Great pub, they do a fantastic proper ham, cheese and onion toastie. Put a Spurs conference league match on the TV for me once as well.
Self declared “Irish nationalist” Derek Blighe as well as Nazi rags like Leo Sherlock’s “TheLiberal.ie” openly eulogising the Bombay Street style burning of houses by Loyalist scum in Ballymena tonight.
Every anti-immigrant demonstration in this state and every anti-immigrant social media account which claims to be from a person in this state is loyal to English and American Nazism and is an enemy of Ireland.

The Nazi “Irish paytriots” were all jizzing themselves at this Loyalist pogrom.
The fucking comments underneath though.

Pretty much every comment section under every Twitter post is like this now. Just to annoy myself I had a look at an RTE News Twitter post yesterday about a 90 year old priest from Longford who lives in Los Angeles and has publicly come out in support of the protestors against Trump’s Gestapo. All in all this priest seems like a good man. The comments section was an endless stream of racist bile from blue tick accounts, most of them likely AI, the ones that weren’t were from the sort of likely paid trolls that now infest the INTERNET.
Musk brought in the blue ticks so the likes of Shaney who go to the bother of paying a tenner a month and his blue tick AI equivalents would be the only sort of visible comments in Twitter comment sections.
The blue tick thing is a classic manufacturing of consent. It gives the illusion that ordinary people are all frothing Nazi ghouls. And indeed this is a very successful stategy. Ordinary people begin to believe that ordinary people are frothing Nazi ghouls, and fall in with the mob. The Nazis wouldn’t bother using this strategy if it wasn’t successful.
Facebook is even more insidious in this regard.
I’ve said it before many times and I’ll it again many times - the extent to which the INTERNET has fucked people’s brains is VASTLY underestimated.
I said before that all this would likely end in a genocide in Europe by 2045. I very much hope that doesn’t happen but I don’t see any reason to change my view.
We have European countries supporting genocide so we’re just two steps away. Everything you’ve said about the internet and social media about to be turbo charged by AI.
Indeed and these are “liberal” European governments.
Just wait until we have the real fascists taking over France and Germany and Britain.
I have a very pessimistic view of humanity in general. There’s a general refusal on the part of humans to confront the evil humans are capable of and because of that, it means that evil tends to be allowed spread like a cancer and perpetrate absolute horror.
There are some documentary series which should be compulsory viewing as education about how humans are manipulated and the sort of barbarism they can and will inflict when manipulated. The Century Of The Self by Adam Curtis and The Death Of Yugoslavia the 1990s BBC series are two.
Any person who watches these series and tells me there isn’t a monster that lurks inside every human and especially every man, just waiting to be unlocked by the “wrong” circumstances, is utterly deluded.
We’re all only products of the lottery of birth, the lottery of circumstances, the information we consume and we are all utterly manipulable. The best defence is to understand these facts, not deny them.

The pogrom in Ballymena the other night took place in area called Harryville.
I knew I’d heard the name Harryville before. Catholics targeted by the same sort of bigots who committed the pogrom the other night, all for the crime of going to mass. Their leader was paedophile Davy Tweed.
I don’t remember any of the bigots rioting when Davy Tweed was outed as a paedophile.
The Catholic church there was demolished in 2013 because the bigots led by the paedophile won.
The same bigots now supported by “Irish paytriots”.
LOYALISTS attacked police protecting parishioners who were leaving Mass at the Harryville Catholic church in Ballymena, Co Antrim, on Saturday evening.
Mr David Tweed, the former Irish rugby international and now a DUP councillor for Ballymena, took part in the 200 strong protest. He is also a member of Dunloy Orange Lodge and the Dunloy branch of the Apprentice Boys of Derry.
The loyalists are demanding the right to march in the nationalist village of Dunloy, 12 miles away, without needing to negotiate with residents there.
A large police contingent attempted to prevent protesters reaching the church on Saturday by forming lines across the Larne Road. Just before parishioners left Mass, RUC officers in riot gear tried to force the protesters away from the church.
This infuriated the crowd, which then carried out a sustained brick and bottle attack on the RUC. Others hurled sectarian insults at the Catholic congregation.
There were accusations by protesters that the police were heavy handed, although one female and two male officers were injured by missiles. One member of the public received head injuries.
Tension had been heightened by the banning of an Apprentice Boys parade through Dunloy last Sunday. The RUC is also under severe pressure - the homes of three officers have been petrol bombed in Ballymena in the past week.
Askeel to assess the situation in Harryville, Mr Tweed said: "If they had used half as much force in Dunloy as they did in Harryville tonight, the parades would be going ahead as usual in Dunloy.
“I think to confront a crowd that wants to hold a protest actually on the road with riot gear is only going to cause offence.”
At 7.30 p.m. the police forced the crowd towards the loyalist estate of Ballykeel. There a van owned by a Catholic firm, F.P. McCann of Magherafelt, was set on fire.
The firm’s employees were carrying out contract work on a water main which supplies Ballykeel. One of the company’s diggers was driven into a large hole, cutting off the estate’s water supply.
The RUC is to take action against some of those involved. Over the past few months they have secured a number of convictions using video evidence.
A police spokesman said: “Police moved in to clear the road when they came under heavy missile attack. Police actions ensured that worshippers were able to get to and from church safely.”
The Mayor of Ballymena, Mr James Currie, who has stood in support with parishioners at the chapel, condemned the violence.
“If they want to protest peacefully, they are entitled to, but they must do so within the rule of law,” he said. "If they claim they are loyal subjects of Her Majesty the Queen, then they should obey Her Majesty’s security forces.
“When they go out and wreck and destroy they are doing the same job as the IRA and they are only hurting their own area and their own people. It’s like someone fouling up their own patch and they should think long and hard about the damage they are doing in the long term to Ballymena.”
I was married in Ballymena but in All Saints church.
The Catholic church in Harryville was surrounded by a wall with wire on top. The wire was covered in LVF, UVF etc flags. Paint was splattered all over the entrance. My father-in-law went to 6pm mass there every Saturday night. He would insist I go with him, and drive my D reg car. It was a tad scary as the protesters copped my southern reg car.

It’s strange that the same people now claiming to be worried about the safety of children didn’t riot when the leader of Unionism was arrested and charged with extremely serious rape and child sex abuse offences.

There is a malignant cancer of far right thugs in the Republic who are allied with Loyalist savages and cheer them on at every opportunity.
These social media accounts and some real people who much of their lives being bussed around Ireland to the latest Potemkin village demonstration are conspicuous by their ostentatious waving of the Irish tricolour.
In reality they are fascists allied to Loyalism and the English far right.
Fascist allies of Loyalists and the English far right using the Irish tricolour as a prop to shill for these deadly enemies of Ireland, you couldn’t make it up.
Here’s a prototype Nazi called “Unrepentant Irishman” with an Irish tricolour in his Twitter bio who has a serious horn for Loyalists and serious horn for Bombay Street style pogroms. One of hundreds, perhaps thousands of such accounts.
