In fairness, that smidge of treason was "disagreeing with the Church and Irish Governments"

Successive Dáils were absolutely at fault for the Church-run institutions and their abuse, but that doesn't take away from the fact that the Church was the one actually doing these crimes

Also they very much broke the law, this sound is just for the meme

You CANNOT convince me that Dev and McQuaid were not proto-typical Heathers /j

Helena Molony was a prominent Irish republican, feminist and labour activist. Once described as "the patron saint of lost causes," Molony was a revered actor in the Abbey. She fought in the 1916 Rising and became the second woman president of the ITUC.

I will forever be mad at De Valera and O'Duffy
Clarification:
There has never been a government in Ireland without either FF or FG (or their predecessors) holding significant power or leading.
However, coalitions sometimes dilute their influence, especially in:
1948–51
1954–57

I also have personal beef with Dev, but that's not exactly unique in Irish history /lh

I have personal and historical beef with the RCC, but Paul Lavelle was an icon
