Immigration to Ireland - policies, challenges, and solutions *Read OP before posting*

If it worked that way all would be well. Those types have an amazing ability to disconnect themselves from cause and effect. They'll moan about housing all day, while ignoring one of the most obvious causes. There was a great example recently where Chu and co were out protesting against the "Ireland is full" types, all while holding signs about "housing for all". Much the same with covid policies, where the sane few warned about the economic effects of it all, and were dismissed by the usual types, the usual types who now moan about the cost of everything. We've essentially normalized literal insanity.

This scaremongering rubbish.

Firstly, we need women to have more children, the birth rate in Ireland has been decreasing for years.

Secondly, non Irish mothers doesn't equal non Irish fathers.

Thirdly, what difference does it make if a fifth of our population or even more, are not 'ethnically Irish ' is there some reason to believe that the ethnic Irish are a superior race then other ethnicities?

This is the type of sound bites that the far right spread, because it seems reasonable, like 'Ireland for the Irish ' etc. Instead of believing that everyone living in this country should be treated as equals.

There is no race superior to others. And we shouldn't ever accept a two tier society.

What? I know what they think and say, I've literally just given examples, and what they say is highly contradictory, and not something that comes from a place of any reason.

You're literally the only one calling all immigrants rapists and pedos. The desperation in your posts is so palpable.

Nope.

There is a difference between people with right wing views, and far right racists.

Many people share the view that control is needed and we are getting over loaded.

They are still not anything remotely far right or racist.

If you can't tell the difference, well that is another issue..

So is this the Great Replacement conspiracy nonsense creeping into this thread?

For those who are reading this, note that this is extreme Far Right propaganda..

Poster regd to do the same on the other thread.

There is. It is skewed far right nonsense.

I don't mind people who post their views and opinions.

What I don't like is propaganda/conspiracy theories

A false dichotomy has been created between either accepting some of the proportionately largest mass migrations in our history or a fascist far-right takeover.

There is no far right movement in Ireland *with legs* as everyone admits regardless of their politics.

Implicit in the idea that this could even happen is that the general population gets totally fed up with the normal government, which is a backhanded admission that something could be seriously out of whack somewhere.

Broadly 70-75% of ordinary joe soaps want to see large scale immigration tapered.

The remaining 25% containing big players in politics/PR/media/big investment firms/corpocracy (the latter seeking cheap labour) etc. want it to continue or increase.

Advice to the latter group:

Stop trying to scare people with "far right" scenarios. Rein it in and stop alienating ordinary people, accept that Ireland is a country with a people - not just a technocratic instrument of bureaucratic managers transferring different populations around according to some criteria.

I can't imagine being this scared of the world.

Think we need to change the thread title.
