Ireland: Government Plans to Dump 280 Invaders on Village of 165 People

You know the “it’s so over” and “we’re so back” meme?

Yeah that meme was fucking gay and I hated it and I hate anyone who ever used it.

I am actually on-board with similar memes, such as “billions must die” and “nothing ever happens.” I’m billions-pilled on nothing-maxing, you might say.

But over/back sucked.

Regardless of the fact it sucks, that’s the story of the news out of Ireland. Half of it is “Irish run out immigrants with a Hilux” or “some Irishman did some thing.” (“Some people did something” was really an underrated meme by a really underrated Congresshijab.) The other half is “village buried alive.”

Remix:

In a strategy seen in many Western countries, Ireland’s government is looking to move more and more migrants into the countryside, with one of the latest schemes focusing on shifting 280 asylum seekers to Dundrum, a village in Tipperary County with a population of only 165.

The move has sparked outrage from the local community, which is embroiled in controversy over the new refugee center. If all migrants are relocated as planned, their population would be 70 percent higher than the local population.

I don’t think most people can picture a village of 165 people. Few people live in such villages these days, or ever did live in one.

So, imagine if 28 million migrants were dumped on New York City.

(The Biden migrant dump on NYC is probably about a million. No one knows, but that’s an estimate I’ve heard. But also, millions fled NYC during the Covid era and it’s unclear how many just didn’t come back, so there was some free space.)

The government plans to convert the Dundrum House hotel into an accommodation complex that will house 280 migrants, with similar plans sparking widespread protests and riots in the Dublin suburb of Coolock just yesterday, with locals there setting fire to construction equipment and battling with police.

Residents expressed shock at the scale of the proposal, and a public meeting to discuss the community’s concerns saw 300 attendees show up from other towns in Tipperary County, according to a report from the Irish Independent.

People have been peacefully protesting for a while with no results, which shows that democracy is working as intended

This controversy also comes after major battles in towns such as Roscrea and Clonmel over large-scale refugee centers, which resulted in headline-grabbing incidents, including several arson attacks on the Clonmel site.

Dundrum residents have called for “common sense” in determining the scale of local accommodation plans. Local politicians are also enraged by the proposal, noting that the town does not have the resources or infrastructure to house so many new people, especially when local services are already stretched to their limit.

Well.

At least they’re protesting.

But, I mean, at some point, you have to realize you live in a democracy, and therefore “protesting” doesn’t actually do anything.

What the government responds to is… well, everyone knows what they respond to, and I totally and unequivocally denounce it as pure evil.

Nonetheless, it is the only thing a democracy government responds to.

If you just go out and hold a sign, they will just laugh at you and send the cops to beat you with rods.

In better news – new fire at the Coolock invader center that we wrote about a couple of days ago
