I asked Chat GPT to write me a hallmark Christmas movie, but set it in inner city Dublin and make the male character a right wing anti-immigration activist and the female character a People Before Profit newly elected TD.

Many people think immigration happening on larger scale than is really the case
The report by the ESRI found that many people overestimated the proportion of people in Ireland who were born in another country.

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.
Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

People living in UK - especially GB - should not be thinking 'at least we're not as bad as America,' when Northern Ireland exists and civilians were being shot by state forces there for decades, and recent governments have given those forces amnesty. @grantsana.bsky.social leading bsky voice here.

This is Tony Benn in 2009 appealing for Gaza aid and speaking about the hypocrisy and bias of the BBC.
One of Tony Benn’s finest moments a man who spoke truth with heart.

Could we please stop pretending that the flags being hung from streetlamps or painted on roundabouts are innocent expressions of patriotic pride? This is the far right marking out its territory. It uses these flags to intimidate its traditional victims and opponents. 🧵1/3

The decision to put Boyne in the centre of this reporting (rather than the less-established authors who taking a principled stand and a financial hit) is a strange kind of journalism.

John Boyne says LGBTQ+ fiction prize backlash brought him ‘close to the edge’
Gender critical novelist urges writers to reenter prize they boycotted and may ask judges not to shortlist his novella

Ten authors and two judges withdrew from the Polari prize and more than 800 writers and publishing industry workers signed a petition calling on Polari to remove Boyne’s novella Earth from its longlist. Continue reading...

Spare a thought for the IDF today. They were out all day yesterday shooting innocent people trying to get bags of flour, and when they got home they had to find out the heartbreaking news that some people at Glastonbury don't like them. That cannot be good for your mental health.

It's so obvious why Clinton has endorsed Cuomo...the Zio overlords have told him to. All that Epstein blackmail will continue to have mileage for many years to come. Couldn't be having a pro-Palestine mayor.

Attacking ambulances, executing medics, then tossing their bodies in a mass grave.
If Hamas had committed this crime, it would trigger deafening global outrage.

It should be obvious by now that Netanyahu won't stop until every Palestinian in #Gaza (and perhaps the West Bank) has been murdered, maimed or expelled. He wants it all. Governments like ours should cut off all military equipment, diplomatic support and other relations until the genocide ends.
