Thanks VM for doing what RTE refuses to do

Shameful. Ireland has become a very dangerous place to live, especially cities like Dublin and Limerick. I feel so sorry for this young man. I remember feeling similar fear as a young Irish man in London in the '80 when anti-Irish feeling was running high due to the bombings. You think as a people we would have learned some very sobering lessons. Not a bit of it.

We never colonized anybody - all these arguments are bogus, sentimental, and pure status signalling - by abandoning social capital that is not even yours to abandon.
The same empire that drove Irish people abroad in search of economic opportunity is financing the mass immigration, aswell as the wars that often drive them. If you really want to be brave and revolutionary - stand up for yourself and your kin closer to home - and endure the inevitable scolding you get (and by the way, this does not necessatate hating *anyone*). Instead you are a mouthpiece for everything from Antifa to the Central Bank, thinking you're a breath of fresh air.
