Tucker Carlson, who now broadcasts his show on X, told his millions of followers that “the Irish government is trying to replace the population of Ireland with people from the third world.”
Former White House adviser and 2020 election conspiracist Steve Bannon, who is currently strategizing for former US president Donald Trump, responded to Carlson by declaring: “Ireland is a powder keg.”
Elon Musk, who this week told X advertisers to “go fuck yourself,” also weighed in, claiming on X that the Irish prime minister “hates the Irish people,” and agreeing with another far-right influencer who posted on X saying Ireland needed McGregor to run for office. “Not a bad idea,” Musk wrote in reply.
Let’s not pretend that Ireland hasn’t been US aligned since forever. Sure we’re neighbours and the US has a huge Irish diaspora. Hell we even used taxpayer money to refuel USAF jets on their way to the gulf wars despite being “neutral”.
I never met a single person here during the cold war that thought the USSR was anything other than an authoritarian hole that might wipe us off the map because we are next to the UK.
I always felt that Ireland remained “unaligned” all that time not because they really had no preference between the US or USSR, but because they could, under no circumstances, be seen as being aligned with the British.
Isn’t Ireland, by definition, a third world country?
What do you think the definition of third world is?
Initially it was anyone not NATO or Warsaw pact. That would make them third world.
Not US aligned or USSR aligned during the cold war

A nation neutral to the USvsSoviet posturing in the Cold War

What in hell do they hope to gain from stoking these fires?!
They want Irish conservatives to show U.S. conservatives that it’s possible to rise up and kill the normal people and get away with it.
That was in the very darkest corner of my mind, but I didn’t let it out. Jesus. I never thought America would come to this.
They’ve based their internal subconscious model of self worth on being anti-left. They’re just reactionary regressives.
