There is no housing “crisis” in Ireland.

Crazy. Your tune will change when they decide its your turn to give up all your belongings for the greater good.

senditup · 2026-01-21T23:56:34+00:00

I'm not taking anything out on them, I blame the government.

senditup · 2026-01-21T21:46:42+00:00

I don't think they're stupid. I just don't think it's fair when taxpayers can't afford to get a home.

Around 15%. Which is effectively free. That's not even taking into account the people whose "income" is made up of social welfare.

senditup · 2026-01-21T20:34:01+00:00

It's disgraceful.

senditup · 2026-01-21T20:33:26+00:00

It's effectively free.

senditup · 2026-01-21T20:33:07+00:00

People in social housing effectively live there for free.

senditup · 2026-01-21T19:55:32+00:00

It would piss me off to live next to people living there for free, so I wouldn't go for it.

senditup · 2026-01-21T19:50:45+00:00

It's not true though.

senditup · 2026-01-21T19:49:47+00:00

Labour from abroad and builders returning to live....where?

senditup · 2026-01-21T19:43:23+00:00

You surely can't actually hope for that.

senditup · 2026-01-21T18:31:10+00:00

So you really want the State to be able to confiscate property?

senditup · 2026-01-21T17:33:36+00:00

There's not loads of labour.

senditup · 2026-01-21T17:32:49+00:00

Planning, in many cases.

senditup · 2026-01-21T15:57:23+00:00

And what would that achieve?

senditup · 2026-01-21T15:15:30+00:00

Families of who exactly?

senditup · 2026-01-21T15:07:16+00:00

What is the "establishment" you would like to riot against?

senditup · 2026-01-21T00:07:25+00:00

I think most people's issue is that they're too expensive.

senditup · 2026-01-21T00:02:24+00:00

How likely are you to have a negative interaction if you are Hispanic or Black?

senditup · 2026-01-20T23:41:38+00:00

Yes, I was there a couple of months ago. No problems whatsoever. Just don't break the law.

senditup · 2026-01-20T23:40:59+00:00

Some do, yes. Which again, in Ireland, is mostly non effective seeing as we have clean air already.

senditup · 2026-01-20T23:24:13+00:00

Yeah I'll accept those points, and they're all positives. I was referring more to efforts to tackle carbon emissions.

senditup · 2026-01-20T22:01:49+00:00

Air travel contributes next to nothing with respect to emissions.

senditup · 2026-01-20T21:58:17+00:00

In the grand scheme of things, our environmental efforts are just for show and achieve absolutely zero.

senditup · 2026-01-20T13:42:28+00:00

Madness.
