Hanging up on Gemma after having her on the line all evening promising the perfect legal advice for just 10k 😔

cormac posted:Yeah, but your assuming that the point of the court case is to win rather than attract patreon or gofundme donations. The grift is what they care about, not the legal case. So the whole point of the case was to attract attention to their cause, or grift money from people who believe that people’s rights are being suppressed? But they know that the case is a no hoper, so they are going to get stung for costs by the State, potentially running into the realm of 50-250 Grand, because multiple arms of the State have had to defend themselves. So Gemma think that she will save some money by not hiring her own council (which will be smaller than the State’s fees) but will still come out on top money wise even after paying the bill for the State for this failed case. Like how much grift money does she think she is going to get here? Ireland’s not like the US where there are millions of rubes who think masks are the first steps to the NWO. Southpaugh posted:Don't worry she's not gonna read it man. Oh probably not. Like I know Gemma herself doesn’t have an account here. But I’m sure there are plenty of people who lurk and read threads without posting, and there is no guarantee that those people are not 5G whackjobs, and it gets passed onto her or someone like her. At the moment I’ve been out of work for nearly six months now as the majority of the courts are closed. And while I’m collecting Unemployment payments, I’d prefer to be back in court working. And then during the week one of the Civil Servants in charge of the Courts Services goes to the Irish Times to say that some lawyers are making a fortune out of Covid (spoiler warning. We aren’t.) and the whole subject just becomes touchy. I guess I’d just like to be getting paid to give out career stuff.

The Question IRL posted:So the whole point of the case was to attract attention to their cause, or grift money from people who believe that people’s rights are being suppressed? Never said it was a good plan, or that it would work, it just struck me at the time that multiple people in the US (https://www.dailydot.com/debug/shelley-luther-gofundme https://ie.gofundme.com/f/mk6ez-atilis-bellmawr-court-relief) in the US had said up fundraising drives on the back of breaching lockdown rules by opening businesses that were supposed to be closed, and done very well out of it. O'Doherty and Waters move in the same online circles as the US anti lockdown freaks, so I think it's entirely possible they saw people making bank out of getting dragged in to court and thought they'd try the same. I suppose it comes down to how much you believe they're motivated by malice and how much is down to stupidity, but personally I lean more towards malice, particularly where O'Doherty is concerned. Waters I'm less sure about, his court case over parking tickets a few years ago suggests he's a loving moron who doesn't know when he's beaten.

I can't believe that 5G gave me Co.V.I.D!!! Cool Video and Internet Downloading Seriously, having 5G in a rural area is nuts and feels like a step up. Constisant 1080p streaming or even just streaming games using GeForce Now is crazy compared to the download hiccups we kept having with 2.4G. Even just downloading a podcast in 18 seconds compared to 5-8 minutes is a big jump.

There's some evidence that the bandwidth used by 5G will interfere with weather satellites used by the relevant American body, so the worldwide model of prediction will suffer from it, but the way things are going these days we should just be assuming hurricanes and taking cover when we can see the monster storms coming.

The way the virus spreads leads to exponential growth in the numbers. "Opening back up" is fantasy. If you think this is bad wait till you see what happens when the pubs reopen.

Christ, the pubs alone are giving me anxiety. I tried going to the pool and gym this week, they seem to be running a tight ship of booking sessions in advance and having like 6-8 people max per area. Still terrified of how things will go in a weeks time, but I'll live in hope.

A few weeks back I saw the head of the WHO hoping that this would be under control within two years and it'll actually turn into a seasonal flu type thing going forward, with yearly vaccine updates to try fend off the new strains. He was all "the 1918 flu lasted until 1920 so if we can do better that would be great". That's what we are looking at here, assuming the US election doesn't gently caress things. Forget opening the pubs.

Just saw Gemtrails' crew have arrived in the carpark at the north end of Bray seafront, presumably to prep for her mass protest of at least 6 people at the garda station today. No sign of the woman herself, and John Waters appears to be attending in poster form only. edit: oh my god, their posters are hilariously inept This protest has been advertised for the last week and they are handwriting slogans on the back of JW old election posters in sharpie, in the car-park. Made the classic mistake of not sizing your lettering to the space so it's all END POLICE OPPRession Aha, they tried to make the slogan more visible by going over it a few times in pen and now the ink's all run and 'police' is unreadable. These people are such chumps. Pookah fucked around with this message at 13:57 on Sep 5, 2020 |

Any chance we can call for another election, because this government are on their third Ag minister, the Health one may have gotten everyone sick and colleges look to be having a slight meltdown from the recent CAO results. Also, who let Simon Harris near schools... he barely managed Health when he was there!

Remind me to stop checking r/ireland for discourse on current events. Place is over-run by YFG these days. Everyone calling for her to be imprisoned or shot for throwing a boiling hot, covid infected cup of coffee at him. Journalists aren't much better, equating this and the assault on izzy kamikaze as equivalent.
