he is going mask off Adolf Hitler mode recently (since a few years) and apparently it’s causing a split in the party with most preferring to remain cryptofascist lol. they don’t have any real mass support yet thankfully but still, sucks that nobody has killed this guy yet and the state just lets him do this shit.
Felt a bit masochistic and listened to this speech and holy moly was this awkward.
Just zero charisma, nothing. He tries to make a bombastic speech (like his idol I suppose) but it completely falls apart because he constantly needs to make pauses to look down and read his script again, sometimes after just one sentence. And don’t even get me started with his weird voice and delivery. Just urgh.
lol yeah that doesn’t surprise me, they’re really not sending their best here. he is very much still a fringe figure who doesn’t command much respect aside from a small dedicated band of other pathetic fascists. and hopefully the pivot to mask off will shake out to be a politically bad decision, not that we’re immune or anything but the Irish masses aren’t exactly chomping at the bit for national socialism.
