I was reading the posts on a new Bundoran facebook group about concern over the number of asylum seekers dumped in the area with the McEniff dynasty being a prime beneficiary (imagine my shock).

First thing that stands out is how scared a lot of the members are about discussing the problems.

The admin is at pains to point out that 'biased comments', 'yellow-vesting' (😂) and 'hatred/racism' will not be tolerated. Comments from members often get prefaced like this:

🔹 "Im not one bit against people coming in to town, but this is a joke bundoran is killed."

🔹"Refugees welcome in Bundoran but we are FULL FULL FULL"

🔹"I welcome all cultures but..."

🔹"Bundoran has always welcomed people of all nationalities but..."

I could hear Anton Chigurh in my head — "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"

This desire to be seen as kind-hearted is something the regime takes full advantage of, but it's increasingly clear that it's a tactic stretched to its limit.
