@tradheart@normaburke@DavQuinn What do you mean?
Clearly love thy neighbour means hate for just about anyone else and the repudiation of empathy. It really is mind boggling...
@DavQuinn David, we don't need God, we just need bloody houses.
Tech oligarchs being able to do massive social experiments with no consequence is the other big issue. Plenty of religion in America, but look how unhinged they all are.
@Justinhead1982@timcairns This is it. The English were generally horrified when they learned who the DUP were when they supported the Tories.
Tim maybe would have us believe that Ian Paisley was all about peace and love and Drumcree was just a squabble and didn't involve children being murdered..
@timcairns Where's your place in the UK?
You'd be doing well if they realised you existed, never mind get them to care other than using unionism as a useful patsy when needed.
And again, where's the self awareness of how hostile unionism is to any Irishness? You can't veto both sides...
@JoelKeysNI Utter nonsense. The man was spouting bile and lies constantly. He wasn't trying to find common ground or bridge the divide. He was actively seeking to polarise and divide. You're seeking empathy, the same man was lambasting EMPATHY.
@BeattieDoug The far right kills multiples more in the states than any other group in the states, so absolutely not true. We don't even know the bloody motive. It was the right wing that tried to assassinate Trump. But don't let your feelings get in the way of the facts.
@KellyMatshall@Fatima_Khatun01 You do realise the right wing kills far more than anyone else in the states and that a Republican murdered two democratic politicians not that long ago?
@KellyMatshall@squinteratn The man was raging against EMPATHY. You say he wasn't violent, but he wanted the man who attacked the Pelosis to be released. He said putting gay people to death was 'God's perfect law'. You tote his bible adherence, but he wasn't one for loving his neighbour...
@KevinPGTL@Saraita101@petermartindup Exactly, if someone on the left had been the victim, he certainly would not be showing grace as Sarah put it. Like even read what he was saying just before he was shot.
@Jas782022@Saraita101@petermartindup So lionise him then?
It's impossible to ignore the fact that he has been spouting violent and divisive rhetoric and lies for years. This is the result of the environment he has helped create. Neither is the cynical attempts to politicise the death when no motives are known.
@mccleangreen@Choyaa13@Saraita101@petermartindup@grok All for the big lie too and was recently decrying empathy. I don't believe we should be shooting people, but I don't think we should portray him as some sort of martyr. These are the same flames of hate and chaos that he has been fanning gleefully for years upon years.
@BeattieDoug@pmosligo You don't seem content in being responsible for the taking of human lives in your 'service', you are now seeking to target those who are most vulnerable in our society.
Imagine if one of your children or grandchildren were trans and you read these sorts of comments?
@BeattieDoug@pmosligo I thought maybe you were decent Doug, but this is despicable. Trans people are the most marginalised group in society. Someone who seeks to stand up and treat them with dignity, you pull this shite trying to claim there is something insidious about that.
@cahillbooks@KitMurray It's a much bigger liability for Humphreys given she has said she would learn if she won, but she didn't bother when she was minister for the Gaeltacht for 4 years.
But don't think MON will run either. Would be a big gamble.
@BeattieDoug@NIOgov Have you learned nothing from Irish history?
How exactly have things worked out when the British have tried to 'solve' things on their own on this island. The 1960s and 1970s especially. 'Internal affairs' you might say, but rubber bullets have never been used on anyone in GB..
@Saraita101 It's paranoia, they are afraid of the debate, so just filing everyone in to themmuns and ussuns is the reflex.
Apparently positivity is constantly moaning about themmuns, crying that you don't get enough attention.
Insight, self-reflection or thoughtfulness is a big no-no!
@BeattieDoug Always seeking the impossible, never the possible and always ending up in a worse place than they started at. They are ultimately useful idiots for the likes of Farage and Boris.
@Saraita101 Yeah they'll act interested when it costs them nothing, but if it does cost them or they can drop us for anything at all. They are ENGLISH nationalists above all else.
