Ireland's president elect is a left-wing, anti-establishment figure who is outspoken on Gaza
I bet my left nut that we will see a large social media disinformation campaign coming down on Ireland soon and a shift to hard right politics the next election.
Ireland’s current president that she’s replacing is also fairly left wing. It’s a ceremonial position for the most part. The head of the Irish government is the Taoiseach which is essentially the PM. The president is just the head of state.
Oh, was the last president the guy who brought his dog everywhere?
Say goodbye to your left nut. There's a small hard right in Ireland, the rest of us are too busy enjoying ourselves
There's a small hard right in the US (and probably most other places that are starting to get more authoritarian), that doesn't stop them from manipulating their moderate compatriots.
Oh, there is no need for the troll farm spreading the disinformation to be Irish... It could be based in any dictatorship wanting to sow division in democracies to weaken them. It's happened before.
Im willing to bet no one is doing that for the President of Ireland because their actual leader is the PM.
Good thing I said next election, not next presidential election.
You had me in the first half and then said the irish will go right. They are, by and large, the most oppressed, most stepped on, most ignored people in the world. But hey do have each other. There is not a way in hell that Ireland will pivot to hating their neighbors, they're too socially advanced for that. And before you say it hit other "advanced" societies too, I said socially advanced. The one thing the USA has been stripping from every other part of the west, where it was still left.
The irish are going nowhere.
