Liked but not clicked on.
On that other notorious social media site, have noticed more and more instances of the "Irish people work and don't complain of discrimination when they emigrate" and "Irish were treated worse than Africans and you don't hear us complaining" far right yarns.
A fair few comments like the above coming from English and American folk who afaics, have no connections to Ireland.
And they are getting a worrying amount of likes. More and more, want to leave fb but why should fash be allowed proliferate on every social media platform and take over?
(It's one of the reasons why am over alert to the presence of bigots and wrong 'uns on urban.)
Tldr?
A virtual signalling rant. Yes!

Dublin protesters stand side-by-side with loyalist sectarian killer as mob united in hate
A convicted killer was at the front of a far-right hate protest yesterday which repeatedly accused immigrants of being killers.
www.sundayworld.com
So..here we have convicted killer
Glen Kane .. loyalist...right wing nutter...who battered a Catholic to death with planks of wood that had nails in them when he was 26...heading up a right wing March in Belfast alongside Dublin right wing nutters. A mob complaining about potential killers...led by a real sectarian killer. The irony...
"It’s unlikely the republican mob would have had any clue they were teaming up with a man who killed a Catholic, but Belfast witnessed the unthinkable as Ulster loyalists and Irish republicans united together in a festival of hate.... some of these loyalists were filmed giving Nazi salutes — were seen hugging and shaking hands with a group of protesters who had travelled from Coolock in North Dublin, where there have been violent protests over plans to house international protection applicants."
This shit gets weirder and weirder....

what I find mindboggling (pls read as 'stupid') about modern Nazis is that if Hitler had won WW2 and swept into UK / Ireland / USA do you think he would have welcomed them? Not a chance

Where are they moving them all to? Does it say?
Poor kids...they'll have made friends and settled into schools there.

Link playing up with me, now. Will try to c&p:
Social Democrats leader Holly Cairns said the actions of the Government in “uprooting people integrated in local communities at short notice with no clarity about their ultimate destination is cruel and counterproductive”.
That was after it emerged that 144 Ukrainians living in West Cork had received letters from the Department of Integration telling them they are to be relocated before the end of August with many still not knowing where they are being sent.
They include 70 refugees living in Ardnagashel, Bantry, and 37 each in Rosscarbery Convent and Scartagh House, Clonakilty.
A number of others across Co Kerry have also received similar letters including those living in Ballinskelligs, Milltown, Derrynane, and Cahirciveen.

"These families have settled in communities; they have jobs; their children are integrated in schools and have strong friendship networks," said Ms Cairns.
"The war in Ukraine is not over. If anything, it is intensifying.
These families endured huge trauma during their escape from a brutal war and local communities, all across West Cork and Kerry, have made extraordinary efforts to welcome them and help them integrate.
“Now, all of that time and effort is being obliterated by a cruel bureaucratic calculus that has scant regard for the lives, happiness and wellbeing of these people.”
However, the Department of Integration defended its actions saying it was reducing the number of contracts for Ukrainians receiving temporary protection for a number of reasons, “including a decrease in numbers needing accommodation, compliance concerns, value for money and greater oversight of the portfolio”.
It said every effort is made when moving people to keep them as local as possible but this was not always possible given the number of moves that are taking place:
The department appreciates that this is not easy for people and that moving location can be very disruptive, but at all times the department was clear that State-funded accommodation is temporary and subject to change.

The Government has defended moving hundreds of Ukrainian refugees from the communities where they have been living, saying it had always been clear the homes were temporary and subject to change.

Meanwhile, less than two weeks into Ukraine’s cross-border operation into Russia, the incursion has managed to destroy a key bridge in Russia’s Kursk region and strike a second one nearby, disrupting Russian supply routes and possibly signalling that its troops are planning to dig in.
Kyiv has been tight-lipped about the planned scope and goals of its lightning push into Russia, the largest attack on the country since the Second World War, which took the Kremlin by surprise and saw scores of villages and hundreds of prisoners fall into Ukrainian hands.
Ukraine’s commander in chief, General Oleksandr Syrskyi, claimed last week his forces had advanced across 390 square miles of the Kursk region.

krtek a houby do you reckon the English riots were kind of a copycat of the Irish riots? Obviously refuge hotels were burning in Ireland much earlier than in England. Even if people weren't so daft as to live stream it, in broad day light.

There's a crossover for sure. Irish fash has ties with English fash and the rhetoric has intensified on social media over the last few years, resulting in the arson and riots in Ireland.
Both the recent riots in England and Ireland (north and south) were sparked by stabbings and rumours of the nationality and status of the perp.
Wouldn't say it's copycat, more like it's linked.
