    You're possibly conflating multiple personality disorder with schizophrenia

    He may well have a mental health issue - most genius minds do.

    To be fair, if you're running multiple online social media accounts, it's probably not very easy to remember which "personality" you assigned to which character.

    Having such a limited intellect spread over so many accounts must have been a problem. :) But then weren't the all saying much the same stuff?

    There was the threat of legal action(s) that requested that Twitter disclose the details of account ownership. Now there are multiple actions apparently under way.

    Regards...jmcc
    Any indications when these (or any related) actions may see the light of day?

    He is not a genius. He's a nasty little waffler who has been caught running his own troll factory. (Surely a genius wouldn't have been caught?)

    Oh the thoughts, a troll factory!

    Not sure. But from the press releases published online, they seem serious.

    I think Harris seems to have some mental health issues. I'd be reluctant to speak on him too much. I hope he finds peace.

    I get so tired of mental health issues being blamed for things. They don't make you a nice or not nice person. They can cause difficult behaviours but it's not normally long term vindictive bullying stuff. That's just a bully.

    It's played as a get out of jail free card way to much, passing off being an obnoxious Oaf as being mental health issues is quite frankly bullcrap,

    Neither hysterical or bitchy.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Not wanting to sound like some sort of a prude here, but that article is the very definition of objectifying women.
    I mean, Clare Daly is an elected politician, and he dedicates a full article in a national newspaper to her appearance and sexual relationship ?

    (At least he put his name to it I suppose !)

    Exactly. He has form in mysogyny.

    And does a huge disservice to people who are trying to be advocates for mental health by being open about their own struggles.

    Where to for Mr. Harris, would you care to guess where his genius will take his arc now?

    The man has terminal cancer. But he can look back on a life well spent, protecting this State from malign and sinister forces.

    Puzzling that Mick Clifford would choose to retweet an article about Martina Anderson having a go at SF, and say absolutely nothing about the Ballymurphy inquest the day the ruling is made.

    No he can't. He done the complete opposite in fact. Putting pressure on those trying to negotiate the GFA. He's a small minded man that's overly privileged because he hates republicans and was platformed by like minded snobs to spread bile from the safety of his desk. He's anti republican in a republic. It doesn't get more moronic really. Hopefully he knows all this deep down.

    Goodnight Eoghan Harris indeed.

    FF had to form a coalition with the Greens in 2007 and FG had a particularly useless leader. Cowen's bullying helped get FF more seats than it would have otherwise won. Ahern resigned in disgrace. As for Robinson, she only got elected on Currie's transfers and Harris's part in her campaign has been vastly overstated (mainly by Harris himself). It was a student with a tape recorder who arguably made Robinson president.

    Harris’ greatest trick was convincing Jaysci there of his ingenuity LOL

    Like John Hume?

    100% He absolutely destroyed John Hume who was regarded across all political viewpoints as being a fundamentally decent man trying to do his best in a horrible situation.

    That scummer Harris and his disgusting allies Ruth Dudley Edwards and Ellis O Hanlon nearly destroyed Hume.

    They talked a lot of nonsense about him. Anyone with any sense knows Harris et al for the scum that he and they are and has zero respect for him

    Anyone who calls someone who had troll twitter accounts and was caught is not a GENIUS. Anyone who says so, is lying or trolling. I wouldnt entertain them

    So the anti monarchists in the UK (and elsewhere where they have monarchies) are also as moronic as it gets?

    Is Harris anti republican? (I genuinely didn't know this)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,412 ✭✭✭jmcc


    Seems that a third legal action is being taken against Harris:

    Even if there was merit in any of those cases which I doubt any objective person will find there is, there's a good chance Harris will be dead before those Sinn Fein-sympathising journalists (or others who feel they are victims) get their money.

    If they are awarded compensation by a court what would be the cause for pleasure that they do not receive it because Harris has died ?(let us hope he does not and that his health recovers)

    I am awaiting these court cases (if they happen) in order to cast more light on what is now public business.

    if the are awarded money and he dies the money will be taken from his estate.
