This is 1 of first pieces I've read recently, where journos are trying to give ppl an overall picture/understanding of far-right/fascist groups in #Ireland & how they've been operating, issues they're exploiting etc
Just a few important facts omitted imo..
#altshite #antifascist https://twitter.com/irishexaminer/status/1358023895371063296
None of these ppl are "politicians", they're far-right agitators
Article say "right wing" then only describes National Party as "far-right", Irish Freedom Party, The National Party, ACI (GO'D/Waters) these are ALL fascist groups, 100%, agitators not politicians.
Gemma O'Doherty..
is not the only fascist agitator in Ireland spreading neo-nazi conspiracy theory of "the gr*at repl*cement", or inciting hate/violence, racism/bigotry & Islamophobia - the Irish Freedom Party (Yellow Vests), National Party & all their various front groups on sm also spread this
racist conspiracy theory.
Ppl also have to remember these groups are evolving/getting more sophisticated in ways & have toned down or disguise their racism/white supremacist views/ideology.
Also it's the Irish Freedom Party who have been most successful in spreading #COVID19 hoax
disinfo etc on sm & it was Irish Freedom Party along with their front groups, Yellow Vests & Health Freedom Ireland who organised the huge anti-mask/anti vaxx "freedom rallies" in Dublin
& IFPs Prof Dolores Cahill of @ucddublin who has been most successful in spreading Covid...
disinfo, her vids/propaganda are used by all factions of the far-right in Ireland & internationally.
Despite public optics all of these groups actually work together & have set up many front groups to disguise links & draw ppl in on sm.
Hermann Kelly is no different to GO'D etc
these people are all white supremacist, Christofascists & agitators
They may have different tactics, agendas, talking points etc...but essentially they all operate in same way...spreading disinfo, stoking hate/violence/division & capitalise on/exploit public disillusionment/anger
& issues eg. Housing/homeless crisis, Covid, Brexit issues, immigration/unemployment etc etc...
#COVID19 has been a gift to them.
Last thing the idea of "splinter groups", yes there are groups now organising themselves but they are being encouraged to do so by ring leaders...
the group that ended up on Grafton St were organised by Yellow Vests who are IFP's frontline agitators
IFP, NP, GO'D etc encourage their supporters to do this, take action & they use these front groups to test waters/push boundaries etc but their links are undeniable, same circle
NB. Hermann Kelly, Dolores Cahill, Ben Gilroy, Justin Barrett, Gemma O'Doherty, John Waters, Tan Turd, Dave Cullen, Gearoid Murphy etc the "leaders" who organise/incite/call for action are responsible & should always be held responsible for actions of their followers in #Ireland
& the so called "media" outlets, "journos" & bloggers etc who support these far-right groups, by creating racist/bigoted/far-right content/propaganda, that fascists in Ireland swarm around & share on sm, using it to normalise/legitimise far-right views, they must not be forgotten
People like Niall Boylan of @ClassicHits
& @CorksRedFM are constantly platforming these fascist agitators & their far-right views & disinfo.
Shameful stuff, they are key element in legitimising far-right & the rise of fascist groups in Ireland. https://twitter.com/EamonnVIDF/status/1356964919778955264?s=19
Many local media platform these fascists @Longford_Leader @shannonsidenews @Galwaybayfmnews @OceanFmIreland etc have all platformed & normalised fascist groups in Ireland, despite being asked not to legitimise/spread views of dangerous racists & bigots

Question must be....
asked of media in #Ireland
are they going 2 continue 2 platform fascist groups who've been relentlessly inciting hate/spreading white supremacist & #covid19 etc propaganda/disinfo on sm for 2yrs?
when elections come are they going to platform these dangerous fascists again?
Nuts
RTE, Irish Times, Virgin media, Newstalk, Today Fm etc have also platformed them, neo-nazis ie. the National Party, white supremacist fascists, John Waters, Gemma O'Doherty, Hermann Kelly etc...

It's actually scandalous how national media hve facilitated these fascists to date
Fascist groups on facebook have more traction/reach than ur ave media outlet or elected politician
This is a major prob
Far-right groups, Irish Freedom Party/Yellow Vests, National Party, ACI etc have all set up sm front groups & their supporters overlap. https://twitter.com/LeahNiD/status/1354192135235493905?s=19
