National Party and Barrett only able to hold their fascist demo because the police are protecting them.
Justin Barret is speak-shouting in his first holy communion suit. Says there is a 0.000391% chance of dying from Covid19.

Keeps repeating the number to all the masked men present.

Homophobic slurs flying out of his mouth that if said in a pub, he'd be put on his back.
"We have nothing to fear but fear itself" says the leader of the NP.

In the middle of a global pandemic.

#LetIrelandLive
But public order units running at anti fascists, protecting Barrett and the thugs who turned up to beat the shit out of people the last few weeks.

Same policing tactics, just heavier.

This fash propaganda wouldn't happen otherwise.

#letirelandlive
Barrett making racist jokes about Dublin Lord Mayor from a platform to loud laughter and applause

But sure, this demo is about state policy and Covid

#LetIrelandLive

This guy is a fash scumbag and should be treated as such.

Again all this is facilitated by the cops.
So here is Barrett laughing about how he can't joke about murdering Michael Martin, because it might be taken up wrong.

This is all in front of our faces

#letirelandlive
Barrett jokes about the Luftwaffe.

Yeah its entirely normal for a normal political org in 2020 to drop in-jokes about the aerial warfare branch of the Wehrmacht during World War II.

Will RTE broadcast interview they have with Barrett earlier, but not this?

#LetIrelandLive
Barrett "I want to collaborate with Gardai" "There is the rise of the far right, thats us, and it will be worse than Covid"

I'm sure he does, because with the racist, homophobic hate he is been spouting, he won't get out of Dublin without their protection.

#LetIrelandLIve
#LetIrelandLive yas just a demo about anti mask so Billy Boy here turns up to join in like he's in the UVF

Fashy behaviour bro.
Look there's Croft in the background with another lad in British Army camo gear.

It's like there is a theme emerging with the fash
Lot of masked up anti maskers
#Letirelandlive
Croft, fash masked up mates, and....hmm I'm not sure what the fuck this is?

A fash alien?

#LetIrelandLive
The NP Files.

#LetIrelandLive
Look who turned up today to support the fash

Michael Quinn.

Has a bit of recent history.

Likes hitting people on the head with wood.

#letirelandlive
Worth saying as anti fascists left the area today after running the fash out of town, diners at The Ivy applauded.

Which was nice

However The Ivy itself still steals it's worker's tips

Which isn't nice and The Ivy should cop on.

#UpTheWorkers
#LetIrelandLive
Also worth saying this was set up as a media spectacle.

For what reason I'm not sure exactly.

But this isn't an accident.
Statement from AFA Ireland about today.

A few points here.
These are violence and death threat posted on SM yesterday by fascists. This is not abnormal at this stage.

I choose to do some of this work identifably. Others prefer otherwise for lots of reasons. Those choices take precedent over on demand media access. ImageImageImage
When we take the security of individuals seriously, or desire of people to not engage with media, it's normal that people filming will be asked about it. There are very real security risks for us. They take priority over unthinkingly speaking politely to everyone with a camera.
Do I support journalists feeling threatened? No.

Would I like journalist to be aware of the dynamics in these situations? Yes

Would I like the framing of yesterday to not be dullard horseshoe 'anti fascism is as bad as fascism'? That's not in my gift.

1/ MINI THREAD: Its easy to look at the wing nut reactionaries who have gracefully rolled into a rabbit hole, and who delight in the micro-celebrity that comes with that. Such as being aghast at Una McGurk and her power over peoples lives.
2/ But a media-cycle reaction doesnt address the structural nature of problems of IPAT or - pulling back to the wider picture - the entire process around state protection.
3/ Or pulling back further, the political and institutional forces which over time have shaped Ireland's response to both international obligations and the less technocractic concept of solidarity with people(s) seeking protection.

Far right Twitter accounts using the vicious stabbing in #Carrigaline should be understood for what it is.

The NP, Croft and multitude faceless Twitter crew actually *want* a 'race war' based on the import of US far right ideas. It's part of their strategy. Don't fall for it.
THREAD

The first Tweet to use the #Carrigaline hashtag in relation to a vicious stabbing incident was this account

twitter.com/nevertoolat8 at 1:48AM.

It was in reply to this account IRISHPOWER2
As we can see IRISHPOWER2 is a protected account. Imagery is a sniper rifle and a KEK/Pepe the frog symbol in bio.

#AggregateIQ is suspended from Facebook for snooping and storing peoples data. It held almost one million records including home address, telephone numbers and email addresses. Its was the sister company of Cambridge Analytica

Now being paid by Gript Media to snoop on you.
To clarify, perhaps 'snooping'isn't isnt the best phrase here.

Lets take a look at what #AggregateIQ have done in the past, which might make suggestions about what happening here:

Rule one: Follow the money
In 2016, #AggregateIQ were paid by the Democratic Unionist Party UP up north for targetted Brexit related adverts. The DUP paid for didnt target DUP voters.
They ran ads in a different country than where the DUP actually run themselves.

So @john_mcguirk and @rowanwcroft are working hand in first trying to stir up racial tensions in Carrickmacross. Might come as no surprise the Catholic homophobic ex-British soldier will find common cause with Catholic fundementalists at Gript.

Some observations 1/
So who shares Mc Guirk and Gripts stuff?
It's certainly instructive to look at who us sharing in on Twitter just as it comes out.

And surprise it conspiracy accounts and far right accounts.
Tagged are the fascists with Justin Barrett, Croft etc.
Ok I'll try to not get derailed but for the record, McGuirk first accuses me of saying "facts are racist"
Ive set out what this thread is about in my reply. It's about suggesting intention by looking at who's sharing and RT etc. Il get back to that soon but first 3/
