It was pretty good. It was alright. It wasn't great. But it was fine.

In a few years, Europe will be governed by right wing governments, and they will read your encrypted messages, prevent you from posting and reading ideas they disagree with and even jail you for wrongthink, and the current governments create the laws making that possible

Over 7,000 eviction notices in the first 3 months of this year.
The highest number since the Famine!
This is what happens when you invite absentee landlords back to our country.
The vulture funds are bloated with profits. Shameful behaviour.
This is FF/FG.

Someone on threads yesterday said that Stephen Miller is what happens when you bury a dildo in the Pet Sematary.

@PeterMcCormack Freedom and Liberty are abstract populist words. They mean everything and nothing. The ladder of abstraction is how politicians sell bad policies. An idea for your podcast would be to define exactly what those words mean to you. I'd be interested to know.

[Marcus Reynolds @marcusreynolds]

@PeterMcCormack Don't claim to be sitting on the fence when you are standing on one side hurling stones at the people on the other.

[Marcus Reynolds @marcusreynolds]

@PeterMcCormack Emotional slogans like freedom and liberty got you brexit and how's that working out? As a long time listener I believe at heart you are centre-left but have been led astray by charlatans. You are great at identifying problems but miss when appointing blame.

[Marcus Reynolds @marcusreynolds]

@PeterMcCormack There's nothing more right wing than wanting to disenfranchise young voters. Would you also support taking the vote away from retired or unemployed people as they pay less income tax?

Her father was chairman of Guinness Mahon Holdings – the bank that compromised hundreds of Irish elites with illegal Ansbacher accounts.

@MickBarrySP Hi Mick, a lot of people don't use instagram or facebook. They are just as toxic as X imo. The best alternatives currently are Bluesky and Upscrolled.

So if ‘Military Grade Drones’ operating in busy flight path to Dublin Airport - Why did @FineGael Minister (part time) Defence not warn relevant aviation authorities? Why were thousands of Aer Lingus, Ryanair British Airways etc passengers recklessly exposed to risk of collision?
