It's easy to make the Government out as the bad guys in these labour talks. Very easy. Incredibly easy. So easy that you'd think it would spark some introspection

I’m in DC scheduled to give this talk today. But the organizers flagged slides in my deck that mention racism, structural gaslighting, New Jim Code and other themes that are off limits in the Land of the Free.

Would like to see a journalist ask the 7 of Ireland's 14 MEPs (3 FG, 3 FF, 1 II) who just voted to: -endorse burqa bans -call "hatred of Israel" a sign of "Islamist influence" -identify European Muslim communities as potential tools of "malign foreign actors" to justify themselves
Believes that the practice of concealing the face in public spaces and premises open to the public poses an unacceptable challenge to public security, identification and effective law enforcement; supports, therefore, all national measures aimed at prohibiting full-face coverings (niqab or burqa) in public spaces and premises open to the public as a necessary step to ensure social cohesion, public safety and the protection of the rights and freedoms of others, in particular womenwhereas separatist narratives, systematic victimhood, antisemitism, anti-Christian hatred, hatred of Israel, conspiracy narratives, challenges to secularism, the use of religion as a tool of social control or the contestation of equality between women and men may constitute markers of ideological radicalisation or Islamist influence;whereas the ongoing investigations into suspected electoral fraud in Borlänge and Järva, Sweden, illustrate the particular vulnerability of diaspora communities to organised attempts at electoral influence; whereas such vulnerabilities may be exploited by malign foreign actors or transnational ideological networks pursuing covert agendas

On the other end of the spectrum, they were initially referred to in the 1790s as 'murderous banditti' which, I think, gives them an unwarranted amount of glamour.

PSNI Chief has called for calm amidst the Gavaghy Road standoff. I'd dearly love a journalist to pin him down and ask who he think is likely to cause violence. www.rte.ie/news/2026/09...

One of my fav mini gaslighting moments was Ian Paisley insisting the tricolour was green white and gold, the latter being the colours of THE VATICAN.

In 1933, a retirement home for Jewish people opened at Lützowstrasse 48/49 in Berlin, a place for them to live their remaining days in dignity. In 1939, it was taken over by the Nazis, who turned it into a propaganda office for HItler's Schutzstaffel - better known as the SS. (1/n)

Tonight begins the Jewish new year of 5787. When we reflect on the past year, we acknowlege that we lived through the crushing conditions of expanding facism and we witnessed the brutality of the Israeli military’s ongoing genocide. Our grief, rage, and heartbreak know no end.
