there is also a hugely massive 'big tent' pro-palestine movement being pushed in both the uk and ireland from the middle east as you may have seen with all the youtube ads for gaza, tiktok vids etc. so with all those old ties ireland had with palestine they are sucked up into it. any changes to that dynamic, like supporting hamas or palestine being codword for being pro-mass immigration instead of a soveriegnty issue in their own countries , are being ignored for the most part right now because there is no way to debate that part in public.
