It is a term coined and used solely by a small vocal few of Irelands far right
Like the brexit bus NHS numbers or the ukip billboards it is devoid of all meaning and merely a dog whistle to a racist few
But saying Black Lives Matter is promoted all over the media as being a wonderful thing. Saying anything related to white/European lives being important is some kind of hate crime but fine when any other group say their lives matter.
I honestly bet talking about the famine is going to be labeled a nativist dog whistle soon
Are you going to post Irish weather as well soon?
The pendulum is swinging back slowly my friends, let’s hope it speeds up.
Black lives matter= Pride
Asian lives matter= Pride
Muslim lives matter= Pride
Irish/European lives matter= Hate speech that needs to be eliminated from society and the people who say it need to go to jail!
It’s a complete a double standard.
TIL. X lives matter is a hate movement and hate crime
It’s because of the implication
“Irish lives matter” branded as hate speech.
Did fucking Cromwell rise from the grave?
No it won’t, the signs being treated as a hate incident are a series of ones saying that immigrants aren’t welcome. The Irish Lives Matter graffiti was mentioned in the local articles on the incident and Fox is taking this and running their own narrative on it.
Can someone explain what is going on over there? Is this in connection to the stabbing recently? I’ve heard more about the riots than the actual stabbings.
This is clearly a stupid move by the government, it isn’t a hate crime. I would also ask if “from the river to the sea” is one. It seems that they are rather selective of what constitutes a hate crime depending on the colour / background of the person…
I would say all lives matter, but that was seen as Racist during the BLM movement. I think people need to stop with specific groups mattering more by making slogans.
Everyone matters in regards to lives.
It’s because the leftist governments don’t want to admit that unconditional diversity failed
Thiese comments is a shit show wtf!?
It really is sad to see these crackdowns on freedom of speech. And these new ‘hate speech’ laws being pushed forward.
Sure, fine someone for vandalism. But hate crime? Wtf
Equating this to BLM is ridiculous given context.
BLM exists as a statement because of the mistreatment of Black people in America.
Irish Lives Matter spawned as a statement against immigration. Quite literally the only time I’ve ever seen it used in public is beside a blackface picket saying Africans belong in African, and at the riots a few nights ago, you know the one that destroyed public property and attacked minority groups?
For a sub that is so anti-ireland lately, it sure how strange how quickly people turn to supporting an Irish Lives Matter sign in the name of being anti-immigration.
Edit: And the ruling has been made. Context and meaning is out the window, we’re just here to hate immigrants and downvoted anyone who disagrees without inputting our own opinion.
Looks like Irish developed a subconscious fetish to being oppressed and dominated by outsiders.
If you can‘t say that your citizens lives matter in your own county you have been conquered by enemies of the people
I swear these leftist idiots are trying to get the far right elected all over Europe. Admit you were wrong, stop letting more arrive, deport the worst of them and you wont have to worry about the far right loons anymore.
hahahah
Utter madness.
All I see here are people trying to inflame the problems in the north again. Whether its the people writing the sign or the people seeing it as a hate crime, I don’t know. I just know I don’t want us going back to that crap again. Everyone needs to keep their heads about them. It’s only graffiti
Well the UK would do something like this…
What the fuck is wrong with Irish politicians? This is utter immoral madness.
Is there any other source for this? Or is it just made up click bait for right wingers.
politicians in 2023: what could possibly go wrong?
politicians in 2024: why support of right wing parties skyrocketed so much?
These people are traitors to Ireland.
Ugh ….. How exactly is this considered a hate crime, a crime, not even hate speech, not even sounding like hate speech – not even close to “white power” “dirty thugs” or whatever . WHY?!
Newspeak is real
Luck of the Irish.
Tbf black lives matter was already a movement full of racists so it kinda makes sense.
The state of the United Kingdom
Every other race / group is allowed to be proud of who they are except white people.
Orwellian world Ireland is becoming. Bizarre.
Oh ffs…
“Local police received reports of signs hung in western Belfast reading the neighborhood will “no longer accept the re-housing of Illegal immigrants or the excrement of other communities,” the BBC says. The slogan “Irish Lives Matter” also appeared on a nearby mall’s wall.”
Reading the article does wonders so please read the damn articles
Who would have thought this man doesn’t have the interest of the people of Ireland. Lmao
Or just listen to the usual progressive talk about men or whites that would get you banned immediately if you talked the same way about blacks or Muslims.
Progressives are the definition of bigots, don’t be surprised only non-white matter in their ideology.
Edit: Did I mention progressives think black people should be written as “Black” and white should be non-capitalised? How much more obviously racist can they get?
Both Irelands competing to see who can be more of a leftist dystopia
Mods lock this fucking thread already.
No lives matter!
As a Brit I agree this is hate speech lmao 🤣
My favorite description of the BLM movement was the house is on fire analogy. No one in their right mind would be shouting “all houses matter.” You’d advocate putting out the fire on your neighbor’s house ASAP. This is complete insanity.
Limiting freedom of speech is always a despicable evil act. That doesn’t make their “protest” legitimate, since it’s based on a complete delusion.

So Irish lives don’t matter?
Got it.

Progressivism is a highly bigoted ideology again and again. Don’t forget that some of the most bigoted policies in the modern Western world have been written by progressives. Like the skin colour requirements for US colleges where [depending on the GPA, the vast majority of white people can be turned away for having the wrong skin colour](https://www.aei.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/med1.jpg?x91208), the [healthcare apartheid laws in New Zealand](https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland-surgeons-must-now-consider-ethnicity-in-prioritising-patients-for-operations-some-are-not-happy/ONGOC263IFC), Belgium [banning men from having asylum rights](https://www.rte.ie/news/europe/2023/0829/1402353-belgium-asylum-seekers/), or this very website which has progressively Nazi rules that allow criticising and praising only certain races.
