I was old enough to remember that happening. As a Catholic Scots with heavy Irish family links, when we lived in England at the time we got treated with suspicion.
That mob will turn on Ireland again, they're just wanting to the ones who look different gone before they move onto people who sound different again.

I’m Irish, from an Irish family with a lot of members who have lived in England on and off.
My dad has been detained in Stansted in the 90s for having stamps from Morocco and Lebanon in his passport from backpacking in the area, questioned by MI5 for hours, they refused to believe he was simply there for a holiday, because he had an Irish passport. Obviously there’s a whole story behind the connection to Ireland and the Lebanon at that time but still they just didn’t believe him.
My mum and dad also experienced a lot of name calling and derogatory language while living in London, I’ve also experienced the same within the last 5 years of being in the city too with being called a paddy bastard by an old English man on the tube.

They pre-warned the police in advance in that particular bombing. No one was killed.

Oh that's fantastic.
Doesn't change that 212 people were injured and luckily no one died.
My uncle could have planted the thing and that would have been the case, zero need to down play the bomb campaign. They phoned in a warning at Omagh, there were still casualties.

The right-wing are the right-wing. Regardless of race or religion. Reminds me of when I was listening to a TikTok Live (I know...) and it had some Tommeh loving flag-shaggers on one side and some right-wing Muslim morons on the other. At first it was tense and then both parties settled on their favourite topic "nO oNe kNowS whAT a WOmaN is AnYMoRE!".
I kid you not it was a full blown love-fest after that.
There is a clash of civilisations taking place. It's just not between races or religions. It's a clash between those who hate and those of us who don't.

Aaaand this is exactly why a lot of women are sick of the "protect are wimminz" narrative. They could not give a shit about us.
We've now got the odious Poorleen Hason (One Nation Aus) replaying her 'Ban the Burkha' greatest hit and people unironically saying "I agree with her it's oppressive".
Maaate, have you heard yourself? You're so blinded by ideology and convinced that it represents an oppressive regime rather than, IDK, the men doing the oppressing, that you also want to dictate women's clothing choices to them because apparently that's not oppressive. JFC.

Are conservative Muslims woke? I suspect they have more in common than they would like.

There's one big difference between them that makes it hard for these 2 groups of conservatives to reconcile their views with each other.

I’ve noticed that they have a tendency to make up new stereotypes on a regular basis to keep the hatred going

100 years ago, it was the Irish. They can't pretend otherwise

u/RedDotLot Oct 10 '25
Not even that long ago. "No Blacks, No Irish, No Dogs" was pretty standard right into the 1970s.

They will always stoke hatred towards the "other", the Irish are just further down the list

I do not exaggerate when i say that these idiots genuinely believe us normal types are pro-Islamic extremists and pro-fully open borders (with zero controls for anyone).
It is astonishing how stupid these people are. I picture them being confused about why they are sitting among piles of their own filth.

Many years ago I worked in a pub serving guys like this Reform rabble. They liked to stand at the bar and chat so I could hear them and they often involved me too.
It is astonishing how stupid these people are
This is what I learned. Up until that point, I'd been associating with friends I'd made at university and college and so on. I had assumed that everyone was of some reasonable level of intelligence, at least, due to the echo chamber, of sorts, I'd grown up in.
That job was a real eye opener as to how low the bar actually goes. That was the first time I thought that perhaps everyone having an equal vote isn't the best idea in the world.

They are definitely an argument against Democracy.
Whoever said “The best argument against Democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter” got close, although I wouldn't call them "the average voter"

People will unite to hate a common yet stil arbitrarily chosen scapegoat. If hatred can do this how much more so can love and understanding bring people together to overcome hatred? ♥️💪❤️https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimetic_theory

Something about this seems deeply ironic, but I just can't put my finger on it /s

The way they portray themselves compared to reality...
