Fantastic piece, two takeaways:
-If the fascists agree with or defend you, YOU FUCKED UP, end of.
-Examine your own well-intentioned first responses to everything you read/see online: non-white/queer immigrants are generally the LEAST criminal and most marginalized populations every-fucking-where.

Re:Garron Noone.
So, l am an immigrant. I also happen to be a person who actually went to Garron's live shows, paid for the tickets, so I think it's fair to say that l'm his audience.
And I don't like how he linked immigration (and me) to the cities becoming "much less safe". Yes, he did that, he said that cities becoming less safe "not JUST because of immigration" which implies that immigration contributes to that as well, which is quite untrue in Irish case.

Oh, that’s the publicity I doubt Garron ever wished for.
It’s not the “haters” who are his problem now, it’s those who defend him, thinking that he is one of them.
Oh, Holy God above, that’s an abomination! 😳😲 No, no, NO & thrice NO again!
‘Horrifying tea footage.’ #GarronNoone
