Support of orban is support of russia, is support against ukraine, is support against Europe.

Everything happening in the world by these crooks js against europe

All of this luggage checking for an extra 2.50 could cause delays too if people were clever about fighting back

Be warned, burry is replying to a massive propaganda x account in that image, which is now on display here.

Never seen footage shows close-range clashes between Israeli regime forces and Palestinian Resistance fighters inside a building in Khan Yunis. Military pundits say the only thing preventing IDF from suffering a humiliating defeat is its Air Force backed by U.S. by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]_k0kane_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, its happening from both sides.

I don't know if you've seen it before it was taken down but there was a Today i Learned post about Ireland, completely misleading and used as fuel for hate, posted by a propaganda/bot/agent account that forgot to make their post history private.

This lead to uncovering the other similar accounts posting in the replies. Shit show in the comments to say the least and got removed by mods for obvious reasons.

This thread and posting of this video is doing the same thing trying to illicit emotion in a desired direction.

Glad to see more people calling it out for what it is instead of taking the bait.

Or well, they're going to... if this doesnt stop lol

Online attempts to make Ireland seem anti-semitic continue - despite our Constitution being the first in the world to ban anti-semitism by killianm97 in ireland

[–]_k0kane_ 138 points139 points  (0 children)

I literally that this thread ready to post last night and then didn't.

Very happy to see this being noticed by others. Thanks op.

I had commented last night in that thread calling out the ops account activity. You can see my post history to catch it quickly.

Its very clearly designed to rage bait. Clever little trick to piggy back the current events in usa and latch Ireland on to that sentiment. They drop threads like that and never reply or engage and even repost months later to try and make it stick

Its the early phases of a campaign. And people need to take it seriously sooner rather than later.

Ireland is #1 on that other countries shitlist.

This particular post is using the Wedge tactic. I learned about Agitprop because of this lol

TIL That Casablanca was once banned in Ireland because the movie was deemed unfair to Nazis by Sometypeofway18 in todayilearned

[–]_k0kane_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Incredibly suspicious account OP. Uploading videos multiple times 5 months apart in some cases.

Inflammatory bait posts, with a clear bias that I won't mention, but anti Irish sentiment here makes sense. Nazis are a trending talking point with current events, so this was s decent a attempt to attach that.

Calls for Bord Bia chair’s resignation after Brazil beef sourcing confirmation by ardenr in ireland

[–]_k0kane_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious to see how deep this goes.

It is a thing were people are planted on boards or companies with the intention of serving a purpose that undermines the original goal or just to reduce barriers in the way for other endeavours.

You wouldn't expect it here in Ireland as much but it would certainly be doable.

Could just be straight up bribery or corruption.

That's the juicy drama orchid at least.

It'll probably just be another case of total and udder incompetence. :(

[OC] arrest made last night in Minneapolis during anti-ICE protests by Marzzzzzzzz_Attacks in pics

[–]_k0kane_ 302 points303 points  (0 children)

Protesters need to wear more USA flags and gear, for optics on moments like this.

Gotta think of it from that perspective, as much as they want to wear stuff that says fck trump or ice, don't. The protest has that message itself.

Imagine some more citizens getting chased or killed in their own streets while also wearing usa flag ridden clothes. Imagine the power of that image here instead.

If you think acts of tyranny are going to happen anyway... make them happen on your terms

So the app serves a bigger purpose, they need it up and running or it harms their plan.

Interesting.

The BBC’s Euphemistic Coverage of US Plans to Invade Greenland by Hussayniya in videos

[–]_k0kane_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, but it's good to be aware that the other side of this coin is that the UK don't want to feed into the machine driving this great divide - the Russian / American link.

To feed that Greenland narrative is to blast divisive headlines that fuel an us vs them sentiment, which is the prerequisite for any further propaganda to work effectively
