I think it’s safe to say that the lawless Right Wing will look for any excuse to demonstrate their lawlessness and commit lawless acts with impunity.

They want to act out so bad and express their terrible selves.

They wish to be a law unto themselves.

They embolden themselves by siloing all their information into a Right Wing echo chamber and before you know it, they are acting out on disinformation.

An entire city was burned because of these chucklefuck knuckle draggers who relied on morons to provide them news as well as context.

It all started with a knife attack in Dublin which left three young children in critical care as well as their adult caretaker who placed herself between the children and the attacker. A Brazilian immigrant riding his delivery bike came upon the scene and then used his riding helmet to neutralize the attacker.

Right Wing fascist pundits took to their various platforms and decided to attack all immigrants and pointed out that

Ireland is for the Irish

How nationalistic.

The City of Dublin was recently hit by throngs of hooligans and thugs who decided to take it upon themselves to express their rage and lawlessness.

Rioters torched several city buses, police vehicles, trams as well as damaged several store front businesses. They even attacked several firefighters who were battling the flames.

The biggest deployment of police took place to quell the violence that rocked Ireland who hadn’t seen this level of brutality in decades. Over five hundred people were involved.

Many of the far right rioters arranged the riot over encrypted apps like Telegram, WhatsApp and Signal.

And of course, who do we have to thank for fanning the flames?

None other than chucklehead Former UFC champion Conor McGregor who tweeted:

Ireland, we are at war.

And

You reap what you sow.

Way to go, Connor.

All of Ireland thanks you, no doubt.

After all that incitement, now he wants to set his sights on being president of Ireland with Elon Musk’s full-throated support. The narcissism is boundless.
