@peacefulUprisin @paulmurphy_TD @Daithimc911 ha, he asked for photographic evidence. Your mate asked AI. That’s the problem with your lot. That’s the limit of your research on everything

Kneecap is not the story.
Genocide in Gaza is.

[KNEECAP @KNEECAPCEOL]

"Mo Chara’s real problem is that the message he put out landed. Working-class people aren’t meant to speak like this, organise like this, or connect struggles across borders like this. That’s what scares them.

While Mo Chara stands in the dock for allegedly waving a flag, those complicit in a genocide walk the streets untouched. Since October 2023, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza – entire families erased, journalists targeted, children bombed in their beds.

More than 300 officials at the Foreign Office raised their concerns about Israel’s “stark … disregard for international law”. And yet, the UK government continues to greenlight arms deals and offer diplomatic cover. That’s not a performance. That’s a conscious policy decision. Made in Westminster, paid for by the taxpayer, and buried beneath silence.

They’ve tried this before. Give Ireland Back to the Irish – banned. Christy Moore – detained. The Pogues’ Streets of Sorrow – silenced for decades. And now, it seems to be Mo Chara – for turning protest into poetry, politics into art.

So here’s the question – the same one Pete Seeger asked, the same one Mo Chara asks now: Which side are you on?

Gold! Conor McGregor has shown himself to be, repeatedly, a hateful and massively unpleasant figure. He's a ludicrous person, tarnishing what was a pretty inspiring rise in his field to being an asolute joke and the most hated man in Ireland.

[liam cunningham @liamcunningham1]

@TheNotoriousMMA Didn’t know you could read and write Conor. Thought you used your hands to tap out.

[Paul Murphy 🇵🇸 @paulmurphy_TD]

It is a terrorist state which stops humanitarian aid.

All of us must redouble our efforts to break the siege and end our governments' complicity in genocide.

Give Logan his diploma, @nyuniversity. He was chosen to address his peers for a reason — and he spoke the truth. You should be proud of students like him, not punitive.

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

Please watch this beautiful speech from Logan Rozos at NYU's graduation ceremony that has pro-Israel propagandists freaking out

@TumbleweedLily when was Ireland great, it would be helpful to understand what that means? I’m 40, I can’t remember a time that it was, maybe you’re privy to stuff I’m not?

[Ray Burke @Leftofthedialr]

@aikenpromotions @SteveEarle @TheHelixDublin will there be more Irish dates outside of this, and the Sharon Shannon ones?

@Alan__Shatter Kneecap are on the side of the 20,000 murdered children. You’d silence their voices to suit Israeli propaganda. Kneecap — like the majority of Ireland — stand against the oppressors. Where the fuck is your humanity when it comes to those lost lives?
