Best mate's band supported @KNEECAPCEOL on the first night of their UK tour and gave the lads a copy of my book. Sent me this picture and I’m absolutely buzzing! @UofMPress #Impact

Depressing news out of Belfast this week, but for anyone interested in learning more about loyalism, conflict, and culture war my new book 'Performing Paramilitarism' gives an ethnographic account of what's driving some of this stuff: https://t.co/9KBdpqzirA

I wish those involved all the best with this film, but was surprised no one acknowledged Harvey Andrews,
whose song (and story) this is clearly riffing on: https://t.co/WG9bilahl1

FBI OPS DIRECTOR: Antifa - that's our primary concern right now.

CONGRESS: Where is Antifa headquartered?

FBI: [Pauses] ... We are building out the infrastructure right now.

CONGRESS: What does that mean?

FBI: Well, that's very fluid. It's ongoing for us to understand that.

This is not what Eurovision is supposed to be about.

Everyone at the EBU and Eurovision should be ashamed of themselves for what they’re letting this contest turn into.

I hope the blood money is worth it.

Israel just committed *the largest child massacre in its history*, according to Haaretz. Two hundred Palestinian children murdered in a single day, with direct support from the US and UK, and zero outrage from Western media. What stage of barbarism is this...

[KNEECAP @KNEECAPCEOL]

Well well a chairde Gael!

Some madman dropped by with a huge King George’s head so he could hear a few tunes for our last Melbourne show!

Allegedly his head was cut off last year in the city..…anyways he was put on stage for a few tunes and then whisked away…remember every colony can fall 🔥
