Irish language signs at Ulster University make it a 'cold house for unionists' the same way vegetarian options make restaurants a 'cold house for meat-eaters.' They don't. #AchtAnois

Mad how Ireland has developed a "thin blue line" police-worshipping political culture practically overnight, all because of one tweet

Round of applause for @SimonHarrisTD at #AGSI23 when he says “Gardaí should never be brought into a game of political football in a Tweet.”

Ha, imagine walking down Grafton Street and just seething at the "state control and imposition of rules". Pedestrianisation is woke now -_-

It's crazy to watch a generation that grew up in a free country clamour for more and more state control and imposition of rules. The only world they can tolerate is one that fits their view. Their ideologies. Their rules.

This 100%. To paraphrase Billy Connolly, 'up the ra' doesn't mean 'I support the IRA', 'up the ra' means 'up the ra'.
Danny Morrison (@molloy1916) profile pictureDanny Morrison@molloy191612 Oct 2022
'Up The Ra', once limited to IRA supporters, has not only entered youth culture, but will now enter the mainstream lexicon as a mantra for bucking established authority, expressing rebellion and, in a separate sense, as a visceral expression of tiumph over misfortune.

Replying to @nicole_gernon
When asked if he wanted to consider his position and purge his contempt now by giving an undertaking not to attend the school, he said he didn't as: "to purge my contempt would be to hold my Christian beliefs in contempt"

If you posted a thumbs up under Stephen Donnelly's tweets a few months back, you're a domestic terrorist.

The vitriol and polarisation that fuel the social media juggernaut have real world consequences. If you’re condemning the rabble outside Leo Varadkar’s house and simultaneously joining the pile-ons against politicians here, wake up - you’re part of the problem.
Big lol at all the gombeens across the country who vote for independents, only for most of them to side with the government time and time again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #NoConfidenceCoveney

I get that libs/centrists will never really grasp the significance of Merkel's insistence on brutal austerity after the crash, but Merkel isn't even a liberal! She was against same-sex marriage, but this is conveniently ignored just because she's a #girlboss

Níor cheart ... Gaeilge a úsáid ... ar chomharthaí ... i mBaile Átha Cliath??? Ba cheart le 'cultural appropriation' a chur ar an liosta céanna le 'gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss.'

Just passed the latest Wetherspoons on Camden Street with “Teach Tábhairne” written under it. The term cultural appropriation is bandied about a lot, but this cap fits snugly. 🤬

Shannon Aer Lingus closure happens under govt's watch, but it's the fault of opposition for calling for something that never even happened? Wonder who he holds responsible for all the pubs and restaurants closing down?
