#ÉireLeChéile.

@FaoiLathair2 @Neither_Extreme I don’t need you to see me as being Irish. My national identity is mine to define. I’m curious why it seems to upset you though. Me being Irish doesn’t make you less Irish.

@Neither_Extreme Can we keep the conversation kind and respectful please? This image is intentionally disturbing and disrespectful. Thank you 🙏🏽

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@FaoiLathair2 @Neither_Extreme Could we possibly keep the conversation kind and respectful please?

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@TheLiberal_ie Can we keep the conversation kind and respectful? We can absolutely disagree but can we keep it polite please?

I came to Ireland 25 years ago & been a proud Irish citizen since 2010. The sight of the Irish flag would fill me with a sense of warmth & pride of the country I call home. How is it that now when I see the flag everywhere in my neighbourhood I’m filled with fear & anxiety?

@patricej36 Hi Patrice, my name is Dil. I’m not a “non-national” as I have a nationality. I’m Irish. 🇮🇪

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@JohnMurphy51 Actually it’s 12,000 views just on X and growing here and o other channels. #OurFlag is growing momentum Séan. I hope you will consider being part of it and let the Irish flag bring us together. 🇮🇪

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@SimpSimonSays That’s quite incorrect - the only citizenship I have is Irish. 🇮🇪 Sadly I don’t have dual citizenship. Ireland is my chosen home. 💚

@nellydeefflu3nt @AmalekMax Hi, the field of counselling & psychotherapy is being regulated as we speak by Coru. I have been studying psychotherapy since 2018 first with @DBScollege Pink Therapy UK & Contemporary Institute of Sexology and just started my MSc Child & Psychotherapy with PCI college. 🙏🏽

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@AmalekMax Hi Max, I’m home. 🇮🇪

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@MickOKeeffe The Irish flag belongs to whoever calls Ireland their home. Yes, I’m a proud migrant - I chose Ireland as my home & Ireland chose me as an Irish citizen. This is my effort to show that I hold the Irish flag in the highest regard. Like you, I’m proud to be Irish. 🙏🏽🇮🇪

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@campbellmanila This is #ourflag Paul - it belongs to whoever calls Ireland their home. This is my effort to show that I hold the Irish flag in the highest regard. I’m proud to be Irish, just like you. 🙏🏽🇮🇪

@ivanabacik Thank you Ivana for supporting #OurFlag campaign. 🙏🏽🇮🇪

[Ivana Bacik @ivanabacik]

#OurFlag is a symbol of peace, unity and solidarity.

It should never be weaponised, used to stoke fear, or intimidate.

@Elizabe63671900 I’m curious about this term “paper Irish”? What do you mean?

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@GeorgeDillon It must be frustrating for you but migrants have been part of Irish society for decades now & if we were all to go many industries would come to a halt - healthcare, hospitality, construction, tech… just to name a few but we are more than economic units. We long for belonging.

[dublincitycommunitycoop @dublincitycomm1]

We support the #OurFlag campaign.

In the inner city we are proud of being Irish. We are lucky to have some of Ireland's finest athletes from our area. We also are lucky to have such a diverse and multicultural population, which brings great dynamism & energy to our community!!

[Dil Wickremasinghe @DilW]

@GeorgeDillon Sounds like you are worried about Irish identity and its heritage being lost. I understand, being colonised and oppressed is traumatic. Being of Sri Lankan ethnicity I’m well aware of the psychological impact of this. However most migrants want to embrace & uphold Irish culture.
