Patrick wasn’t even Irish, too, yet here the racists are, fine with celebrating St Patrick’s Day, but not accepting other cultures.

    while I don’t disagree with you, I think the person who runs this particular account is from the north, so is Irish, and is based in Northern Ireland, which Twitter classifies as UK. Doesn’t take from the fact that the person who runs this account is an absolute c**t.

    And behind that uk source – Probably Ivan in his troll farm in Burkina Faso

    Aren’t st Patrick day parades always a bit multi cultural, like the Dublin parade has had Chinese dragon performances etc. I don’t see why there is uproar this year.

  5. Imagine a Brit being up in arms about Irish people losing their identity 😂😭. Meanwhile the brits in the north lose their head over the Irish language being on road signs.

    Getting uppity about flags is likely a Northern Ireland account. This would show as UK.

  7. A lot of these accounts are using VPN’s as well so their location will show up as being different

  8. “Real news”

    Put it in the same bin as the “Real IRA”

    About as intelligent as the average dissident too.

    Is there confirmation that these apps get country corect? Remember Irish IP addresses are very often confused with the UK unless that’s changed in recent years. That’s why you can watch iPlayer without being told you’re not in the UK… and why I can watch RTE player by using a UK proxy from outside Ireland.

    Haha multicultural blob, omg. Multiculturalism is amazing, and other people celebrating their country or identity doesn’t diminish yours. It’s such a sad selfish view these people have on life. Of course this is just used for rage bait here

  11. I don’t understand why X can’t just be banned in Ireland.

    The amount of revenue it brings to the state is not worth the negatives the shit stain of a site brings to society. It’s clearly being used as a weapon for instability from foreign players.

    How is that not reason enough to just say nah we’re not going to use this in our country anymore.

  12. Given the fact that the UK and Ireland by mutual treaty form a Common Travel Area, it could be anyone, with either British or Irish citizenship, or with dual Nationality, living somewhere within the CTA. Take your pick.

    They’re very heavy on the cultural erosion stuff. They’ve a load of different phrases for it now. I know a guy at work that has let it slip a few times. And would you believe he’s the guy that has no softness to his manner whatsoever, he has a clear disdain for anyone who’s not a “grafter” and his whole team is morphing into 40 year old men as attrition takes out his other staff. Some real smart juniors left because he wouldn’t listen to their ideas. He’s very forceful on discipline and he thinks everything should be done in a regimented style. He always pushes the limits on what people will take or accept and he views himself as an alpha. He tests boundaries and uses his self styled macho image to prevent pushback. If you stand up in front of him and tell him exactly what you don’t like he shuts up and puts his eyes down, like a bitch. I have done this to him several times. So he tries to undermine me when he can now, but can’t directly confront me. They’re all like that. Even the MMA ones.

    Those flags have always been there tho. It’s not AI slope, but the lad controlling the account needs to fact check first.

    Least surprising thing I’ve ever heard. The far right here won’t care that he’s British, as long as he’s a dirty fascist like them they can look past the people that actually invaded Ireland and would love to still have full control of us
