Georgia's Foreign Agent Law

'Surprised this is getting so much coverage in our state media'

Links to a BBC article

Honestly could give a toss about's what's going on there, only domestic. Not Ireland's problem.

Yes there is.

This story is news all over Europe tonight.

The Ireland for the Irish crowd just want a right wing white ethno state like Russia have. Georgia are protesting because they want to be part of the EU, and this law has been enacted due to Russian influence in Georgia.

Anything is better than this free spirited woke democratic nonsense we're living in to be fair.

I was listening to this on Drive time and to be honest I was surprised by the line the presenter was taking, being dead set against it. Seemingly it will curtail pro European groups over there, or that's the fear.

And the reason I was surprised is because if it were proposed here you can be sure that the likes of RTE would be all for it because of foreign actors spreading disinformation. I suspect foreign money pushing an agenda is only a problem when they push the wrong message.

on the broader scale of things we should be very interested in what is happening in Georgia. It probably turn out to be a repeat of The Maiden in Ukraine and where all that is playing out in UKr at this very moment. If we think that the whole attitude of Russia towards world domination, world peace, nuclear prolification, objective of being most powerful nation, interference in in world economic , social, cultural affairs , etc, etc, etc have had/ is having/ will have no effect on US IRISH then what’s going on in Tbilisi should have no interest for us.

I have some premium tin foil you may be interested in purchasing.

all these anti-ukraine irish weirdos on twitter etc. think they'd be happier in a russian style society where diversity doesn't exist and you get the sh*t kicked out of you for being gay. they're just miserable people who think woke is the reason their lives are terrible.

Thanks for the warning comrade.

I suppose unless they are trying make the case pro EU messages will now be blocked cause of this law?

It would be no harm to have such a law making sure every group has to declare who is funding them and by how much, far too much interfering by NGOs and charities of all political persuasions IMO.
