Una McGurk has a new video up on the Irish Freedom Partys website. Headed by Hermann Kelly, the IFP pushes anti-migrant and anti-refugee hate

Una was this week booted off the International Protection Appeals Tribunal.

Every ITAP case she has been involved in need reexamination Image
The IFP & Kelly push the 'Great Replacement' white supremacist conspiracy theory.

This 'theory' has been used by many white supremacist mass murderers.

Brutal acts of political violence driven by, and in some cases staged for, the international white nationalist movement.
Unclear if Una McGurk endorses The Great Replacement theory as espoused by Kelly many times

Its curious she would have a video posted an organisation with such scummy worldviews in the same week she was booted off a panel looking at the cases of people seeking state protection. ImageImageImage
This seems an attempts to garner publicity for McGurk and IFP across alt-right online spaces.

In fact the video featuring posted to the IFP website less than 3 hours ago was orginally posted by Ryland Media last night before YouTube pulled it down.

State of this bullshit Image
Lots of confusion in the Telegram chats about today's anti lockdown gathering ImageImage
Conspiracy runs high in these groups. Right now worried that people are gonna make them look bad.

But 'John H' here is doing a good job of that already. ImageImage

67% of people - that's over 2/3 of respondents support current measure or want *stronger* measures right now to reduce #COVID19 in Irish society in a poll carried out by the Irish Times.

Here how the Irish Timespresents that finding in its own poll. ImageImage
This question doesn't even make sense and contains false equivalents.

- 'Living with Covid strategy' is not the same as 'getting back to normal.'

-Zero Covid is a contested term, but no description I've seen anywhere reduced complexity what the IT poll is saying it means. Image
The gov may be damned if they do or don't.

But worst case for them is losing a pensionable job before joining private sector.

Worse case for us is deaths, grief and long term sickness. And more lockdowns to worsen the economy.

The IT aren't being the adults in the room here. Image

1/ Thread: Big (and good) questions for #StopCeta, now Dail vote been kicked back to a committee. (Woop woop, yes give yourselves that) It's very clear that a none to small section *within* the Greens are winning so far.
2/ While until now, understandably, much focus has been on the Green party in gov as a whole, wider anti Ceta movement needs to go beyond. And definitely avoid the printed soap opera from pol corrs.
3/ Much of media focus will lazer in on potential Green split around #StopCETA. And FG/FF and most political correspondents will want to keep that focus. CETA as political drama. Dont get distracted by that.

1/ On this day, 24 January 1919, staff and patients barricaded themselves inside the Monaghan Lunatic Asylum in Ireland and declared a soviet.

Text from @wrkclasshistory.
2/ The asylum staff had already shown militancy during a 1918 strike when they chased away visiting staff who attempted to cross the picket line. By 1919, attendants and nurses were working a 93-hour week and earning just £60-£70 per annum.
3/ They invited Peadar O'Donnell, a leading militant in the Irish Transport and General Workers Union, to negotiate on their behalf. And when negotiations failed to resolve their grievances, they hoisted the red flag and ran the asylum in cooperation with the patients.

Parsing the data dump from Parler will take some time.

But just to give you an idea of its use.

This is a global shot of videos uploaded over a defined time period.

Fair to say Parler was mostly US users.

From this data set, UK (England?) was the second biggest user set Image
The data set lets you drill down a fair bit. Each of those dots on the map is a geo-located video upload.
During the upload Parler -unlike say Twitter - retained location metadata. Sloppy operation.
Privacy probably not a big concern if your profiting off hate merchants... Image
As the US impeaches its President for a second time and the FBI has issued warnings about potentially armed paramilitaries at each of all 50 capitol buildings over the next few weeks, its probably a good a time as any for anti-fascists (thats most of us yeah) to get this data Image

This isn't misinformation

It's disinformation in that it's sharing knowing that it's false information

From a gov minister at the peak of a pandemic they have lost control of and trying to blame those doing the actual frontline care work

Woeful stuff
Hmmm shannonside.ie/news/local/lei…

While people are out volunteering to help with vaccines, and wages have been effectively stagnant for most of the population, this TD is happy to bump up their own wages on the Monday to Friday......
Here is the same TD calling other lazy earlier this year thejournal.ie/marc-macsharry…
