Hi, Cato. Well I'm living abroad at present, but if I were at home I would join The National Party and get involved. I don't agree with everything they say, but I think they're the only viable political party going in terms of Irish Conservatism at present.

I'm going to sound a maybe controversially elitist note here, but doesn't all this simply prove the vast majority of people simply think and feel whatever they're told to think and feel? In the 50s Gay Pride couldn't even have been an idea in the head of the average Irish person. Today it's gay this, that and the other thing. Politics and culture are driven by elites and those with power and influence, that's all it tells me. Which is why Irish Conservatives need to be more active in trying to acquire that power instead of moaning from the ditch. To a certain extent society is conformist, thats why its a society, but it isnt strictly a 'WE SAY YOU NEED TO THINK THIS WAY, SO NOW YOU SHOULD HAVE TO' state of affairs, Irishmen are not so psychological authoritarian as say, the Swedes are, that that could work. We've changed drastically in the bast 25 years as a society thanks to it, but we all forget for most of the past 80 prior to 1990 we've been systematically suffering exterior attack culturally, nonstop, from the anglosphere, as well as interior attack from the violent collapse of the Catholic Church's moral authority at a psychological, (and the more you look into the state of the Catholic Church both worldwide and in Ireland, this collapse was no accident,t here are forces within the Church actively trying to use it and its resources to its own end, either uncaring of the damage their desires do to the church, or do so with the EXPLICITE INTENT of undermining, weakening and attacking the Church and those who rely on it) subversive form of warfare the Irish have never experienced before, with more and more evidence mounting its been a co-ordinated effort driven attack by exterior progressive forces, the same kind we see coming to the forefront of all these recent referendums to squash conservative voices and promote progressive ones in those traumatizing media blitzes we all remember. For goodness sake, we now have near conclusive evidence that Google actively participated in manipulating the Abortion referendum. Remember all those claims about pro-life voices being censored online and whatnot? Turns out that was exactly what was happening a la the recent Veritas exposé on Google and other ongoing Big Tech leaks and whistleblowers: www.projectveritas.com/2019/06/26/blacklisted-leaked-youtube-doc-appears-to-show-election-interference/Even flipping Pinterest is internally labelling Christian sites on its network as pornography to prevent users from seeing them and censoring pro life sites, and I barely know anyone who uses the damn thing. Even with all of that consistent propaganda, there is still a significant segment of the Irish population that is revolted by all of this, we're all aware of it, and how demoralised they are and how hard the whole machine is working to keep us demoralised. We shouldnt be surprised the more deracinated and secular folk who are born and raised in this nonsense are entirely taken in by it to greater or lesser degrees, the Irish entered a war in the 20th century the likes of which we have never, ever participated in before, and we did so with the mistake of having a democracy at the time. Its actually a miracle we held out as long as we did, but not a wonder we collapsed as hard as we have, however much of a shock it came as to all of us. Had they came at us with guns and bombs, they never would have had this victory over us, but they came at us with money and debt and like the poor man who won the lottery, we were unprepared to handle the situation well.

I find this a fascinating and revealing article, which shows that many prominent gay rights activists are vanguard revolutionaries who want to overthrow all social norms. Thatchell is bitterly resentful that many of those homosexually inclined just want quiet, bourgeois lives. Gay Pride sells out

At today's Dublin Pride march the head of the Gardai Drew Harris marched alongside the Taoiseach and several cabinet members. This is as establishment as you get. When you factor in all the big multinational sponsers it is no wonder that many Gay activists regard the modern parade as a sell out to commercial and official interests. A small alternative parade was held today in opposition to the main official one.
When you consider the original Stonewall riots were sparked off by drunk drag queens in New York mourning the death of Judy Garland who turned on the NYPD( who had a habit of raiding the mafia owned Gay bars if they weren't paid bribes.) , the police presence in Dublin today is ironic.
Naturally all this jumping on the rainbow bandwagon was in the name of inclusion and celebrating diversity. There are roughly 5% of people or less in the LBGTQ community in most European countries.
Around 33% of Irish citizens are pro life. That's a big minority. I wonder will Gardai and ministers turn out to next week's national pro life march? What could be more inclusive and diverse than embracing that genuinely despised and reviled minority?

There was an interesting discussion about June becoming Pride month and how Pride marches have taken over catholic devotional practices like Eucharistic possessions etc over at the Irish Catholic Forum.
I have been struck at the similarities with another matching tradition :orangeism. Some may remember the extreme tension and standoffs that occurred every summer when the loyal orders insisted on their rights by marching on the Queen's highway in Northern Ireland. The fact this annoyed the local nationalists was a bonus. In fact annoying your opponents may be the main reason for marching.
Gay liberationists would probably object to being bracketed with Orange men but marching does send out strong signals about what ideology is in charge. It involves rituals, dressing up and has a powerful mythology that the marching reinforces. Marching is deeply ideological. The last major Dublin riot occurred when Republicans rioted to prevent a Love Ulster/Orange March in Dublin.
Similarly Catholic/conservative marches have declined in recent years. I noticed posters about the recent Dublin pro-life March were left unmolested on lamp posts and there were no counter protests unlike the repeal campaign. The hard left now seem to have written off the pro lifers as irrelevant. One of the archproaborts Brid Smith TD graced the 2nd Transexual March which started off a few hours before, with her presence instead.

The Troubles were horrible, but the rituals and murals and folklore they created are fascinating. It's a shame that it so often takes war and conflict to bring out such things, and that they are discarded afterwards.

This is a couple of months old, but still. This country has a lot of scum in it. The sheer aggression of some of them, and unmasked at that (as in Antifa masks, not covid ones) goes to show the state this country is in.

"Rugby league has found itself at the centre of controversy amid news seven Manly Sea Eagles players could boycott their next match because they are refusing to wear the club's new Pride jersey. the team is set to become the first team in [Australian] rugby league history to wear a jersey celebrating sexual inclusiveness when they take on the Sydney Roosters on Thursday night. But reports say players are objecting to the move on religious grounds..." (the west australian jul.26.'22)
It takes a little digging into the lesser known news sites to confirm what most Australians would have guessed- the seven players have Polynesian names,while in the official image released by the club,the (admittedly,quite discretely rainbowed) shirts are modelled by three of Manly's caucasian players (one named Keiran). Of course everyone would have known the seven ethic players were devout Christian when they asked them wear the thing, but inclusiveness tends to only apply to some people;remembering Snowball,Napoleon and Squealer,this is hardly new.

I wish that a few Catholics would do the same in some high profile sports. It shows how insipid modern Catholicism has become amongst the younger generation of sportspeople. In this respect I would put us behind Muslims and a few Protestant fundamentalist types, but just ahead of the cringeworthy Anglican Church. The only Catholic sports star who might put up a protest would be someone like Tyson Fury the boxer. Admittedly I don't follow Sport as much as before but I stand to be corrected if there have been any Catholic protests like this.

Homosexuals are the reason for the spread of monkey pox. Monkey pox can only be passed through "very close contact" (sex). Homosexuals dogs are now catching monkey pox. A homosexual couple in Paris have a dog that caught monkey pox, and now has anal ulcerations. You learn something new every day.

To be precise men having sexual relations with men appears to be the main direct cause of transmission of monkey pox , often via group parties, saunas etc. These activities were frowned on during the Covid emergency and gay saunas were shut down. It is now apparently homophobic to suggest that people might exercise sexual restraint during the current health emergency. Homosexuals per se are not the the reason for monkey pox. Some gays are monogamous or even celibate. Lesbians do not appear to spread the disease.

Well, yes, I was trying not to go into too much gory detail as to how it spreads.
In other news, has anyone heard there was a man put on suspended leave from the school he works at because of remarks he made about "trans" people at a work-related dinner? I think it was some special occasion, and some mentally challenged student took issue with it, leading to the current situation. He's now in jail because he refused to stay away from the school. You could argue it was his fault for not staying away, but imagine being put on leave in the first place because you challenged a depraved and perverted ideology that is now actively coming after people's children. A couple of weeks ago, I saw the results of "transitioning" surgery performed on young children. Utterly vile. We're talking zombie/Frankenstein's monster results on some parts of the body.

His heart is in the right place, and I admire his courage, but he's not going about it the right way. There was a good article about it on Gript.ie: gript.ie/ten-thoughts-on-the-enoch-burke-mess/The only line I disagree with in this article is: "The world will change neither for the better, or the worse, depending on what pronouns you use to refer to a single teenager." It will. It's those small things that make huge cumulative changes.
