Some of the conversations I've both heard and seen have been so painfully ignorant to the point of offensive despite you all thinking you are making well intentioned comparisons.
Just stick to core facts (days, conditions, result)

I feel it necessary to say to specifically left wing Brits. If making comparisons to Bobby Sands etc regarding the hunger strikes please keep it purely to the conditions and time scales.
Your knowledge of Irish history and its politics is as awful as the rest of the British political spectrum.

I really think this is not as big a story as it should be. We are in kick-them-out-of-the-UN territory

Wrote about the nitrates derogation in this week's Mayo News. Seeing FGers claiming it as a victory turned my stomach.

Support for the ban is at 73% among the public, opposition is at 12%. But lobbyists for vested interests trump that.

Disappointingly after great campaigning the Dáil has voted down a Bill to ban fox hunting.
This barbaric, cruel, colonial practice will continue for now.
But the campaign against it will grow. The will of the people will ultimately be heard and we will succeed in stopping it.

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

One of the group chats I’m in is convinced that the tell a man is normal and well adjusted in 2025 is if he owns and uses a toilet brush, and this started as a bit but at this point I’m basically convinced that it’s true

At some stage ye’ll start to realise that SF are centrist everymen.
If you want things to change wrt to housing, healthcare etc then vote for actual left wing parties and drag the Overton window left. Force the bigger parties to lose votes because they are playing status quo politics.
