I remember seeing a post on r/agedlikemilk which theorised that Russell Brand was leaning more into right wing talking points in anticipation of the looming rape accusations being made public.

I wonder if the same thing is happening here.

And nobody actually cares. You’d expect protests whenever something like this comes out? You’d expect people to at least kick up a stink. But, no move on to the next thing. Kinda sad how little outrage there actually is to this shit. Heck, even the general attitude towards this facf from the comments here is “shrugs Well what did you expect”.

Labelling Antifa as a terrorist group is basically admitting you are a fascist.

Yeah. Keep in mind there is a cold war of sorts in the middle east with Iran and Saudi Arabia and because of that Palestinians have become a Iran coded issue meaning countries allied with Saudi Arabia aren’t taking on the cause anymore.

The funny thing is Varadkar is trying desperately to be a neutral as possible but the Israeli government is literally making it impossible. They are trying to get him to take a more hardline pro zionist stance but there’s very little zionist political power in Ireland. He knows he’ll lose lots of voters if he takes a zionist stance. Israel can’t do shit.

Knee jerk reactions get the best of people. It’s funny how the average Irish person is extremely pro Palestinian yet reacted the same way the average Israeli did after the October 7th attack.

Drew Harris and Helen McEntee need to be removed from their positions ASAP or else there will be a next time and it will be worse. Pretty dang scary just how many people are buying into alt-right ideology in this country.

Leader of the Gardai (Irish police) . This is a massive event in my country.

Tbf in my humble opinion the Philippines still holds the all time election L for voting in a dictators son over a human rights lawyer.

Lmfao you jinxed me by a couple of minutes lol.

We could be seeing this soon tbh. Not that encourage it.

No. Because the paintings are protected by glass.

The planet is literally dying. A painting ain’t worth shit in the grand scheme of things. This has always been a popular tactic for protests the article mentioned the suffragettes doing the exact same thing to the exact same painting.

Because art gets them more publicity. Also if they are going around smashing car windows then they are liable to thousands in fines due to criminal damage, turn the general public against them even more so than they already are and it will likely legitimise tough laws being created against this group.

Boggles my mind how in the late 80s how much the Filipino had to do to get his dad out of power only for them to vote in his son (who has the exact same name as him) out of nostalgia for the good olde days.

What you describe as “voluntary” homelessness sounds to me like the devastating physiological effects of drug addiction.

If most people are not ok with this then explain why the tories have such a death grip on the electorate. Most people in the UK will just shrug their shoulders few will actually have the balls to say they support this. These same people are outraged with Corbyn doesn’t sing God save the queen but are alright with literally making giving homeless people tents illegal. Try to suggest any social programme and grandpa will break out the fucking abacus but fuck the homeless I guess.

Yeah. The fact that so many people are ok with this mask off cruelty is astonishing. No one sees the connection between the cost of living and sky high rents leading to an increase in homelessness. No one sees until they are on the streets themselves.

Yeah. Seeing tons of people claiming the vote was too vague and that people wouldn’t understand while also clearly understanding what this amendment was and what it’s implications are has been pretty odd to say the least

If you want to defeat Hamas the best way to go about it is to give Palestinians rights and agency over their land. Invading the Gaza will only make Hamas stronger. Once their homeland is gone they will always come back, they will never forget and they’ll want revenge against any country that remotely assisted Isrsel.
