    Yeah, people are sick of getting ridden left right and center by ff and fg therefore they are alt-right.

    What a statement.

    who are these online SF fans that are 'using the same machinery as the alt right groups etc'?

    What? You dont have anything to back that up? In that case I say you are talking bollocks. Point us out a few of these people so we can ask them.

    There are similarities to your viewpoint to Ron Akinson's views that he 'over apologised'. For calling Marcel Desailly (a black football player) "a lazy fúcking nígger". He like Cullinane did not realise that those outside his circle would hear what was said.

    Going back to the recent Mary Lou interview on the Late Late. She fared well on her discussion about covid19. It humanised her as a politician. Mary Lou even gave the caretaker government a back handed compliment about thier handling of the covid19. It was only the darker specter of republicanism that let her down. Trying to defend the indefensible and getting tied up in knots.

    I believe she said her reaction to Cullinane was 'What are you at David?'. Which to me was code for don't let the mask slip outside our circle. We need to go mainstream and you could ruin it.

    Interestingly at the time of the David Cullinane speech. A 'neutral observer' from PBP Boyd-Barrett described it as harmless 'Republican Nostalgia'.
    I thought this was good phrase. As there are many who vote SF because of the background mystic of the 'armed struggle'. To be part of the 'gang'.

    Cullinane is definitely a representative of a certain type of SF voter in that sense. It is the same nostalgic view Ron Akinson has of his use of certain type of language and even views himself as one who gave blacks 'a chance' because he signed black players.

    There's no parallel there at all. Hilarious that his thread keeps rumbling on. The result of that election sure did rattle the opposition and they've been rattling away ever since :pac:

    It only rattles on as the Shinnerbots are programmed to keep kicking it back into life. Part of the great grand electoral UI strategy, the ongoing war, ballot box instead of the gun etc. Get elected, get elected, get elected, get elected...

    Thread was started 20 March, nothing really has changed

    SF is no closer to getting into government. Which in my opinion is a pity as I would prefer to see them in now than listening to 5 years of "change" etc.

    Some people seem to thin SF will resolve all the issues, so they will all have less tax to pay and somehow everyone else will pay it, plus a new house or rent-free accommodation. That is never going to happen I hate to tell you.

    I think, personal opinion, supporters of other parties seem a little more realistic in what a government can actually achieve.

    Hence why I would like to see SF get in, I think people will quickly find Mary Lou and the rest quickly back tracking on the "manifesto" and blaming FF/FG or anyone as to why they can not deliver.

    At this stage I expect 5 years of "Well SF would have done XYZ" but with zero back up from anyone if they could ever do it. By the looks of it will SF even in 5 years time be in a position to actually win more votes? if so then need to go on a serious hiring campaign for politicians. If the likes of Voilet etc continue as they have started they will still be seen as party not really capable of stepping up to run a country....

    Today's theme: This thread is boring and offers no substance so let's fill pages with ridicule and guff.

    Has anyone got an actual opinion on the article I posted?

    It appears to be buried in a sea of crap.

    You already said that several times, and you will never say anything different that that about Sinn fein unless until there comes a time that your party might coalesce with them if the results panned out that way. You're an FG fanboy and you've been all over this thread from that perspective from the beginning.

    If the numbers stacked up in a different way and FG were going into government with SF, there'd be a similar thread to this about FF and you'd be all over that one as well.

    So once a person has beliefs they are OK to continue?

    Racists have their beliefs. They can offend but once they apologise that's grand according to you.

    Sure continue.

    As you were.

    Leo has beliefs, doesn't stop you ranting every day about him.

    You are more confused than Scooby Doo.
    What are you talking about racists for?

    SF online supporters group urges members not to share news articles to prevent media from making money from clicks. Instead they should copy content from the articles and distribute for free.

    A nasty way for SF supporters to give the big bad media a kicking when they are already on the floor.

    Interesting that SF claimed it had nothing to do with the online group yet the group immediately changed one of it's rules when told to do so by SF HQ.

    https://www.businesspost.ie/sinn-fein-disavows-advice-on-media-from-supporters-group-21a007e2

    What or who is this online supporter's group Colonel? I mean, even a cursory glance on Facebook gives numerous Sinn Fein referenced groups, seen one earlier called " Friends of Sinn Fein - Canada"

    Besides, "the big bad media" was certainly no shrinking violet regarding the shinners in the run up to the election, I don't think they owe them too many favours.

    What was this rule though?

    Lots of groups (from all sides of the political spectrum) on the net are full of dicks, doxing goes on and what not, I'm interested in hearing more about the nature of this rule change, and why you think the group adhering to the shinners request is conspiracy theory territory, some things are just common sense. The don't be a dick rule on boards for example.

    I've been adhering to the social distancing measures and the non essential travel advice Leo and Simon dished out, am I now a FG member?

    Twilight zone music.
