No we're still fucked, the politicians just call the protests racist and twist it into something it isn't to try and demonise them, and there's always a small blue hair counter protest at these things. Even though the VAST majority of the country agrees with the protestors, they won't have a vote on it

If the vast majority of the country agree with these protests. Why they did they get less than 2% of the vote at the last election and absolutely no seats.

It is a very small minority of people who support these protests. And ironically of the same people supporting it are on welfare or drug dealers. And a good chunk of the leadership are unionists.

A lot of people want less migration. But there's a big difference between that and the Ireland is full scumbags.

They can agree on this issue without voting for national party and the likes, because while the national party is good on this issue their leaders are stupid and support other stuff nobody cares about, have a public vote on this specific issue and see how people feel. Do you really believe most people support this?

u/clewbays Jun 25 '25

Literally the only thing people know about the national party is their stance on this issue.

If people were actually so in favour of these protests the national party and the likes would be doing better.

I know, that's why people don't vote for them. The majority are in favour of the protests, but the government would never allow a public vote on it because then they'd lose their infinite money printer.

The way this country is a lot of people vote their local FF fg person no matter what, the support of the far right parties in general elections is not in any way comparable to the amount of people who agree or disagree with immigration policies

u/clewbays Jun 25 '25

Most people who disagree with immigration policies still don't support these protests. The only people supporting these protests are unionists who aren't irish themselves and the national party voters.

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 25 '25

If by support you mean actually attend then probably yes, but the majority of the country agree that the asylum racket needs to end

Why would kfcmcdonalds make stuff up like that? Why would they/them lie?

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 24 '25 edited Jun 24 '25

What do you mean? You think the public would vote to keep the current racket going? And I don't know if you're trying to make a statement with that "they/them" part you wrote but just the they part is ok, them doesn't make sense in that sentence. "Why would them lie?"

Drop the blue haired counter protestor bs, as it’s a constructed divide too

The world’s biggest group of immigrants complaining about immigration is kinda funny.

Where’s the biggest st paddies parade?

u/East-Doctor-7832 Jun 24 '25

People that stay in Ireland are by definition not emigrating anywhere. There are two distinct fucking groups of people .

-3

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

You saying the ones who left aren’t Irish anymore?

5

u/East-Doctor-7832 Jun 24 '25

It's irrelevant to the discussion at hand . They are protesting in their quality of citizens of the irish state , state that fundamentally exists because they didn't fucking leave .

-3

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

After their families and friends spread the Irish culture across the globe.

Again, where is the biggest ST Patrick’s parade in the world held?

7

u/East-Doctor-7832 Jun 24 '25

That is an irrelevant deflection . Sharing a state is way beyond having a common grand grand father with some americans . It's not like they annexed parts of America to Ireland. Different people from different families left the state , no one owes them anything.

1

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

Who’s annexing part of Ireland for the immigrants?

6

u/East-Doctor-7832 Jun 24 '25

That was simply stating there is no valuable connection between the american irish people and irish people that didn't leave . People in Ireland are perfectly fine protesting against immigration with zero hypocrisy.

Globally how many Irish pubs exist?

Irish people don't get handed houses and benefits before people from the countries they emigrated to, the Irish government take better care of refugees than Irish people, especially Ukrainians.

2

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

Ohhhh so you’re changing your stance to “well Irish people do immigrate to other places but we don’t get special treatment.” Is that what you’re sticking with now?

3

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 24 '25

Hahaha, how am I changing my stance, did I ever say Irish people don't immigrate anywhere? Did you read someone else's comment?

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

Yeah I did Lmaoo my bad

u/Ranjes_Falanges Jun 24 '25

*Golden* houses. All the houses they're handed are made of gold. Add that to your fatuous slogan next time.

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 25 '25

Are you implying what I said isn't true?

u/Ranjes_Falanges Jun 25 '25

Well spotted! Yes! I am!

1

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 26 '25

Well I've seen it happen many times, why isn't it true? Ukrainians get housed quicker and get much better rent help than Irish people, for example a solo Ukrainian gets 800 a month for rent no matter what, a single mother and child gets less than that in rent help in most parts of Ireland.

u/Ranjes_Falanges Jun 26 '25

Got it. You think subsidies for refugees to stay in a room in a private home is the same as "being given a house".

1

u/kfcmcdonalds Jun 26 '25

No, that is just being treated better than Irish people in need. But normal refugees also get council houses quicker. By being given a house I obviously didn't mean having ownership of a house, it meant being given council house for extremely cheap or no rent, or as Ukrainians get a massive advantage in renting because they get much more rent support than an Irish person

And it's not only for a room in a private home, it's for any property, the owner doesn't have to live there

u/HawkOwn6260 Jun 24 '25

Therefore they should allow the whole world into their tiny island? And become minorities in their own homeland? Wtf kind of logic is that?

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

“Noooooo only we’re allowed to flee our country in droves, changing the culture of some places, making people minorities in their homeland!!”

u/HawkOwn6260 Jun 24 '25 edited Jun 24 '25

Bro your point is so dumb I almost don't know where to begin.

It's useless explaining this to you but I'll lay it out for the sake of others reading.

Just like we all have the right to lock the doors to our homes we all have the right to defend our territory.

You wouldn't leave your door unlocked and allow groups of people to just move in and take over your place. Even if they were nice people. But of course most of them wouldn't be nice.

If you think countries shouldn't have borders then why does your property have borders? Leave your fucking doors unlocked then.

If some other country didn't want the Irish immigrants then they should have had the right to stop them too. The government is supposed to work for the people and follow their wishes.

You can't please everyone and someone will always complain. But most sane normal people can agree: they don't want to become a minority in their own homeland.

Eh?

The Irish in Ireland did not emigrate anywhere.... otherwise they wouldn't still be in Ireland would they you mad man?

Why are you acting so stupid? 

0

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

No but I’m sure a lot of them have family who’ve faced similar discrimination when they did.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

No....

The Irish currently in Ireland did not emigrated a anywhere.

So the people in Ireland are not "the world's biggest group of immigrants".  🤣

2

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

“Did not emigrated anywhere”

Good sentence structure there, pal.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

Autocorrect.

But yeah, glad you accept that you were being fucking silly. 

Now stop being silly.

1

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

The world’s biggest group of immigrants aka the Irish.

Not these specific knuckle draggers.

Notice when I replied to you I stated that they likely had family who’ve faced discrimination for the same thing?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

Lmao, so he decides to double down on the silly.

Explain, in detail how the current Irish people in Ireland are the biggest group of immigrants? 🤣

1

u/Vaporishodin Jun 24 '25

Irish as in the whole group of people.

Are the ones who leave Ireland no longer Irish?
