Comparing Coverage: Dublin riots vs Black Lives Matter

Gavin O’Reilly

One of these is “mostly peaceful”, the other is not. Can you tell which is which?

Last Thursday afternoon, news would spread throughout Ireland of a horrific knife attack on three young schoolchildren and their teacher outside a Gaelscoil (Irish-language school) in Dublin city centre. At the time of writing, the youngest of the victims, a five year old girl, remains gravely ill in hospital.

With it soon emerging that the suspect was an immigrant who had previously been served a deportation order in 2003, tensions that had been building across the country over the past year in response to the immigration policy of Leinster House, which has seen large amounts of male migrants placed into wildly unsuitable locations such as an inner city office block and a children’s school, would come to a head. Calls for a protest in Dublin later that night would rapidly spread throughout social media.

Such protests have become a mainstay across Ireland over the past year, with the government of WEF ‘Young Global Leader’ Leo Varadkar labelling protesters as ‘’far-right’’ and carrying out surveillance of organisers in response, a strategy that has served only to exacerbate tensions even further.

Last year in Canada, under the rule of fellow WEF ‘Young Global Leader’ Justin Trudeau, a similar response would take place to the Freedom Convoy, a protest movement launched by Canadian truckers following the decision to mandate jab passports for drivers returning from the US, the largest land-border in the world and a key component of the Canadian economy.

Just as open borders policies serve the interests of the global elites that the WEF represents, via the undermining of national sovereignty and the devaluing of labour, jab passports served their interests by acting as conditioning for the introduction of an eventual mandatory digital ID, which in line with the Great Reset initiative would allow the government-corporate alliance to have an unprecedented level of control over its citizens’ finances in a cashless society.

The fraught tensions that had spurred on Thursday’s planned protest however, would seemingly attract an opportunistic element, one that had engaged in looting and the burning of vehicles in Dublin on the night.

Unsavoury scenes, though it cannot be understated that, in terms of magnitude, they are a universe apart from the stabbing of children.

The establishment media however, did not hold the same view; with the unrest that swept Dublin dominating newspaper headlines alongside accusations that it had been “organised by the far-right”, the brutal attack on the children and their teacher being consigned to a mere afterthought.

Security Minister for the southern Irish state, Helen McEntee announced that legislation would be fast tracked to introduce Facial Recognition Technology – another key component of the Great Reset – in response to the riots, and it was announced that MMA star Conor McGregor was being investigated for ‘’inciting hate’’ over a post on X that he had sent the night BEFORE the stabbings.

A lockstep response of condemnation, though one that lies in stark contrast to the response towards the riots that swept the United States following the death of George Floyd in May 2020, for which a minutes silence was held in the southern Irish Parliament, something that has so far not occurred for the victims of last Thursday’s mass-stabbing.

To understand why, one must look at the wider political context at the time of George Floyd’s death.

Four days prior to the footage of Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s neck going viral, Joe Biden, the then-Democrat candidate for that years US Presidential election, infamously declared that whoever voted for the incumbent Donald Trump over him ‘’Ain’t black’’ in an attempt to garner support amongst the black community of the United States for his Presidential campaign. A PR disaster, and one that confirmed he was in need of the black vote in order to guarantee an electoral victory.

Thus, the death of George Floyd was weaponised to guarantee such a result, with violent riots sweeping the United States in the aftermath. In contrast to the one night of looting and arson that took place in Dublin however, the mainstream media would provide cover for the months-long unrest in the US, with corporate outlet CNN notoriously describing it as ‘’fiery but mostly peaceful’’ at one stage.

Key to this was the involvement of George Soros, a significant donor to both the Democrat Party and the Black Lives Matter organisation via his Open Society Foundations, a globalist support-network that has sponsored colour revolutions from as far afield as Ukraine and China.

It is also why last week’s night of unrest in Dublin, carried out amidst a wider political context of opposition to globalist policies in Ireland, came in for far more media condemnation than the months of BLM-led riots that took place in the United States in 2020.

The “BLM riots” were an attempted colour revolution against Trump (for instance, see the OffG articles by Kit Knightly and Max Parry). Of course, rather than being “hijacked”, the George Floyd event and protests were staged and choreographed. Despite the attempted coup, however, the Trump admin was running a military-intelligence counter operation and there was never any serious danger of there not being a “smooth transition”.

Does anybody have a name for any of these Far Right Groups that the media and government keep talking about, like is there a “National Socialist Irish Workers” Party out there and if so do they have a flag, or an emblem, or better still a headquarters, like a party office somewhere? I keep hearing about these Far Right groups in the mainstream media, but I don’t know of any formally named far-right groups or associations, or any headquarters, or contact details for such far-right groups, I don’t know a single person in a far-right party, like do they exist or is this pure RTE propaganda bullshit?

So, Dublin riots are somewhat ok, while BLM riots aren’t?
For me, some basic consistency is missing.

“Unsavoury scenes [Dublin riots], though it cannot be understated that, in terms of magnitude, they are a universe apart from the stabbing of children.”

What a sentence…… again, author lacks coherence and goes for emotional impact that is usually ascribed to propagandists (to the dark side).

“…the riots that swept the United States following the death of George Floyd in May 2020, for which a minutes silence was held in the southern Irish Parliament, something that has so far not occurred for the victims of last Thursday’s mass-stabbing.”

Holy shit…in my country a custom of minute of silence is held for dead people and I assume it’s the same in Ireland. No one died at the time the article was scribbled and I certainly hope no one will, but I’m not sure about the author.

The apparent difference in the media’s treatment of BLM and the Irish crowd is exactly what reveals there fundamental identity. Forged by the same traditional right, both fake fetishized far right and fake left(BLM being the most “Pop”) are nothing but tools. In creating an event, in responding to it, always in a way to direct the debate. Among the tools are also the whistleblowers and leakers of limited hangouts or pure fabrications.

Off topic for which I beg your pardon:

I just watched the latest Dr Who episode with the Big Transgender theme. This stars one Yasmin Finney, a “trans woman” who has a wiki page that, true to form, treats “her” entirely as a woman and doesn’t mention the trans bit till half way down. Thus we get no info at all about who “she” was at birth.

The role “she” plays in Dr Who is of a trans woman where “her” non-binary status is a big part of the story – and, needless to say, a source of triumph over adversity.

But note the contradictions. Nothing is more binary than sex. If we take this trans blather at face value then it indicates people who have no sex. And the very propagandists shovelling this stuff out inadvertently admit its absurdity by falling back on the old sexual designations e.g. trans woman.

Working my way through the fetid swamps of the internet, I failed to find much about Yasmin Finney apart from “her” being some kind of Tik Tok icon as “she” charted “her” journey towards becoming a “black trans woman” idol. This depressing journey took me through the slimy channels of such predatory magazines as Teen Vogue. And I was introduced to a new word: stan, which “originated from a combination of the words “stalker” and “fan”, but has since evolved to become a positive term for fans who are highly engaged and supportive of their favorite celebrities”. (Later.com definition) A whole new terminology for adolescent mind molding. In any case, the media, with its characteristic arrogance, are proclaiming Yasmin (and I’m sure there will be others) as part of “A Movement That Will Change The World”.

As a repellent example of such ghoulish exploitation:

See excruciating purple prose (“her long slim limbs flying …. Finney ebulliently glows, all childlike delight”) whilst Finney delivers unlikely lines for a 19 year old: “You know how some babies learn to swim as soon as their parents throw them in the water? ….I was that baby, honey.”

It’s hard to avoid the impression that Yasmin him/her/itself plays little part in this hackery and that the whole charade has been scripted according to the demands of the underlying generational steering programme.

I don’t see any anomaly between the Irish rioters, the negative reaction by Ireland’s “WEF Young Leader” PM and the downplaying of their seriousness by the Press. Riots are a sign of bad government, and the government of Ireland has been increasingly unfair to its populace. They allowed the country to be flooded with hot money (under WEF guise of “prosperity”) and with cheap foreign labour (under WEF guise of “compassion”). I read that hot money has made Dublin too expensive for the Irish to live there. And, in my opinion, many of those imported able-bodied young male “refugees” are ex-NATO ISIS mercenaries driven out from Syria. The Irish PM is a typical WEF “compassionate” (Fake Left) product of Herr Schwab’s school, in the Tony B.Liar (Fake Christian) mode of blatant hypocrisy — mouthing God but worshiping Mammon. No surprise that a “WEF Young Leader” accuses ordinary people — worried… Read more »

Folks here, unfortunately, have, it seems, a very weak knowledge of US history regarding treatment of POC, people of color. There is a misperception of black protest and rioting. Attached to the BLM “organization”, which is truly a setup by the PTB, is valid. However, justified rioting by black folks and supporters goes back to before the revolution and as long as slavery was an institution. While BLM and it’s self-serving, climber elite are worthy of condemnation, the objective of riots and the rioters has been the same for 400 years. Elimination of racism, establishment of equality, justice for all, and protection from psychopathic police and vigilantes attacking black people, are totally justified objectives. To cast protests against murdering cops as PTB setups, and even insinuation that Chauvin, a multiple offender, was somehow not-guilty, is the worst kind of knee jerk reaction.

Indeed.

“The events of the [1921 Arab] riots [in Palestine] nipped this hope [of constituting a combined Jewish-Arab defence force] in the bud. The project was abandoned, and in its place a British Gendarmerie of five hundred men, most of whom had been in the celebrated Black and Tan Brigade in Ireland, formed to crush the Irish rebels 1920-2, were brought to Palestine. Their commander, Major-General Tudor, commented sourly that they had to leave Ireland because of the [Wilsonian] principle of Irish self-determination, and were sent to Palestine to resist the Arab attempt at self-determination.”

I went on the Independence Day march in Dublin in January 2015. Visits the famous sights like certain street corners, the General Post Office. Fellow marchers told me that Ireland still has a ‘provisional government.’

… in response to the riots, and it was announced that MMA star Conor McGregor was being investigated for ‘inciting hate’ over a post on X that he had sent the night BEFORE the stabbings.

Oh! I had no idea that Conor had posted that tweet before the stabbings. That makes what Varadkar is doing especially unjust.

One way or the other, I hope Conor sticks to his guns and becomes a rallying-figure for the long-suffering Irish public.

Once, while at work, I had a Chinese girl come looking for a blonde American girl whom she’d only met once. When I asked her to describe the girl, she replied that “I don’t know, those blonde girls all look the same.”

While English nationalism was the one nationalism it was ok to demonise people will find it hard now to understand how the ethnocentric nationalism of Irish republicanism has become so cucked the forces of globalism? To the extent that despite Irish lives being threatened by knife attacks, the people posting ‘Irish Lives Matter’ in West Belfast in response have now come under attack from so called ‘nationalist’ leaders in that community. Their central concern seems to be about denigrating any Irish people who have responded to these attacks with the police attacking those raising concern i.e. Conor MacGregor. I haven’t seen Mr O’Reilly engage here but it would be nice if someone from the republican background can explain just what has happened to Irish nationalism that it is now complicit in the destruction of the Irish demographic and happy to demonise those who once it courted. The only people I… Read more »

Yes indeed; Sinn Fein are the most pro globalist of all! It is truly bizarre, although I think there was always a Marxist element within Irish republicanism.

There were hardline Marxist republicans I agree, Brian Keenan springs to mind, but the policy was removing the more nationalist element to allow the political element to gain control. That was the shoot to kill policy of the 80’s.

But PSF and PIRA originally formed because of the failure of the Officials to defend catholic areas and we now have the modern day equivalent blaming locals being upset at Irish people being attacked from a new more modern threat.

Interesting how this plays out because the Irish rebel tradition is a strong one and I can’t see them standing for that for too long.

Varadkar seems determine to make things worse though.

Key to understanding Sinn Fein is the role of Adams and Mcguinness – who shaped Sinn Fein politically into what it is today. They did a great job in achieving their aims and mobilizing the nationalist population. What they jettisoned in the process was Catholicalism = previously the fundamentalist ideology of Irish republicanism. They became a ‘progressive’ force and left Padraic Pearse behind.

I’m not sure anyone really understood Pearse’ nationalism but regardless what you appear to be saying is that SF have supplanted the nationalist part of republicanism with a Marxist outlook? McGuinness was a Catholic IIRC so not sure that really adds up. But regardless to take your point at face value, isn’t that where SF came in, in the first place? The Official IRA had by 69 become a marxist talking shop under Cathal Goulding and when the crisis in the 6 counties kicked off they were unable to respond leading to people to label them as I Ran Away. Some 50 years later and SF have now trodden a similar path. Globalist forces now in place of the ‘brits’ are seemingly bent on replacing the Irish demographic with people with no ties or no rights to be there. That has no escalated into attacks on the Irish themselves and… Read more »

Sexual Assault Allegations – And Dropped Investigations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conor_McGregor Dublin sexual assault allegations In March 2019, The New York Times reported that McGregor was under investigation by the Irish police, following allegations of a sexual assault on a woman in a Dublin hotel in December 2018.[218] A second allegation of sexual assault was reported on in October 2019, regarding an assault on a woman in a car alleged to have taken place earlier that month.[219] In January 2021, after prosecutors declined to prosecute McGregor for the 2018 alleged sexual assault, a civil claim for damages was launched in the High Court. A spokeswoman for McGregor said in a statement that the allegations against McGregor were “categorically rejected” and that McGregor is “confident that justice will prevail” in the civil case.[220][221] In March 2022, the High Court made a pre-trial discovery order against McGregor in the case. The order requires the Gardaí… Read more »

Whilst there is a real concern against mass immigration, and it is definetly used as a problem-reaction-solution kind of tool, pitting weak groups against eachother, these “riots” like the blm riots seemed to get extreme amounts of press, which leads me to believe that they are as “organic” as the blm ones, someone sets a fire(metaphoricly speaking), on purpose or by chance(the assailant might even have been a government groomed putz, like the man behind the so called “Oslo gay hatecrime terror” of last year) useful idiots or state actors come in and egg on the situation and present the solution with “tougher hate rime laws or more surveilance “, You have to understand that both sides of the political spectrum are lead on by larping pied pipers that are often on the systems leash.

I don’t think it was fake, but you have to understand that security services have a bunch of mentally ill or vulnerable people on “retainer” if you will, they are groomed online by honeypot movements and fake online friends that happen to be intelligence agents or feds, this was pretty much the case of the aforementioned “Oslo gay pride terrorist”, and has been proven to be the case in MANY cases in the US, like this “famous” case where the FBI was caught out grooming a mentally disabled kid to become an “Islamic terrorist” https://archive.is/2kElc or this case where they gave a supposedly Schizophrenic man a vehicle and a fake bomb after grooming him into “right wing terror” online, https://archive.is/cnauQ even if this was not the case, these Dublin “riots” received plenty of attention and WHOOPS now there is new yer “hatecrime” and Surveillance laws, you don’t find this at… Read more »

These riots should get alot of press, just not the kind they’re getting. This isn’t any pitting weak groups against each other, this is about national sovereignty and the fight against the New World Order/Great Reset. Face it, a lot of people are pissed, evidently you aren’t.

So you are saying you believe the press to be independent harbingers of truth? You do realize what the mainstream press reports is what the powers that be want you to see, you haven’t learned that yet? Especially not the three last years. way to miss every point I made about fraudulent ass political movements and fed agitation. What I’m angry about you have no clue, But I’ll tell you one thing I’m not going to let someone manipulate my anger into ushering in the police state that they so desperately want by burning down a bunch of shit and smashing stuff that changes nothing,while the impact of what I think I’m changing is exactly the opposite. I don’t understand why you can’t grasp this kind of manipulation and think “things are like what you see in the paper or on tv”.

My point was plenty of those protesting, and you’re falling in line with the MSM when you label them “riots”, are rightfully disgusted with the state of their countries. People are pissed and they are fighting back.

And I have to say that “rightwing dissidents”(consumed by idpol like their cousins on the so called left) aren’t usualy the brightest lot.

They’re bright enough to know that the “Algerian” and “Congolese” etc. “Immigrants” aren’t Irish, not racially, not ethnically, not culturally, and they don’t belong in Ireland in any appreciable numbers, period. They’re bright enough to know that they’re being fucked over.
