Pet Peeves

Ya, I like both of them. Not a fan of Shapiro.

The Swappie ads that pop up before YouTube videos. Here's some shit I got for free. It's brilliant and amazing. Please give me more free shit.

The Grammerly ads are equally as annoying, possibly even more moronic, due to the yank element to them.

On an unrelated note - Dermot Bannon is an absolute fucking cunt and he must be stopped.

I may actually be confusing my Weinsteins here. Eric, Bret, Harvey...so hard to keep up!

[Caomhaoin]

Shapiro makes a lot of sense but he's not someone you'd go for a pint with.

Gavin McInnes makes the same point, huge demand for Nazis and 'fash', but they are largely non-existent or mislabelled. Proud boys for example, their leader is a Latino, but they are white supremacists, apparently, and a terrorist organisation 😂 in Canada. BLM, an actual terrorist organisation, has footballers in England kneeling down at their altar.

Conservatism is the new counter culture, and being a victim is cool. That's the world we live in now, happy days boyz.

I was called a fascist by the tattoo artist, a crusty 50kg little hoor with yoga pants and hairy armpits, whilst she she was giving me a tattoo, because I said that I wouldn't live in the Lavapies area because of the annoying Moroccans who engage in pickpocketing and harassment after dark there (an undeniable truth).

She did a good job in fairness to her though.

All roads seem to lead to someone more unbearable than either of them: Ben Shapiro.

Saw a video recently of a friend of Nkencho's showing various images and memes that she had been spammed with after his murder. Certainly no lack of supply there, and each one the kind of "hilarious" scutter KC would be only too eager to share here. There's no shortage of supply if you look in the right direction at the right time.

If it's in such bountiful supply, why would you have to go out of your way to look for it? That makes no sense whatsoever.

Conversely, there is a plentiful dose of anti-white racist guff éclaboussé all over the internet by various spastics, but sure you can't be racist against white people because they have power, that's the party line, right?

You can of course lower yourself even further into the murkier waters of your unbending loyalty to postmodernism by saying that I'm racist against Moroccans because I point out that in one area of Madrid they are pests (as anyone who lives there will attest to), but try to bypass the anecdotal evidence you are so keen for others to avoid.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Oh, seems we've justifiably had another charming post from KC deleted for overt racism. Did you see it Kev? Were you looking in the right direction at the right time? Or is it the right eyes you lack?

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

At the slightest excuse - Nkencho's killing, George Floyd's killing, or even just seasonal fruit pickers arriving in Ireland from Bulgaria - there is inevitably an explosion of explicit, highly visible racism. The problem, I think, is that if you are either contributing to that racism or else have a mental and emotional capacity to understand the world that is on a par with that of a small child and think the diverse expressions of racism are hilarious and worth sharing far and wide on public forums, then you won't see it for what it is. But this is what turns the empty claim on its head; the supply of racism is bountiful in part because the demand for it comes largely from within this mixed group of pro-active racists and cackling idiots. They want it, they make it, they get it. Then you have the likes of Shapiro, McInnes (though, he's pretty much just a cackling idiot tbh), Murray, etc., who literally have a vested, pecuniary interest in making believe like none of this exists. But it does, we've all seen it, it's just that not all of us have seen it for what it is and for the consequences it may have, or else we just don't care about the consequences.

Black kid commits a crime in Ireland, it's because he's a savage, like everyone who comes to Ireland from Africa. Group of white kids spit at and cause a woman to fall under a train, well, it can't be because they're Irish, and it can't be because they're white, so some other "more subtle" reason that doesn't encompass an entire ethnic group is pointed at instead. First case, racism; second case, not racism. Pretty easy to understand, right? And you will see this manifest over and over and over again, on a local or national or international scale, depending on the media interest given to the story. What more supply could anyone want?

[Caomhaoin]

An explosion of explicit racism is overstatement, grossly so.

There is no denying that racism or prejudice or what-have-you doesn't exist, but the scale of the issue is exaggerated and amplified to such a degree by 'free thinking' post modern ideologues like the boy posting above, up to and including forcing lexicographers to change the definition of the word that the man on the street is sick and tired of hearing about it.

Your anecdotes, I wouldn't even add evidence as a caveat, do not an argument make.

The biggest issue you have, however is your dismissal of superior intellects than your own as 'idiots', and to treat the other contributors to this board as little more than infants in need of re-education on this and god knows how many other subjects. This level of arrogance is on a level with extreme jealousy in the ugly characteristics stakes.

Hang on, didn't those little cunts who pushed the girl under the train get lambasted on her for being scum?

[Eoin McLove]

The scum who pushed the girl under the train were white Irish, so how does that case tie in to racism at all? They are shitebags from shitsville so that's one issue.

The black lad in Blancho who got shot had a different set of circumstances,  but ultimately he got shot for posing a prolonged threat to the guards who were trying to stop him.

The common factor in both cases might be their class.
But on the other hand, with the trainfucks there was no ludicrous and meaningless BLM march. From what I gathered (barring KC's predictable racist shite spouting) people's main issue here was the farce that black Irish have been somehow oppressed by DE MAN since time immemorial despite being here for five minutes. Who fucking wants all that chaos brought over here? Let's leave it to the Yanks who might at least have a leg to stand on with such claims.

Mental health issues were at play with Blancho, certainly. I'm sure there are all sorts of mental issues at play with the train cunts too.

That seems to be the long and short of it from my thick vantage point. But this endless fucking cry of racism is just a tedious pain in the hole.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Aye, that was my point Andy; the scum who pushed the girl under the train were lambasted for being scum, on an individual level, not because they were white. When black kids commit crimes, they are lambasted not only for being, as individuals, scum, but also for being animals who don't know how to behave because they are from Africa. This is what happens systematically whenever there is trouble caused by immigrants. That is the right-wing discourse, and it has always been so. I find it difficult to see Shapiro, Murray, etc., as anything other than pundits who aid the scape-goating (because, again, as has always been the case, that's what's going on; get the people to lay blame horizontally, not vertically).

Similarly, if you speak in such a way (I don't know if this was the case Kev, so it's just a hypothetical) as to make it sound you think pick-pockets are pick-pockets primarily because they are Moroccan, then yes, that is a race-based, so racist, and false, account of the facts.

[Eoin McLove]

Apart from Nixer 2, who was saying that? The opposite was true in that case. Black man having psychotic episode gets shot for prolonged stand off with the guards = white racism! What I saw being ridiculed here was the black community jumping on the BLM bandwagon because it was hip and trendy to do so. Surely that's deflecting attention from the real problem,  ie a kid falling through the cracks of the system and not receiving the treatment he needs. And that's more of a class issue than a race one. But inevitably it becomes another boring retread of left and right ideological views.

[John Kimble]

Oh, seems we've justifiably had another charming post from KC deleted for overt racism. Did you see it Kev? Were you looking in the right direction at the right time? Or is it the right eyes you lack?

Wow, you really are fucking tiresome. All that KC's post proves is that there are racist trolls out there, something which I think we can all agree has been well established.

[open face surgery]

And highlighting them in the way Chris does is the issue. A mountain out of a woke, stoner molehill. No denying that racism is there but everything is not the end of the world and racist. It's regressive and so very fuckin tiresome.

Kev's shite is equally as weakening and both come across as children. No insights, just self agrandising, pseudo-intellectual bickering. Pointless.

Just live your life and shut the fuck up.

Pet Peeve: all the above, and metal being the real off topic on a metal forum.

[Caomhaoin]

Passes the time of day. I recognise that it is bickering, and it's childish but I can't resist the juicy bait.

Delivery lad ringing me for a whinge that there was no-one to let him in, the doorman had gone home for lunch, it's my last delivery of the day, fuck sake, I can't  just be waiting around here. Here, I told you after 5.30 ya prick.
