Lefties.

The two types of people who dominate the class that are "allowed" to talk about politics are Dublin's lower/middle-lower class, who've been riled up by socialism, and the Dublin or wannabe-Dublin upper/upper-middle class, who use Anglophone/EUrophile leftism as another foreign culture to bludgeon the true Irish with.
Then I suppose there's the Gaeltacht-sphere, but they're tied at the hip with bourgeoisie-ism (the other half being the native "parish pump" issues of the Gaeltacht).
All of them have the misfortune of being dominated by women, though, and thus tending towards the same type of what we would call "leftism".

Heritage and culture. Of course arrogance is a big part, which is why you still Mexicans proudly waving the Mexican flag in the US. But that being said, you wouldnt see an American doing the same in Mexico. The soccer fans have a chant where they say "And now you see, now you see, we are the locals once again." Regardless of where they play, the fans are there, and in big numbers.

Im not surprised only bad things come to mind when you think of Mexico though, this website isnt too fond of the country or its people. I say youd have to visit a country and interact with the people in order to really get a feel from them. I couldnt say much about France besides what ive seen in the media, which is mostly baguettes, and more recently, terrorist attacks.

>I will never understand this meme. Why is being a Centrist portrayed as edgy when it's anything but?

It's a format that makes fun of people saying contradictory, obfuscatory or stupid things by reducing their statements to very simple language and showing it next to silly-looking faces.

In this example it's making fun of people who look at right or far-left opinions and say "ha ha, I believe nothing other than what's socially approved of, so I'm obviously smarter than those who stick their opinions above the parapets".

>>67248985
So you believe the opposite is true?
What do you think the case is?

Do you think right-wing politics are allowed or supported here, especially among the media-"intellectual" political classes I described?

It's artificially inducing the self-righteousness that comes from edginess though. Righties and lefties will say something genuinely edgy, but centrists just insert themselves to say that everything "edgy" is wrong for being "edgy", while expecting their unprincipled naysaying to be "edgy". Only a positive statement unwelcome in "polite society" is edgy.

This is where I fundamentally disagree. A centrist would be unlikely to say anything edgy by definition while also not perceiving anything they say to be edgy (unless they don't consider themselves to be a centrist, which isn't the case in the original picture). Only extreme Lefties or Righties would consider anything a Centrist would say to be edgy.

"Centrists" get notions of being "above partisan politics" and hate anyone who has convictions on any issue as "ideologues". They get delusions of grandeur and think the fact that they have equal pressure from both the right and left is a sign that they have found "the happy medium", and that they are the only ones who can "think independently".

Righties and lefties don't actually consider centrists to be edgy, they only call out edgelord posturing from centrists because they are used to being or battling edgelords in their own camp and the opposite camp.

>Are most micks in Ireland lefties or right wing?
Ireland doesn't fall under the left/right paradigm.

There are some lefty parties but they are tiny and meme tier, usually electing one or two TD's. They constantly squabble with each other and bitch about muh austerity until they collapse..

Then there are a handful of right wing parties who, rather than squabble with each other end up fighting within the party itself and collapse that way.

The vast majority of people vote for the main parties FF, FG, SF and Labour.

FF and FG are basically centrist populist parties. They do not have any ideological convictions to speak of and their policies are aimed at stitching together disparate social groups in order to win elections. They generally see what ideas are popular among the public, wait til they gain critical mass and then implement them, or hold a referendum. They then take credit for this. They go in a cycle where whichever party is in government implements pro-business policies and which ever is in opposition adopts pro-worker rhetoric. they switch places every election. They are both corrupt. They sound shit but it's better than the culture war shit you see everywhere else so meh

Labour are the same, though they do not have the civil war baggage and are rarely in government, only ever as a junior coalition partner. The one rule of Irish politics is never be a junior partner as you will get rekt for the next three election cycles.

Sinn Féin are a strange bunch. They are very populist, their number one issue is the North and they wil do anything to further the cause of reunification. They were literally the IRA. They are unashamedly nationalist and vocally socialist. They are strongly-anti-racism and probably the most "refugees welcome" party but are also usually the ones to defend the working class when they are accused of racism and promote national pride etc. They're a lefty party who attract a lot of disaffected right wing voters. It's weird.

Ireland is probably the only country where centrists are partisan so if people on the internet are saying this then they have a point.

Ideologues cluster on the left and the right. There are basically no relevant centrist ideologies anymore, and hasn't been since classical liberalism.

>They get delusions of grandeur and think the fact that they have equal pressure from both the right and left is a sign that they have found "the happy medium", and that they are the only ones who can "think independently".
It's not that centrists have found the "happy medium" it's that they are the only ones looking for it in a lot of countries. Again, Ireland is bizarro-world so things are a bit different here.

Classical liberalism is leftist, within the contexts in which it developed. It's right wing relative to the more successful modern ideologies that grew out of the fundamentally left-wing assumptions that underpinned classical liberalism. Even today those few "classical liberals" out there are still called "far right" for not being 110% in favour of multiculturalism and forcing people to bake gay "wedding" cakes.

>it's that they are the only ones looking for it in a lot of countries

They're all about finding "the happy medium" relative to what actual political thinkers (of whatever level or quality) think. Both left and right hate smug "centrism" because honest people from both sides are out to find "the" truth, not out to hobble movements against aspects of the status quo.

>Ireland is bizarro-world

In the past, it was "bizzaro-world" in the sense that Irish politics weren't globalist kabuki plays but particularly Irish kabuki-plays. That's less true nowadays, but for the lack of a monolithic leftist party.

>>67250534
It's not about what centrists say, since they say nothing of note, it's about how they present what they say, as being edgy.
>>
>>67250615
That wasn't my point.

There has been lots of emigration to Scotland from Ulster, both Protestant and Catholic. The Scots today who are members of the OO and support Rangers are the descendants of those Protestants and inherited their politics.

So you can see the irony of their purporting to be British while inherently fixated on the Irish as, funnily enough, a consequence of being Irish.

It's genuinely funny.

>Classical liberalism is leftist, within the contexts in which it developed.
It was left of centre in it's traditional context, and is right of centre in the current context but in absolute terms it's the closest thing to a purely centrist ideology.

The only coherent definition of left vs right refers to the support vs abolition of heirarchy as an end goal.

The purest manifestation of centrism would ultimately be pragmatically balancing heirarchy/equality in support of a third goal, whether that be happiness, gdp growth w/e.

Classical liberalism supports a fluid heirarchy based on unrestricted competition, in support of the ulterior goal of "liberty". So not exactly the same thing but the closest major ideology I can think of.

>>67251156
People vote for "centrists" because centrists threaten the least amount of established interest while promising the most for the most voters. It's the natural outgrowth of "democracy", it corrupts both left and right, and temporarily co-opts anything it can't corrupt or destroy, while ultimately drifting towards what it "allies" with, which in modern times is the left.

>>67251279
All decent points.

But really I think at this point that the philosophical roots of liberalism are rejection of "hierarchy" (ie: "authority"), and the fact that it shows restraint is 25% due to the historical accident of having developed in England and 75% the natural dilution of the policies resulting from the philosophy underpinning the ideology.

And definitions of "left vs right" are very difficult to properly pin down. I think yours is better than the common but laughable one of relativism (as you see in people calling the communists within the USSR "right wing"), but the one I think describes things rather aptly without being too disagreeable or biased to either side is "right = equilibrium , left = progress", based on the approach people have to how society should be "organised" and what its ideal state is.
"Equilibrium" might sound more like "centrism", but desu I don't think "conservatism" for conservatism's sake is the definition of right wing, and I don't think "centrists" have the convictions to define their approach to anything beyond "I'll always be the Vicar of Bray".

>>67251352

Depends how you define "of note".
They definitely do declare a position when they have to, but they only do so when that position has been set by those who speak from a position of having made their minds up.

Towards economic neo-liberalism and globalism.
Socially, however, they definitely have tended left, which is what matters more, and is what "left versus right" can be more easily defined in. http://www.thejournal.ie/tds-senators-marriage-referendum-2102599-May2015/

They've both done what can get them the most power; economically, through control of access to the money-making bodies by supporting what those people want to get advanced, and socially, through the control of the cultural controllers, by doing the same thing for them.

>>67251817
Centrist parties don't go on political "crusades", they support the movements that generated them by swooping in after the point where they have critical mass to "win", but before they have enough pent-up desire and influence to unseat them as the "corporations" or bodies that get to have the veto on what gets passed or not.

I think that's as good a definition of mine but has just as many failings. For example the case of reactionary monarchism, traditionalism etc. can hardly be described as in favour of equilibrium given the complete revolution of society that would entail. At the same time they are considered by many to be the OG right wing.

So yeah, in essence I don't know if there's any definition of left/right that works.

> I don't think "centrists" have the convictions to define their approach to anything beyond "I'll always be the Vicar of Bray".
I think due to the nature of centrism that will always be a significant cohort of centrists, but it doesn't cover the camp entirely, and it doesn't do much to describe the political thought behind centrism

>>67252007
>Socially, however, they definitely have tended left
I disagree. They have grown more neo-liberal, not more leftist. Contempt for the poor and the general "dolescum" attitude is rampant.

Gay marriage for example is irrelevant from a leftist perspective. It is an attempt to integrate gay people into the existing social structures, that does nothing to combat the structures themselves.

I'd also dispute that it's easier to draw the line between left and right on social issues than economic.

Good point. Though of course the natural response to that would be that a dislocation away from equilibrium requires an "equal and opposite" force in the other direction.

>So yeah, in essence I don't know if there's any definition of left/right that works.

It'd take a whole book to write about it, referencing every philosopher who's ever been used in support of one side, discussing the philosophical points that underpin ideologies and the outgrowths of ideology, and at the end of it, everyone else would think the book was wrong and write their own book on it.
It's like pornography, you know it when you see it.

>I think due to the nature of centrism that will always be a significant cohort of centrists, but it doesn't cover the camp entirely, and it doesn't do much to describe the political thought behind centrism

Agreed. Proponents of monarchy/authoritarianism would say that having an institution that can keep ultimate power out of the hands of "centrists" and minimising their incentive and ability to mislead the public would separate that type of system from democracy or similar political structures more open to the "Peter principle."

P.S. Much of the formal thought behind "centrism" is what is called "Burkean conservatism". Though most don't believe such things on an intellectual level, and a lot of those that have an intellectual justification for how they do politics actively believe in the "Fabian" school of socialism.

>>67252781
Viewed as a hard rule of how things are, it's detrimental, seems useful as a shorthand for giving an impression of what people believe though. How do you discern political views then?

Well, all of what you said is true, but you're coming from a principled "leftist" position, which is very rare so normally not how I address people.

I think because of the ideas of "biodeterminism" which are making a comeback, the so-presented paradigm of "economic issues" isn't what's important in solving the malaises in "the west", given the hybridisation of big-business capitalism and big-state socialism in these states.
Questions of "society" literally comes down to where the human individual fits in, and society only exists because humans need to be together to reproduce, and to a less essential degree, to acquire sufficient resources to survive.
So the "dystopian" vision in Brave New World is a more fundamentally altering form of human social organisation than something like 1984, which doesn't even hold up well because its system is built on working actively against the most basic human drives rather than directing and controlling them.
Accordingly, I think there's a lot of truth to the so-called "reactionary" view of things, where people say that there's a "break" in how humans engaged intellectually with the world after atheism and materialism became the dominant force in philosophy, to the point where there isn't much of a coherent sense of what it is to even be a human anymore, let alone how human society exists.

You might disagree, but it's how I see things, and I definitely think the mainstream current (in both "left" and "right") fail to.

>>67252943
Some truth in that but I think the principled leftist isn't a dumb guy and don't think I am either, so what are we missing out on that you're implying you haven't?

So as a result of the election I started looking into the rumor that Ireland was offering refugee status to Americans.

http://www.irishcentral.com/news/politics/remote-irish-island-seeks-americans-fleeing-donald-trump-presidency

This is all I found, but nothing on how to actually apply as a refugee. And no, I'm not some unskilled teenager; I have a four-year degree and am a semester away from a Master's (which I'd hopefully finish in Ireland).

Irishbros, what do?

Look at schools/colleges with positions open, even if it's a supply role. You're gonna need a formal conditional offer to apply for a working visa. You'd have to renew it every 6 months or so but I imagine that can be as simple as crossing the NI border for a single day and returning.

Not sure if this is what you're referring to but I think determinism in general isn't being addressed, whether that's genetics, climate change, infrastructure, whatever. People seem to think that if they implement the correct policies, free/trade vs protectionism or whatever then they can fix everything. I'm very sceptical of that notion and I think we're all just along for the ride in a sense. Obviously differences can be made but the illusion of control is much more present than the reality.

I don't disagree,but funnily enough that sounds a lot like the Marxist theory of alienation, despite Marxism being fairly materialist.

loyal to all in the trust that he bears,

Steadfast and calm and brave

now we resound the call
there will be room for all
who stand by our country
O’Duffy Abu!

Stern is the fight that we now do engage in
both justice and truth will our motto were be
Erin now helpless nigh bankrupt and broken
we must rise up to be prosperous and free

Up with Saint Patrick’s flag!

Well, we'd natively call them "knackers", but that's associated with travellers as "muh hate crime word", and "chavs" are honestly worse than knackers, and there'd be a handful of words for Dublin city scum, but our "chavs" are definitely a development that, if not directly foreign, are due to the creation of foreign social conditions, and not confined to Dublin.

They just live differently because they inherited that system from either the English or Norman disinheriting of them, and the powers that be want to turn Irish hostility towards roaming bands of unemployable criminally-tendencied nomad clans into a "native American" narrative to use against the actual Irish while enforcing "West-Brit/East-American" crap on us from Dublin.

They're not an ethnic group.
They're just a group of families who are locked into a lifestyle that kept them apart from the rest of us and recently got made obsolete by industrialism, and instead of reintegrating them into Irish society, the elites want to play another sick joke on us by turning them into actual gypsies while treating the inevitably hostile relations between us and them as if it's some kind of "muh white colonialism" sob-story, in our own fucking country, against our own fucking people, by our own fucking people.

Before abortion became the cause celebre, the privilegedpoof/feminist lefties in this country made a stink about "direct provision", where """"asylum seekers"""" are prevented from working in the private sector and are just given "barebones" stuff by the government while the government "checks" their status.
They say "but the system was only supposed to support them for a short time to decide if they could live here or not", but they have made it a foregone conclusion that it would be "a human rights violation" to kick these people and their anchor babies out, so the government just takes the path of least resistance and turns these people into a totally dependent and resentful underclass, who will go on to agitate the next generation of the non-bán (Nanban?) population into becoming the BLM we wuz niggers like in England.
