What a load of revisionist nonsense, trying to woke wash the provos is not going to wash
Will it say anything about about Sinn Féin threatening to out Noel Maguire as gay if he didn't stand aside in Fermanagh and South Tyrone? I've asked Danny Morrison about this a few times over the years but he refuses to acknowledge the question.
Will the be a pot of boiling tar and a sack of feathers to maintain authenticity? Or is this more rewriting of history?
As someone who grew up in a Republican stronghold during the '80s and '90s, I can assure anyone who didn't that this is absoute, unadulterated nonsense.
Wasn’t always the case 😉
This is common knowledge. Danny Morrison even made a famous speech about it in the 80’s ‘ With the ballot box in one hand and a huge cock in the other, we will seize power in Ireland ‘
Republicans tarred and feathered gay people
Didn't the IRA tar and feather homosexual men as they were regarded the weak link?
He’s English and he’s telling people who grew up through the troubles that this was a thing ?? Load a bollocks making it up as he goes along with the Shinners as usual !! First I knew about it !!
Aye, no thanks 🇮🇪
Like the way they deliberately targeted and killed a cop because he was gay?
You should include them 2 gay lads who were beheaded recently without a peep. Show how republicanism was only ever doing it for votes
well, that sounds lovely
🤔
Provos for gays, brilliant 😂😂😂😂
Seven years to create this fiction 😅😅😅
Oh well, that's okay now because Sinn Fein has joined the WEF Davos cult. All previous murders rapes tortures an, protectionism are forgiven. They have found their perfect partners and can indulge in MOPEry until the cows come home.
What a load of wank 🙄
What a load of shite, you lot will try and cling to any wokery for extra votes, trying to whitewash the fact you killed women and babies in the vain pipe dream of a United Ireland.
I think that republicans probably hated gay men and women
There's literally nothing degenerate or shocking enough that the provos won't stick a fist in it to get some woke votes 🤣
Hahahahaha! WTF is this?
Irish republican terrorism's advice, direct from the Green Book. Not very indicative of sympathy towards the gay-lib movement, is it?
Didn’t they used to tar and feather homosexuals?
Allegedly, the perverts within the republican movement abused boys as well as girls and the terrorist wing did not discriminate between murdering men, women and children.
Sf are traitors and full of pedos .
Woke shit
You can’t be a revolutionary & a homosexual……fidel Castro
And Republicans in Londonderry often engaged in 'queer bashing' but jf there's a bandwagon to jump on, they be on it. The Provo think we all have short memories, as short as they appear to have.
Irish News helping out with re-writing history yet again.
What in the big hairy dick is this bullshit.
Is it an empty room?
No exhibition on who shot Lyra McKee dead?
Don’t know about that, but there is definitely a relationship between republicanism and child sexual abuse.
