But we were saying a month or so ago that the Iona Institute crowd needed a candidate or else what was the point of them. Their problem there though was that theyâre completely fucking despised. G OâD is fucking perfect for them because she has genuine anti-establishment street cred that canât really be questioned. Complete wolf is sheepâs clothing. And Holland is just helping her.
This is a big chance for G OâD to make some serious gains Iâd say.
Holland exposing some of the trash OâDoherty has written is the very much playing the ball.
Itâs up to OâDoherty to stand over what she has written.
The thing with journalism is that when a journalist has a consistent record of publishing obvious trash and being a general crank and crackpot, it pretty much automatically invalidates any other work theyâve ever done which might have merit, because thatâs not how truth works, you canât cherry pick the bits you like and piss all over truths you donât like.
In that way, Gemma OâDoherty is Denis OâBrienâs biggest ally of all, because any work she has ever done on Denis OâBrien can then be passed off as the work of a crackpot.
Itâs yet another case of the self-proclaimed âanti-establishmentâ working in favour of the actual establishment.
Itâs beyond time the term âestablishmentâ was dispensed wth completely, as the term as it has come to be used has lost any meaning and is now mainly used as an Orwellian truth-twisting and truth-denying device.
