Money says the artist has never used either a hammer or sickle in their life.
They’re using a symbol there synonymous with Communist Russia. A brutal, totalitarian society. So yea, I think it’s ok to say that it might be a bit communist.
Housing for the people: yes, I like this.
Implementing communism; I do not like this.
Random question but is the sickle it ment to be the other way round no?
Anyone got an update on Connolly house ?
Is it being used for Ukrainians yet or is it still empty ?
Fucking tankies.
Housing yes. Communism no.
And it says « OOH AH UP THE RA ! »
The hammer and sickle. Ah yes, that lovely old era of communism. Where everyone lived in secure, pastoral bliss and weren’t interfered with or oppressed or spied on by the State.
Communist jokes aren’t funny unless everyone gets them.
Oh god the hammer and sickle’s are out the edgy college students are on the prowl or most likely in CAFE NERO because Starbucks is toooo corporate 😂😂😂😂
“It won’t go Awayyyy”
I agree some socialist action should be taken in regards to housing. But conflating socialism to communism is an extreme.
I guess people here don’t really understand what went on during the great communist experiment of the Soviets, or what is still going on in communist China (presently known as special Chinese socialism). But you would not want to have idealistic utopian beliefs being anywhere near politics lads…
Edit:
Just to fair there is one thing on the top.of my head that Ireland has that’s socialist – water. Water’s free.
The housing for the people bit I can get behind.
The hammer and sickle on the other hand…
It should be keyboards and toolboxes nowadays. Irony is that current working class are all those doing office jobs in open spaces or contractors. The bourgeois are the investment funds, REITS and people that don’t have to work as their money work for them.
When it’s at the point where a message as fundamental as “housing for people” is thought of as extreme communist ideology it just goes to show how little there is out there for the ordinary person. We’re feeding on scraps.
I ran away from communism, eventually became an Irish citizen, and now I have to deal with this bullshit here too.
Seeing people from western countries advocating for communism like it’s a magic cure for all of their problems really pisses me off
I hate not being able to afford a home, but it sure beats the gulag.
yes no housing
no to communism.
And since we’re here and political anyway no to the English government.
That’s vandalism!
Just joking with ya. Yeah I agree. The unrealistic housing prices resulted with me having to locate from Dublin to Laois. I like Laois but I do miss Dublin.
Ps the vast majority of you with your phobia to communism have no idea what you are talking about. Tune in to Revolution left on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, educate yourselves. You are ignorance furled on fear.
My uncle was one of the homeless people that died this year(he died yesterday) and I agree with this, my uncle would still be here with his family but sadly this country took a family member away from us

God only knows how we basically had no stake in the cold war but somehow still came out as brainwashed as Americans are on the subject of communism.
