    Yeah, the biggest wastes of skin & oxygen on the planet are all right-wingers. Well, it sort of goes with the territory, to be fair.

    And that's why we are where we are.

    Stop giving her a voice on Ireland's most read forum (this one)
    The mods have been speaking over the last while in regards to posts which relate to Gemma O'Doherty. She's been cropping up a lot on r/Ireland lately - which has directly resulted in her twitter feed getting more followers, alongside her live streams getting a large boost in viewers. Noteably, during her last "stake-out" at Twitter HQ, the link posted on r/Ireland boosted her from about 50 live viewers, to about 400 within a very short period of time.

    The result was her live feed being full of people taking the mick out of her - and while normally any sane person would welcome the mick being taken out of a woman who spends her days bemoaning the fact that black people appear in advertisements, there's a sinister motive behind how she works.

    Any publicity - be it negative or positive - is good publicity for someone like Gemma.

    As was incredibly common during the American Media circus circuit back during 2016, a swathe of new public figures appeared, and subsisted solely off the hatred they were being fed. Publicity is publicity, and it is an extremely powerful tool in the hands of someone like Gemma, who will without any shame, feed a barrage of racism, lies, and hatred to anyone who may be within earshot.

    The classic quote on this is that while a lie is making its way around the world (such as Gemma's high-touted myths such as Vaccinations being dangerous, or "The Great Replacement"), the truth is still putting on its pants.
    We've found that with Gemma dragging in a massive amount of traffic & publicity from r/Ireland posts, we're effectively feeding the problem. Yes, our posts are always to laugh at, criticise, and even to show pity for her - but they're attention for her nonetheless. And when she's capable of using this attention to spread her own sileage mixture of lies and hatred, it's better and healthier for everyone to avoid giving her what's essentially become a public platform.

    And with all of that in mind, we've made the decision to remove any content in relation to Gemma O'Doherty moving forward.

    We wouldn't allow any other random sub user to use /r/Ireland as an advertisement ground for their anti-vaxx, or racist blogspam - and there should be no exception for someone backed up by a Twitter following.

    Note that in the event where a non-blog news source reports on Gemma, we would not remove any content in that regard. Random bull****/tweets/live streams are what we're cutting out with this, under our standard Political Agenda Spam and General Spam rules.

    Theres a thread or two that slags her off, whereas reddit seems to have far more activity by the sounds of it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,982 ✭✭✭MeMen2_MoRi_


    Never would of heard of her and her thoughts if it wasn't for boards and Reddit. The sooner these thoughts are extinguish to the realms from where they come from the better.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    Never heard of her.

    Ah she provides quality comedy tbf.

    Mentioning her can attract a few of her and then hilarity ensues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,901 ✭✭✭Augme


    Just waiting for some clown to pipe up about "what happened to freedom of speech?"....


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,623 ✭✭✭✭osarusan


    She's a useful yardstick for measuring people's stupidity on here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,573 ✭✭✭Infini


    To be honest the likes of her aka the Terminally Stupid or the Intentionally Malicious are best dealt with by being starved of oxygen on as many platforms as possible. The likes of her are cancerous idiots and deserve to be treated like the village idiot and ignore, blacklisted and boycotted as much as possible if not outright ridiculed for being wasters in general. If they banned her from here nothing of importance will have been lost.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,445 ✭✭✭Rodney Bathgate


    Presumably they will (or should) ban references to equivalent left leaning gob****es also. The likes of Fintan The Toole would be a good start.

    Why not just ban all things you disagree with?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,631 ✭✭✭Aint Eazy Being Cheezy


    G O’D, Piers Morgan, Katie Hopkins. They’re all the fcuking same.

    Is that not the point of this thread? Banning something the OP disagrees with?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,447 ✭✭✭Calhoun


    Why censor when you are much better off bringing to the light how off the wall she is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,570 ✭✭✭Ulysses Gaze


    No way should Boards.ie ban posts mentioning her.
    Best way to take her down is to ruthlessly mock her ridiculousness.

    How was Nick Griffin finally taken down? When the BBC had him on in front of a live audience and his idiotic views were exposed for the bollocks they were.

    push them further to the fringes and empower her.

    Let their madness be exposed and everyone laughs.

    **** censorship.


  • Registered Users Posts: 359 ✭✭Experience_day


    I'm actually worried for the future. The willingness of people to embrace censorship is actually a cause of concern.

    Crazy world

    banning her could be 4 star censorship.

    ie: **** censorship

    I see that lad who looks like a hobo Warren Chambers is banned off YouTube (again!). He’s a big Gemma fanboi.

    Google him. Some interesting stories with chainsaws and bbqs.

    At least his writing is researched and referenced, the basics of good journalism. I don't always agree 100% but he always has a valid point to make and hasn't been parroting out a sponsored agenda.

    I voted on the POLL not realising it didn't refer to mentioning Bishop Brennan.
    Perhaps all posts should have a mandatory I never kicked Gemma up the arse part.
