Special Rapporteur for action plan against racism announced

Thank god Ebun Joseph exists to tell us how awful we are.....

I'd find it difficult to take someone seriously when they resort to an ad hominem attack based on race rather rather the merits or facts of an issue, epecially when they had their facts wrong.

Did Ebun protest against racism in Nigeria - any record of involvement from her at all????

Nigerians and Nigerian society is notorious in Africa for racism against non Nigerians.

Ask non Nigerian Africans about it - it is shockingly racist there.

There has been awful racist language and violence against non Nigerians, Asians, white people over many years.

Also - huge tensions between various tribes and religions in Nigeria - hardline Islam in the north, numerous Christian groups, and then we also have “native” Nigerian religions/cults. All at each other’s throats.

Often resulting in violent riots and fatalities.

Levels of ferocity far higher than anything experienced in this country.

Very very corrupt country also - from the bin man in the dump to the highest levels of politics.

Racism in Nigeria is FAR worse than Ireland or indeed much of the developed world.

A chaotic, lawless country in which racist views and racist violence flourishes - Shame on them for allowing this.

So much so, Ebun as a strong Nigerian woman with a loud voice, extremely demanding tone and academic credentials of some sort, would be FAR better utilised in her home country than trying to insult and create false narratives here in Ireland.

Ebun can be a role model and standard bearer to hold the many in Nigerian society who hold racist views to account.

Ebun is basically as stable as Gemma O'Doherty. Just hysterically rants about the opposite side of the coin.

The appointment could only be a paody.

THe fact that I haven't seen anybody here support this appointment speaks volumes about this appointment.

Besides one person trying to get a reaction like all threads they post in, I think its safe to say nobody can give a positive reason for this appointment.

And presumably anyone who objects to this nonsense is part of the 'far right' according to RTE, Irish Times etc. I

Give it a break, stop dividing us you racist. And stop pestering me. There is no ingrained racism in Ireland, not in the society and not at institutional level.

This exactly, I don't understand the lack of accountability of the politicians.

All this international obligations b***** that MM constantly spouted which has since been proven to be downright lies.

How he can look his kids and grandkids in the eye is beyond me.

Simple questions

Whats the plan ?

What's the expected outcome ?

All this bend the knee and white privilege, Ireland was never a colonial power, we were oppressed not the oppressor.

So I don't get how we owe an apology for being white and existing.

Appointments like this do more damage to an already precarious situation.

If people come into this country and don't like it they can always return from wence they came.

Unfortunately dont see too many doing this.

Soft touch paddy with unlimited pockets led by clowns.

We have no money for SNAs, scoliosis surgery, care of the elderly but can take in chancers from half the globe and shower them with goodies and wonder why they keep coming and setting up tent cities on our streets.

The mind boggles at the incompetence, do they all think they can run and hide to Brussels? Main protagonists will no doubt, but the drones will be left to explain.

If she is concerned about racism in society, and wants to “campaign” against it -there’s an open goal waiting for her in her native Nigeria - she can go over and be a role model for literally millions of Nigerian girls and women.

Or has she turned her back on her own native people?

I hope it’s not some sort of bias on Ebun’s part?

Could it turn out that she is the most racist of all??

I think we all know what the SoJus playbook looks like and how Ebun Joseph plays the game…

Another thing Ebun said on Six-One news was that victims of racism suffer health problems as a consequence.

Adding a laugh track makes it bearable!

Yep, it's not even the woeful appointment that should be the focus of ire, it's the actual PLAN.

I really mean it when I say her appointment is meant to mask any probing of what the PLAN contains and how batsh1t it really is!

We owe her something:

Like any other black race grifter he's both racist against the whites she chose to live with, and patronizing and victimizing black people.

Probably gonna be edited out now but it's still quite funny because it's true.
