Greta Thunberg arrested for holding a sign opposing genocide.
When peaceful protest is a crime, democracy is in deep trouble.

It’s not just what is said, it’s also what’s left out. The mainstream reporting (or lack of) on the hunger strikers has been shocking. This is just one example of an attempt to minimise the struggle and shape the narrative. Follow @Prisoners4Pal

I genuinely cannot understand how generation above me ended up here. We grew up idolising David Bowie and through him discovered Lou Reed and Iggy Pop. We lived through punk and post punk smashing gender norms in public. We watched Prince blur masculinity and desire. We danced to Boy George. We worshipped Grace Jones. Then came the flamboyance of the eighties where androgyny excess and self invention were celebrated. Gender bending was not a threat. It was art. It was freedom. It was cool.
So how did the same generation become so hostile to people simply existing outside rigid boxes. How did we go from celebrating difference to fearing it. This backlash does not come from culture or history. It comes from forgetting who we were and what we stood for. None of this is new. Get over it.

We're just looking forward to the draw for Europe Colm, Dalymount has been hosting everything from wrestling to Black Sabbath for over 100 years, Bohs fans dont need to approve everything that happens in the place.

Our 2026 away shirt, in partnership with @KNEECAPCEOL and raising funds for ACLAÍ Palestine. 🔴⚫️
Designed by the members of Kneecap in conjunction with Bohemian FC designers, the shirt pays homage to the unbreakable bond between the Irish and Palestinian people. 🇮🇪🇵🇸
To celebrate the release and two SOLD-OUT shows at Dublin’s 3Arena this week, shirts will be AVAILABLE AT DALYMOUNT PARK on TUES/WED (16th/17th December) from 1-7pm each day BEFORE anywhere else.
Sales will take place via the Merchandise Shop on the Des Kelly side of the stadium accessed via St Peter's Road.
The first 100 sales on each day will also receive a free limited edition Kneecap pin badge and a host of other activities will take place at Dalymount Park.
Remaining stocks (limited) will then go ONLINE for global sale on Thursday 18th December at midday. They will also be available from the Bohs Store at 10am on the 18th.
30% of profits from the shirt will be sent to ACLAÍ Palestine to fund the construction/fit-out of a community music studio to enable artists and musicians in the Aida Camp (Occupied West Bank) to be able to enjoy music at any level.

Old enough to remember Keith O'Brien / Woods claiming Catholics weren't really discriminated against in the north to a British fan of loyalist agents Billy Wright and Jonny Adair.
It's no wonder both he and the NP hide the role he plays in the party.

His understanding and framing of what culture is in reality. His cooption of left wing analysis of capitalism only to suggest those can be resolved via laissez-faire capitalism. His absolute partitionist blind spot on the north of the island and our history. It's all really weak.

If you’ve a problem with countries withdrawing from a music competition because one of those countries is committing genocide and dismembering children on a daily basis, you need to take a good look at yourself.

Workers mobilised last Friday for an @irishcongress organised Workplace Day of Action for Palestine.
It was a response to a recent vicious raid by Israeli forces on the offices of the @PGFTU2 & an effort to build for the @ipsc48 demo the next day.

We shouldn't have to sign petitions every day but this is where we are - takes two minutes and sends a signal.
'Each time a space disappears, so does a community. Dublin doesn’t just have a housing crisis it also has a culture crisis.'

Needs an intervention, and fast. @ComplexDublin has been used by all types of orgs - from DCC to political parties to theatre producers, club promoters + much more, as well as countless artists. Is key cultural infrastructure. For now please sign petition: my.uplift.ie/petitions/save-…

Today, SIPTU members stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people. 🇵🇸
Trade unions in Palestine need our support more than ever.
Palestinian workers continue their brave struggle for freedom and justice.
We must answer their call and end complicity in oppression.

Dublin city council have had information about their Christmas lights up for weeks.
Can't believe there's still people falling for the faux outrage over it 🤣

Each year against the odds we've managed to hit this target.
Having seen the hated and venom directed at some centres this year hopefully we can once again cheer up some kids in international protection and homeless accommodation this Christmas.
