We all know there is censorship & that speech isn’t free.
But he means is there legislation in place that is meant to protect free speech. Ireland is a Constitutional Republic, like the US. Our constitution specifies various rights.
Australia is an ex-prison colony. Apparently they have no equivalent. They wouldn’t be able to appeal to national or international law to uphold their Constitutional Rights because they don’t have any.
Even the UK has a Magna Carta.
I don’t know about Canada.
I’m in Dublin & I agree. All media are taking about is nasty far-far-far-right violence & how extremist sites like twitter have to be censored to stop people spreading extremist hate.
They’re saying as little about the stabbing of children as possible.
Media is supporting the State 100% and demonising the far-far-far-far-right who are so racist as to protest the stabbing of schoolchildren.
The usual opportunists jumped on and started damaging property & setting things on fire (bus, tram) after that.
So all the media is about the nasty fat-right violent rioting. And how all our immigrants now feel really unsafe.
As little as possible about the stabbings.
A lot of us wonder will they use this for the final push to get their Hate Speech Laws enacted. They’ve been going through the Oireachtas (our parliament) for a while.
Watch towers have give up on O’Connell St and Drew Harris has got water cannons from his mates in the north.
How severe are his symptoms? It used to be rare to remove these in Europe - tonsils only after recurrent bouts of infection & adenoids if blocking breathing. They’re part of the immune system - mucosal associated lymphoid tissue - that adds to mucosal defense of the gut tube & respiratory system. Nice to keep them if possible. They shrink with age anyway.
Ireland has just announced increased funding too. On top of taking so many in that close to 2% of the population is now Ukrainian.
Our National Debt is $50,000 per capita.
Yes, there are idiots who argue that increasing the population by taking in (often unidentifiable) refugees improved our economic numbers like debt per capita.
I’m in Ireland. US Navy is here for the weekend to play American Football. Might be irrelevant, but timing? Menace is fully in control here. There are some awake, but there is fragmentation & internal accusations of controlled opposition. Not much trust in groups.
I read somewhere that not only is there a fee per patient, but also a bonus at various % of the practice being vaccinated. So one child might be the difference between 69 or 70% of the practice, and the difference between a massive bonus.

I know. If you are treating people, whether surgery, medications etc you have a responsibility to learn about the operations, medications you are using or recommending.
Medical schools teach less and less biochemistry & pharmacology now though - more communications, psychology and “public health”.
So they are taught what to prescribe, but don’t fully understand mechanisms, potential adverse effects or how to read research papers properly.
A lot aren’t doing it knowingly. They’re doing it blindly, trustingly and as obedient order followers. That’s what gets you ahead in those fields now. There are practice guidlines, evidence-based guidelines, insurance companies & professional bodies that need to be worked with to stay in practice.
So a lot are blind, but still culpable. They are in roles with responsibility for people’s health, where people trust them with that responsibility. And most don’t know what they’re doing. They’re following the “experts”. Who must know damn well what they’re doing.
Things have… gone off the rails very quickly here in the past few years. The curriculum for school kids is… heavily pushing gender/sex/trans issues.
The Criminal Justice Bill is insane. Doesn’t define hate, and defines gender - I kid you not - as “ Gender’ means the gender of a person or the gender which a person expresses as the person’s preferred gender or with which the person identifies and includes transgender and a gender other than those of male and female””
Our legislation for years has used the term “gender” instead of sex. Including our equality act.
Our borders are open, we’re spending 2 million a day on migrants while being 240 billion in debt (official population is 5 million citizens here) and the State are also looking at introducing euthanasia.
