    Atleast the replies and quotes are 90% good. Still the occasional anti-Russia shill in there. but damn. No matter how anti-communist Putin is, and under him Russia has become ussr-cry , at least they still hate Nazis. Can't say the same for any Western country (other than Ireland I guess).

      Ireland doesn't seem to mind Ukrainian Nazis. A broken clock is right twice a day. Doesn't mean it isn't broken.

        At least the MEPs they send to Brussels have from the start identified the Russo-Ukraine War publicly as a war ultimately stoked by Western destabilization, from its origins in 2014, which is cynically supported by the US because of the business investment opportunities in post-war devastated places.

          I remember people laughing about it for some reason, implying he's a hypocrite, but I dont remember the details. I was never under the impression he had much if any support in Ireland, alas, thankfully I dont know the opinion of every Irish person.

            Mick Wallace and Clare Daly are the ones you want to look up. They consistently have exactly the same position Hexbear has had.

              I am aware of Mick, he's the one who got mocked. Mind you, I had to move out of Ireland nearly a year ago, so maybe the moods have changed since (would be cool since I will be returning in a few months).
