Muintir na hÉireann merely means People of Ireland!

"Stop watching the news
Because the news contrives to frighten you
To make you feel small and alone
To make you feel that your mind isn't your own"

While I don't necessarily advise spending the day in bed (certainly not alone anyway), I robustly endorse this part of Morrissey's message.

Mainstream media is not our ally. It is not representative of the general sentiment on the ground with regard to many issues at the present time. Journalism in Ireland is practically moribund. It is gasping for air in an ever decreasing ideological vacuum. If you don't fully subscribe to identity politics, 21st century misandry (oops! Did I say "misandry"? I obviously meant to say "feminism"), gender bending theory for children in primary school, loathing of Christianity, deference to Islam, gender pay gap myths, open borders, worship of the European Union, and last but most certainly not least currently - abortion of healthy babies on demand up to three months gestation for healthy moms.....

Then you are most definitely being made to feel small and alone. Oddly enough, the reverse is the case. You are not small and alone. You are a sizeable chunk of the population. More importantly, you are a powerful portion of Ireland's electorate. Let your voices be heard. Don't succumb to the gaslighting media. Kick back. Come out strong and steady. That's how we win.
