That’s just bullshit I think. Some fellow irish comrades warned us about fear mongering like this, like Vladamir McMurphy from the Party of the United Sligo Socialist Republicans, who we should all vote for by the way.
Funny how the government doesn’t care when the health service is hacked by Russia and everyone’s data is leaked on the internet. Yet when there’s an election it’s christ we need to be careful.
Russia is a cancerous tumour to the world
This is utter bullshit. They might try re information but i wouldnt worry too much about that and our voting process is pretty old school (not hackable) and therefore solid.
Sometimes people just need to be dramatic.
It would take some amount of interference to get Russian stooges People before Profit into power.
Is this setting up _”the Shinners are Russsian plants”_ narrative?
Whatever the US administration are saying, the opposite is true
Please Russia don’t give us FF-FG again

Does the US always make it it’s job to ruin other countries?
Who gave the national party that mysterious gold?
Who funds the Iona crowd and gript?
Get those bastards out of Orwell Road and on the next flight to their wonder land of shit, all of those Idiots from the m50 protest should be on the plane with them.
> […] sow enough division and doubt to create instability and erode social cohesion […]
Hear that guys? It’s _the Russians_ that are responsible for the Housing Crisis, the collapse of the health system, and the overall breakdown in social cohesion brought about by being unable to afford a decent living.
Our own ‘side’ would never gaslight us into fighting among ourselves, to maintain power.
Moscow Mick will be the new Taoiseach!
before people shriek for their pitchforks, the CIA is not saying that Putin is going to make Mary Lou Taoiseach, that is not the aim at all. What they want is a hung Dáil and a weak government
But a bigger priority is the EP elections, where Rus will get a much bigger bang for their disninformation buck – ie Comrades Daly and Wallace. You don’t have to be a geopol intel genius to see how keeping those two in Brussels is absolutely worth their weight in gold to the Kremlin (and also Beijing and Tehran tbf)
Wait until the Russians get a load of our “he built the roads” attitude to political parties. There 100 years in the making to try break us down. Unless they are offering free pints.
