A lot of people also forget that the series is originally meant for kids. More easily readable graphics makes it easier for young kids to understand where to go and what to do. It's like people are completely ignoring that Pokémon at its core isn't meant for 30 year olds.

Probably helps the lad that was selling flares for a tenner locally on Facebook.

Yeah, it finally exploded. I don't know where you are, but here in Saggart it's been tense ever since the sale of the hotel was announced.

I don't think you realise what a powder keg Saggart & Citywest have been the last couple of months. I'm assuming they were trying de-escalation first with a minimal show of force. Most other protests here have been non-violent, even though the racists were out in force.

I doubt at this point they're going to break formation and risk further attack to directly arrest someone. The gobshites are filming and live streaming it all, so like with the city centre riots they'll probably round the scrotes up later when they're not in a mob.

They knew. Upstanding citizens informed them about Right Wing agitators coming in from Athlone and Cork announced on FB. I think they kept the Riot Squad out of it, in case they didn't lose the facade of a "peaceful protest" they announced.

Isn't the CPUSA effectively a CIA retirement home?

There's a pro wrestling concept called go away heat. That's when the bad guy isn't hated as the bad guy, but just hated in general and people don't like seeing them. You can have that with TV shows as well.

Some people here seem very keen on talking down to the men doing this and seem to forget that a lot of men on dating apps are barely getting any dates and are just desperate to get in front of an actual woman. Understandable when dating apps promise romantic happiness and deliver low self esteem.

Late 18th century it probably was a French Revolutionary that was seen as the antichrist.

Just let me ke Jay Leno, I never liked his "Aw shucks, I'm just a simple guy" routine. They should've kept Conan as host.
