Abortion - Yay or Nay? Labane and Sid talk American politics, Codegreen ponders on the cost

@Sidney

It was clearly implied by him somewhere in one of those long, boring, meandering threads which also involved that far right nutcase who lives in Nebraska or somewhere.

There is no “but” for a united Ireland in his view.

That means, there is no price that is that not worth paying for a united Ireland.

Which is arrant nonsense only believed by the most fanatical of fanatics.

Could you be more specific?

[Sidney]

Here he is.

Ask him.

Is there any price not worth paying for a united Ireland?

Because that’s what he firmly implied.

And to think otherwise apparently makes you Ruth Dudley Edwards.

You wonder what goes through his head, and all that.

Tut tut.

[TheBlackSpot]

There you go again.

@Sidney

firmly implie

Prove it.

[Sidney]

Do you believe that when a Trump supporter or an anti-abortion nut job shouts “Soros” they’re being anti-semitic?

You’re obviously not familiar with the concept of the dog whistle.

[TheBlackSpot]

Deflection. You made an allegation. Prove it.

[Sidney]

Read on from here:

Fot @glenshane, there is no “however” in the quest for a united Ireland.

Use your imagination as to what that legitimises.

It's warm up North

I would like to see a united Ireland. However, I suspect my vision for a united Ireland would be rather different from the vision for a united Ireland that a lot of people here have, which, to me, seems to be based on a sort of ethno-nationalist “stick it right up 'em” quasi-revenge mindset. For instance, I couldn’t give a shit what the flag is, I couldn’t give a shit what the anthem is, and I’d have no problem essentially just reversing the roles of Ireland and Britain from the current situa…

@Sidney

Use your imagination as to what that legitimises.

You’re asking me to make your argument?

Make it yourself.

Did he ever promote " a war of extermination"? If so… where?

[Sidney]

You’re using weasel words to excuse an ethno-nationalist lunatic, mate.

[TheBlackSpot]

Nope. I’m asking you to justify your specific allegation.

I’m actually a bit disappointed in you here Sid. I’m on your side on most things but you gotta back this one up.

[Sidney]

Tell me what this implies.

I reproduced the post in question with the relevant quote as quoted, verbatim.

@Sidney

I would like to see a united Ireland.

However

@glenshane

What a pencil necked servile lackey of a lickspittle. You’re like some unloved offspring fathered by Ruth dudley edwards and mothered by eoghan Harris.

[TheBlackSpot]

You’re still at that oul “implies” craic. Not good enough Sid.

@Sidney

believing a war of extermination

Where? Prove it.

[Sidney]

Then there’s also this:

[Sidney]

Tell me what the quotes I reproduced imply, pal.

[TheBlackSpot]

You have some proof that this “glenshane4” is the same poster as “glenshane” who posts here?

[glenshane]

You’re a bit of a bin lid sid, but you’re one hell of an actor. Congratulatuons on the academy award!

@Sidney

Tell me what the quotes I reproduced imply, pal.

Sid, mate, what you think they imply is your interpretation. I’m not making your argument. You have to prove that what you think they imply is wht is actually meant.

Carry on.

[Sidney]

There are apparently loads of different lads knocking around Irish internet forums calling themselves “glenshane”.

Same as sid waddell on YBIG and gaaboard has absolutely nothing to do with the poster formerly known as sid waddell on this forum.

Nembo Kid has nothing to do with Cicero Dandi either.

[Sidney]

That’s pretty obvious, pal.

When you say there’s no “however” about how a united Ireland will come about, it legitimises literally anything, even genocide.

The means become irrelevant, only the end outcome matters.

That is a blueprint for genocide.

[TheBlackSpot]

Nah. You’re just generalising and bullshitting Sid. You made a specific allegation that glenshane supports “a war of extermination”.

Where?

[Sidney]

There’s a simple way of ascertaining this.

Is there any “however” in the quest for a united Ireland?

Words matter.

Words cause genocide.
