      In fairness now they do both like guns, but I guess the American Republicans are pro monarchy now?

      Not really, but when I explain to folks that “X party in Y country are kinda the same crazy as American Republicans” people usually get what I mean.

      There’s a global right that likes to use the word: “woke” and such, that have grass root connections through people helping out in elections, that share podcasters and other media.
      That unity does exist.

      But…… Yeah, silly comments.

      Irish Republicans and American Republicans have two very different points of view, especially when it comes to rolling over for Putin

      The internet yet again steam rolling all reality into a pancake flat and completely context-insensitive information superhighway. Yay. What a win for humanity.

      I remember meeting Irish Americans while backpacking South and Central America. The amount of “I support the IRA” types I met who were right wingers and were horrified to find out that the RA was Marxist and that Irish republicanism is left wing (nominally at least, nationalism will always trend to the right eventually) was just silly.

      I keep hearing talk of a woke mind virus but I honestly feel it’s the other way around, the ones making these complaints are usually slobbering fools. They’re the same people who will say Nazis were socialists or that banning abortion isn’t targeting women because guys also can’t get abortions now. People with two braincells that have rotted from all the gooning to daddy Trump 🙄

      Same thing with nationalists and nationalist parties, some foreigners seem to conflate their own right-wing anti-immigration nationalist parties with nationalist parties in Ireland that seek Irish unity, are left-wing and generally not anti-immigrant.

      It has a specific meaning in Ireland for those in favor of a United Ireland and supportive of past militant actions to the effect, however the term is most often misused here, according to Thomas Paine it came from a French word basically meaning for the good of the public, read “The Rights of Man” to truly explain the concept, its anti monarchy, belief that people should get more of their hard earned money rather than it be wasted on monarchs, government appointed by and for the people, systems to aid the poor, he actually devised a welfare system though totally naive to its abuse, I could go on, its a great book give it a read.
