Weird when you consider how little Jews we have in Ireland. Like, we only have one tiny Synagogue in Dublin. How exactly are they destroying this country?

You'll just drive yourself crazy trying to understand the logic behind the kind of moronic inbreeding racist idiots who put this flyer up. There is no logic, because they are just disgusting hate filled people. The only "reason" is that they need someone to blame because they won't take responsibility for how miserable they have made their own lives.

[–] STRIKINGdebate2 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wasn't trying to understand their viewpoint because I know they are just copying their views from the Internet. There's a big problem with lots of people getting the viewpoints from American politics and forgetting some of the US problems don't apply here.

You have to be a little careful: by sharing it here, even as something you are against, you have made the message travel farther than a few shitty printed leaflets. Nazis like games and double-meanings and codes because they know they can’t openly support posts like this, but the goal is always to “spread the message”. You may have inadvertently played into their hands.

“Hate Filled” is a near anagram for “The Failed.”

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd say "The Failled" still works.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife 4 points 1 year ago

"The Failed" with an extra "L".

As I always say, we fought a war over this. The whole world was involved.

Watch out for razor blades when removing

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's usually pretty rare but happens enough I don't remove bigots' stickers, only cover. Fucking sewing needles too

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Or take a metal scraper, usually possible to feel them out.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Screw driver or pocket knife works too.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I tend to use a metal scraper when doing this sort of neighborhood clean-up.

So far, haven't encountered any boobytraps, but it's not much inconvenience to be safe while removing garbage.

[–] MajorHavoc 4 points 1 year ago

A can of spray paint will do the job without touching it.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago

Just need to stick a larger sticker of Devine or some shit on top of it.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Go around and cover them up with antifascist posters. Bonus points if you manage to include screenshots of nazis/neonazis getting punched in the face.

It's the implication.

[–] MajorHavoc 15 points 1 year ago

There's a great history of comic book heroes punching Hitler that could send the right message, while still being fun and artsy.

I'm a little mildly infuriated that the picture of the thing I'm supposed to be reading is so small and sideways.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago

Weird when you consider how little Jews we have in Ireland

Easier to hate someone when you don't see them all the time at the bar, at the office, at the coffee shop...

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

Guess you need a few Antifa stickers now! ;)

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Print out pictures of cats and paste them over the top.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

I try to imagine who put them there. Someone who sneaks out at night, looking both ways before taping the antisemetic flyer down. Feels to them they are helping the world. Spends the rest of the day at the computer reading conspiracy theories, and preparing their next flyer.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

I just visited Auschwitz and Birkenau memorial camps in Poland, with the kids. Feels like never forget is always important to remember.

[–] adj16 13 points 1 year ago

My infuriation is significantly higher than mild

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (13 children)

That's sad, to still have this kind of ~~xenophobic~~ discriminatory content in 2023

there are cowards in Ireland?

[–] Hazdaz 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Are those actual real quotes? And if so... WTF??

[–] meiti 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is an abundance of stupid quotes from people of all kind on this planet.

These quotes are handpicked to hate, not to initiate discourse .

[–] Hazdaz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes I understand that, but if those people had a following and support from the government or a political party it becomes much more serious than if it's some random drunk after a Friday might bender.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Two of them did have a considerable following and political support. Fortunately, those are the two quotes that are made up.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

The first quote is real, but out of context. It is from a book by a young Jewish author reacting to antisemitic racial theory with... Jewish supremacist racial theory. It straddles the line between satire and seriousness; it's intentionally provocative.

The second is certainly not real. It's wildly out of character for Menachem Bagin, no attribution for it exists, it isn't mentioned in any reporting of any event he appeared at or in any biography of him... it's straightforwardly made up to suit an antisemitic fantasy.

The third quote is also fake; it was made up in the early 2000s, about a decade after the rabbi in question (who was very prominent to hasidic Jews) died. It doesn't make any sense in the context of Jewish theology or this particular rabbi's teachings, but it does sound something an antisemitic conspiracy theorist would imagine a Jewish rabbi saying.

Here's the thing: I'm sure there are plenty of very real quotes by Jews saying awful stuff about non Jews -- at the same time, whenever an Irish person says something idiotic, you don't expect every other Irish person to have to prove to you they don't share that opinion; that kind of behavior is basically the definition of bigotry.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Wait till you hear the third largest party in Poland is antisemitic
