Its an amazing show but also kinda narrow, it follows the provisional IRA but shows very little of other irish factions or anything about the british/loyalist side

I think this Starmer goverment is the UKs last chance to prove to Scotland that the union makes sense, and I don't think it's gonna work out.
Scottish Independance in the next 10 years seems likely to me. You can't perpetually keep a progressive country inside an austerity-conservative union

I only ever listen to these 3 songs from it, but the fact that they released 2 such different albums on the same day (and the other was the best album of all time) was such a flex

Lol Podemos muy obviamente quiere arrebatar el protagonismo de la izquierda, y no pasa nada, es lo que tiene sentido que hagan, que otra estrategia tendrian? El 15m ya no existe, nadie esta en modo pueblo unido vs casta, Podemos esta luchando por el espacio de IU y les va bien

Im having an identity crisis right now and im listening to them intensely again after a few years of only being a casual listener.
It helps me feel like myself, discovering them at 14 molded my brain and now their songs bring back all the feelings of my adolescence

Other than the first few seconds I really don't think there's a difference if you arent looking for one

To be fair they aren't worse versions. A lot of good stuff has came out of the "from the vault" songs, and i don't remember any of the re-done songs sounding worse

Why GH5 over A7iii for video? I have a GH5 and assume the A7iii would be better for both outside of some specific circumstances

Not sure this is about trans people, i assume it's about an "ungirly" girl, but still an interesing lyric from 2005

And again, i respect your organizations history and I do want the legacy celebrated, but it just doesn't seem relevant to the present. The Dáil is nowadays considered legitimate by the masses and by the mainstream of republicanism, so do we not have an obligation to contest for power in it?

What does Ta Power have to do with anything? He was killed 40 years ago.
I just don't see how you can be the "vanguard of the working class" when you are a marginal irrelevant organization. "Sound bites" can have issues but you can't expect to reach the masses with 100 page PDFs and gun displays

I guess im asking why does the organization still exist at all instead of just merging into People Before Profit, it just seems like a role play to still be doing masks and guns in 2024 when times have changed and a mass movement is needed

I have huge respect for what the IRSP was, but behaving like this in 2024 seems like counterproductive role-play. There is no armed struggle anymore, so why aren't you just members of People Before Profit? Also, it seems like illegimate appropriation to call yourselves the movement of Conolly

The protestant working class of the North need to feel that their class interests are better served by a united ireland, both for us to win and also because thats the whole point of this cause

Yep. While the south is a tax haven without a national health service, there is no path to a united Ireland. People in the south need to get a left wing block (SF + socdems, especially) into power and really reform the state before there will be a mass movement for unity

Yeah as a HUGE hozier fan i think his two hits (take me to church and too sweet) are his 2 most out of character songs, but atleast Take me to church is good.

It's their best but everything they put out between 98 and 2005 is incredible.

I wish i could experience listening to that album for the first time again. I remember listening to it at 14 and getting 3 songs in before texting my friend saying i have a new favourite band (and they still are 7 years later)
