  1. We’ve had two MPs murdered in this country, pretty bad taste they said that.

  2. The name of the band is enough to tell they are idiots.

  3. Cosplay republican morons,cannot understand the hype, the tragedy of the troubles is now a fuckin fashion statement.

  4. The guys named after an IRA torture technique are edgelords who push things too far and have some pretty extreme political views? I’m shocked!

  6. Calm down snowflakes, whatever happened to freedom of speech!

    /S

    Was making fun of this sub for their “JaILeD jUsT for SeNdInG a TweEt!111”

  7. Kneecap have also expressed support for Hamas and Hezbollah. It is possible to support Palestinian people without supporting their terrorist government. But that’s clearly too complicated for these morons.

  8. Is it just me who finds these lot to be really cringey?

    Couldn’t give a fuck if they are saying to kill Tories. It’s all part of the act and I think we can all understand that something said as part of an act isn’t to be taken literally.

    That being said the whole cashing in on the Irish Republican thing is just tedious. The troubles are over and they are just trying to cash in on the politically disenfranchised.

  9. Criticise Israel, and the smear campaign begins. Who would’ve thunk

  10. Yeh I’m old enough to remember when bands like the Sex Pistols, Crass and the Dead Kennedys got in trouble for their lyrics and imagery but this is a different level. There’s no excuse for inciting murder.

  11. Performative Republicanism for the 21st century. Get yourself a balaclava, a social media manager, and bombard TikTok with trite slogans and images from 40 years ago. Fucking Capitalist Realism meets Republican Socialism: this weekend I’ll smash the H-Blocks, next weekend I’ll be at Coachella sipping $30 cocktails and telling everyone I’m a revolutionary.

  12. Pretty sure the guy with the Irish balaclava works or worked in a school. Scary stuff if true.

  13. Can our government for a change focus on fixing UK and not get caught up in some targeted smear campaign against a music group? I fucking hate this embarrassing country

  14. They’re like a feisty, Irish Liberation Sleaford Mods with some pretty ropey rhymes in places.

    Gangster resistance rap will never be popular with number 10.

    And it seems likely that occupational forces will never be popular with many who lived through it in Ireland.

    Och well. They’ve gotten more publicity from number ten complaining than they ever could have gotten through wherever the fuck they advertise.

  17. Ohh but they have been so oppressed with free education, free healthcare, free democratic society and they spent the first few years of their life in nappies when the troubles were coming to a close. Maybe they are trying to incite murder because they were so oppressed or because they is dumb as fcuk.

  18. Completely unacceptable. I mean suggesting there could be a “good tory” ridiculous.

    In seriousness though in a world where people have actually knifes tories, it’s maybe not a good idea to use this sort of rhetoric.

  19. I don’t know why I bother checking the comments section on this sub, ur all a bunch of intentionally misinformed racists. FREE PALESTINE.

  20. I wonder how the Irish feel about these terrorist sympathists.
