Things are terrible but it is significant that there is now a public conversation in Ireland about how our economic dependency on the US binds the Government to certain positions - including material support for Israeli genocide.

@orladediez It has become very clear how Ireland's government is complicit in the genocide in Gaza and the ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, despite their posturing, because money is more important than human lives, human rights or human dignity. #IrelandComplicityinGenocide #palestine #Gaza_Genocide
@crowmack Gaza pulled back the curtain on an intricate economic system that fails most people. It’s time for a society-wide rethink of a system that profits (directly/indirectly) from violent occupation/displacement in oPT AND a spiraling housing crisis at home. Airbnb is one visible tip--which incidentally hires PR firms that in turn lobby gov’t & fund candidates. One big spaghetti mess that paralyses political will.

@orladediez That's so true. We supposedly elect our governments to represent us, but they're free to pursue their own agendas. #Gaza_Genocide #eucomplicity #occupiedterritoriesbill #IsraeliWarBonds
@crowmack In EU, some countries are more *undemocratic* (and thereby more unequal) than others.
