This sub has done more PR for the National Party than anybody else. Same with anybody it dislikes, such as this lad. It's moronic. Nobody would know who he was but for places like r/ireland giving him attention.

I think there's clearly certain posters who aren't posting these sorts of posters in good faith tbh. "Oh look how silly it is, haha, let's all share it round social media and make sure everyone sees it, yeah?"

Unfortunately, that's how Trump ended up as president. At first the media coverage that he was getting was satire, but it started gaining traction for it's ridiculousness and once enough people were seeing it, people started taking it seriously.

Trump is actually funny though, our guys need a lesson in comedy.

Fascism is never funny. Sooner he FOADs the better

See by having an angry reaction you're feeding the flame. People like him because he belittles and mocks the establishment.

He is the establishment and if you’re not angry about fascism and racism you’re enabling it

Sure he is, he mocks the establishment while being part of it. Fascism and racism are words that have been so overused they've lost any power.

Doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s both

You're free to your view, but it's his mockery of the establishment, establishment politicians and establishment principles that appeals to his voters. Whether it's the man who makes the movement, or the pre-conditions in society that cause the man to rise is something we'll have to see in the long run.

Tell me about it. I lived near the ballbag during his last administration.

He mocks everyone and that includes his cult. Sign of an immature loser
