Tralee thread

The festival is going to go Transgender next year. Give it a couple of years and it will be the gay equivalent of Eurovision.

The world has gone mad

Read the first 6 words of this and got far too excited to think ROG was coming back to Munster!! 😀

Please don’t spread false news in a further negative manner. The festival has never been closed to transgender women, it has just been clarified that it is possible along with the actual factual changes of married women being allowed and the age increase.

Really annoys me when people don’t fact check before posting false news.

You know what they say about people who assume rather than dealing in actual facts.

Ireland was the first country in the world to legalise gay marriage by public vote. What are you on about?

Personally have no interest in the festival, just sick of people posting false narratives and facts that are easily checked. It’s the world we live in.

Nollag shona daoibh! Athbhlian fe mhaise daoibhse chomh maith!

Is Gaelinne Mumhain e!

(and if I had fada's on my keyboard, it'd be more accurate!)

Mate you don’t deal in facts, you are bluffing. 18 countries out of 44 in Europe have legal gay marriage. We were 12th to do so but did it by vote democratically which is not a bad thing. There are only approx 30 countries in the whole world that are legal. I would say that’s progressive in world wide terms. So look up there at your first line and admit you told a lie!

You failed to reply on your incorrect assumption of course which again was non factual. So your two statements of fact are both not true. You bluff your way through with half truths and lies with such confidence that you think you are right and convince other idiots they are right too.

You can hold any opinion to want to but don’t go stating that we were one of the last to legalise gay marriage and that the Rose of Tralee wouldn’t allow transgender contestants when that is completely untrue.

I didn’t once make any factual claim on abortion legalisation as there were none offered that were true or untrue. If you post a true fact on the matter or an individual opinion then no bother. But if you want to post another half truth I have no bother calling it out as that.Personally my opinion is that it should be legalised but I am not attaching a fact to that here so it’s irrelevant.

Lastly, Ireland is a good place overall. We have some bad people, bad and terrible situations that should never have happened. Imagine what it’s like waking up in China or Nigeria or Palestine or or or……… the United States the world leader who has had legal abortion since 1973. This is the country that allows people to walk around with guns.Their legalisation of abortion didn’t advance them much. We will advance forward much faster as a country if people like you, our politicians, some journalists etc start telling the factual truth rather than agenda driven truth.

Happy Christmas 🎅

I see a new Asian restaurant TOBA is opening in the old Croí/Stonehouse restaurant at corner of the Square. They have a restaurant in Killarney already. Nice to see that place occupied again!

I would recommend that you might contact the County Council. Perhaps you are a priority on account of your disability, and I think they would be your best option. Their numbers are 066 7183809/066 7183572. Good luck, and I hope you will find something suitable soon.
