X really is the only relevant news source available now.

I have seen that only special SWAT type units carry firearms why not everyone.


The Police Force in the Republic of Ireland - An Garda Sióchána - are not routinely armed, but they DO have specialist units that are, like SFUs and SWAT teams everywhere.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland - PSNI [formerly the RUC] - has been armed in public every day of their founding in 1922. Over three hundred of them were killed in the recent 'troubles'. I'm betting that if Mr Islamic Knifeman had tried his sh*t in the North we would now be reading about his autopsy, rather than his imprisonment.

Which is why the Leftinistas are trying to kill it.

How to fight back: Spread the word Twitter/X is now legit.

How to fight back better: Get a Twitter/X account.

How to fight back even better yet: Get a Premium Twitter/X account.

After Musk took over, and learning more about what went down with Twitter, I wasted no time registering. And it has been enjoyable, too.

I urge you to do so.

The Leftinistas and the Dominant "News" Media are trying to do to Elon Musk and Twitter/X exactly what they've been trying to do to Trump: Kill them off by whatever means necessary.

I agree with many others about the (potential) evils of social media platforms such was Twitter/X, FaceBook, Instagram, etc. But, like all technological changes: It doesn't have to be that way. Used to your advantage it can be beneficial.

Most of the accounts I follow are fitness- and golf-related accounts. Very few political or social commentary accounts. Even then: It's necessary to exert a bit of self control to avoid "doom scrolling." I check in a few times a day, see what might be new and interesting, and, when I find myself scrolling down about the third or fourth time, remind myself "no doom scrolling," and leave.

I do not have the Twitter/X app on phone or tablet. I use it via web browsers only. I do not let Twitter/X consume me.

Israel is correct.

The press is an enemy of freedom.

The Irish citizens are targeting the wrong organizations to burn.

I've been thinking the same thing...about time I sign up.

ensigmatic, I like your computer/browser approach idea.

Time for a new chant.

“From the Danube to the sea, all of Europe will be free.”

Time to free European’s traditional land from the invaders.

This is a good assessment of the situation in Ireland. Even Sinn Fein came out against the Irish.

"People". "Foreigners". "Migrants". How many more euphemisms can they come up with?

"According to him (the current Irish PM) there are too many white people and he promises to promote more "black and colored" people to power.

I guess "democracy" only matters if it's convenient. Should there be a change in government, it'll be called "RACISM." Roll Eyes
