I was called a bogger in Dublin once.

i am getting the feeling that racism in Ireland is mainly the wearing down, ignorant disparaging putdown remark kind.
I don't think that is acceptable whatsoever but I don't hear much of physical attacks - at least on Duffy's show.

My mother’s hippy sister and her hippy husband, extremely woke people born in 1920s, wanted to adopt a black child at one stage when their eldest was 17, and my parents were very racist in discouraging them as they were worried everyone would think that the child would be taken as their eldest’s progeny,.

Urban Dictionary:

There are 6 Irish Accents (in Slang)

- Dubs (Persons from Dublin)
- Culchies (Persons from the West of Ireland / Connacht)
- Mulldoons (Persons from the South of Ireland / Munster)
- Boggers (Persons from Mid and South Leinster
- Mullaghs (Persons from North Leinster, & Border Counties)
- Nordies (Persons Northern Ireland / Ulster)

If we actually had a worldwide cure to stop some people being assholes then Joe would be out of a job

Isn’t “Dame Street” now politically incorrect or at least un-woke and discriminates against persons of gender fluidity?

The racist story is bad in fairness, but being honest everyone needs to put on extra armour and prepare for things to turn violent when out in dublin city, if it's not a racial aspect theyl abuse you on itl be something else
