READ: Police are monitoring this website: Guideline Reminder
A member of this forum in the UK was contacted by the police and asked to attend an interview regarding comments he made on the board.

Please can I remind people about some of the boards guidelines:

Always understand that the state is monitoring this website. It is a fact.

No explosives, no weapons, no drugs

It is against the guidelines to discuss, promote, glorify, instruct, agitate or incite the practice of terrorism, the art of weapons manufacturing, the making, distribution or selling of explosives or weapons and the illegal taking, manufacturing and supply of narcotics: Anyone posting such information will have it removed and could potentially be banned. It not only puts you at risk, it puts other users and this board at risk.

The state has already shut down and imprisoned website administrators for allowing the posting of bomb making materials (see the case of Sherman Austin (http://www.anonym.to/?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherman_Austin)).

No personal photos

It is against the boards guidelines to post personal pictures of yourself or of your comrades. If you do so you will have them automatically removed and could be banned from the board.

As we know for a fact that the state monitors this website, along with fascist organisations like Redwatch, we cannot tolerate people posting personal pictures of themselves. It jeopardises your safety and the safety of others.

No talk of or planning political direct actions or illegal activity

It is a stupid, stupid thing to talk openly on a forum like this about any potential or alleged direct action of any kind, especially if it is illegal, which could implicate activists to the police and security services.

Do not, under any circumstances, discuss or attempt to organise any illegal activities or direct action of any kind on the board, including with your Private Messaging systems (they are not secure).

Anyone openly calling for illegal/terrorist activities will be regarded as suspicious and will be banned immediately.

Further to all this: Do not ask for or give out personal information to people you don't know. If someone contacts you asking to arrange a meeting, asking for your name or your personal contact details report them to an administrator immediately.

Remember: The revolutionary left is an active movement of people who advocate the overthrow of the present economic and political systems. It is not a game and we will take very seriously people who violate these established guidelines.

This post is being discussed on a Republican Forum.

I can't see the thread as I don't have an Irish Republican account.

You might have to do the unthinkable and register .:laugh:

[Comrade B]

Think you could copy the discussion and repost in the thread?

[Eat the Rich]

copypaste please I can't see shit.

[ls]

Is this a ploy to get people to register on that forum? :confused:

Copypaste please.

[Rusty Shackleford]

copy and paste please. or at least give us some information on what the discussion is about?

[☭World Views]

I registered.

Hopefully they will approve my account soon so I can shed light on what this is about.

[KarlMarx1989]

You have to get an account approved? That's ghey...

I, for one, am not getting an account and do not really care what they have to say.

They are probably just talking smack about how we're "radicals" "aiding the terrorists" and that necessary action must be taken, blah blah blah...It's the same Glenn Beck bullshit that is pedaled around everyday.

They're the terrorists if you ask me. They're more like mental terrorists rather than the conventional view of terrorists in the media. In fact, it is the media that makes them terrorists. They use it to pump fear into people, in the news and in commercials, to get them to believe what they say. Sa'ul used tactics similar to this to get christianity going. They have no idea what they're talking about because they fabricate situations to make us all look bad or they exaggerate about something that is said or that is done to make us look bad.

I do not fear them, or their terrorism; their KKK or their NRA. Obviously their other Ku Klux Kocksuckers have not done anything. They're all bark and no bite. They are afraid themselves, that is why they have to pump fear into the masses; to bring them down to thier level. :hammersickle: :cubaflag: :marx: Hey fascists, :tt2:!

[Kwisatz Haderach]

Wait, we're talking about Irish Republicans here. As far as I'm aware, they are not hostile to the left; in fact many of them consider themselves left-wing in a reformist sense.

I copied and pasted this sticky of the popular Left Wing Forum RevLeft.
If the Brits are monitoring left wing forums like this then you can only imagine the wealth of knowledge and info they gather off here.
Always good to keep this in mind.
I will post a link if Im allowed?

Think it would be a good idea for every member particularly new ones to read this WARNING on becoming accepted on to the forum, some tend to do a bit of sabre rattling and get carried away, especially younger posters.
Good post mate

The most recent edition of the Shankill Mirror (not online yet) also mentions 'Republican Terrorist' discussion sites chara.......

Therefore, we're getting plently of attention and agree we all should be more aware of security!

He has no point cara just ignore him.


We have been banging away on this site about loose talk but NO ONE listens. There are several people in this very thread that continue to make loose posts. When lifted I'll be the one they want to blame. It is very dangerous at this time, if your post is delete don't scream censorship, the moderation team will be protecting some of you from yourselves and also the site.
.................................................. .................................................. ..

That last post is from the main admin on that site.

[Dimentio]

Brilliant to post this on Learning, where everyone could read. Absolutely brilliant.

[PRC-UTE]

Several people I know of, one I knew personally were recently arrested and while in custody were asked about the content of their posts on internet forums. They probably know who many of us are, so it's indeed a good idea not to say anything remotely close to threats of violence or "terrorism".

[IrishWorker]

Theres some threads made up on this which obvious require you to loose talk or mention things without knowing it too. Like the ones which appear to be silly harmless threads.

Then theres been the more obvious ones like ''who do you support'' ''what age are you'' ''did anyone in sucha place see this (and people are like ''yes its right above my house now'' LOL HAHA).

The'll be categorising each poster, something like-
Sinn Fein; Of no interest
32CSM ; Of great interest
RSF ; Of great interest
IRSP ; Of great interest
Independents; Of great Interest
Then a profile of who you are in contact with etc, the picture just keeps getting bigger, friends of friends, workmates- all there details, who you speak to at the football, it would surprise people the amount of info the Brits would have on you.
Should you ever be stopped or arrested, whatever you say-say nothing.

I would say they would have somthing like:

Mentioning social networking websites, if you use sites like bebo, facebook, twitter etc. and have personal info on it, don't use the same username that you use here.
A simple search for your username on google or on the social networking sites and it will throw up anything you've put down.

However, I know that a republican does what all republicans do. I know that there is a difference because they were all started in different countries, but if you think about it; they have probably been around longer--for Ireland has been far longer than the US--so they are probably even more arrogant and think that the world owes them more. If not, then good for them. All I am saying is I do not fear them--despite the picture--especially the distance they are from me, (US to Ireland) unless there are some Irish republicans in the US, then it would be the same amount of not-fear.

1) I spelled it G-H-E-Y for a reason...

The American Republicans doesnt have anything in common with the Irish Republicans, theyre on complete opposites of the political spectrum. The American ones are, as Im sure you know, on the right, whereas the Irish ones are on the left, if not the far left.

Provisional Irish Republican Army (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Provisional_Irish_Republican_Army)
Irish Republican Army (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Republican_Army)
Irish National Liberation Army (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_National_Liberation_Army)

Thats a start, if youre interested in knowing more about the Irish Republicans.

[chegitz guevara]

I know that a republican does what all republicans do.

They stand for a republic. Guess what, so do socialists and communists. We are republicans as well, workers republicans.


1) I spelled it G-H-E-Y for a reason...

Which doesn't in anyway diminish it as a heterosexist insult.

[KarlMarx1989]

They stand for a republic. Guess what, so do socialists and communists. We are republicans as well, workers republicans.I am well aware of all of this. I just wanted to express that I don't like the idea of a republic, in any sense. I do, however, support the idea of a full-force, pure democracy. A socialist democracy, maybe even a communist democracy. I am looking at the definition of both a democracy and a republic as we speak (As I type). I am also aware of the existence of democratic republics. That being said, I like to take the 'republic' out of democratic republic and call it a good idea.

Which doesn't in anyway diminish it as a heterosexist insult.
To people I know, it does. This would include homosexual friends that I've known for years. So...yeah.

[KarlMarx1989]

I admit that the two definitions are similar, but I see the differences in them:

re⋅pub⋅lic /rɪˈpʌbhttp://cache.lexico.com/dictionary/graphics/luna/thinsp.pnglɪk/ [ri-puhb-lik]–noun

1. a state in which the supreme power rests in the body of citizens entitled to vote and is exercised by representatives chosen directly or indirectly by them.
2. any body of persons viewed as a commonwealth.
3. a state in which the head of government is not a monarch or other hereditary head of state.
4. any of the five periods of republican government in France.
5. philosophical dialogue (4th century b.c.) by Plato dealing with the composition and structure of the ideal state.

de⋅moc⋅ra⋅cy /dɪˈmɒkhttp://cache.lexico.com/dictionary/graphics/luna/thinsp.pngrəhttp://cache.lexico.com/dictionary/graphics/luna/thinsp.pngsi/ [di-mok-ruh-see] –noun

1. government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system.
2. a state having such a form of government: The United States and Canada are democracies.
3. a state of society characterized by formal equality of rights and privileges.
4. political or social equality; democratic spirit.
5. the common people of a community as distinguished from any privileged class; the common people with respect to their political power.

[KarlMarx1989]

Also, I believe--by definition--that christian-America is an imperial republic.

Imperial Republic: a state in which the supreme power rests in the body of citizens that characterizes the rule or authority of a sovereign state over its dependencies

[Spawn of Stalin]

The Irish republicans are fighting for democracy, something that, at the moment, they have very little of. I'd suggest reading up on the current situation in Ireland and Britain, these people are not meant to scare you, they are fighting for the same things as you, sovereignty, democracy, peace, socialism, yes, many of them, including those pictured above, are Marxists, just like you.

[Comrade B]

glad to know our forum is helping Irish Republicans protect themselves from imperialists. Solidarity.

I'd suggest reading up on the current situation in Ireland and Britain, these people are not meant to scare you, they are fighting for the same things as you, sovereignty, democracy, peace, socialism, yes, many of them, including those pictured above, are Marxists, just like you.
Excellent Post Comrade.

Question: How does this affect US and Canadian citizens?

Right out from the start i was wary of joining this site because of the politics it promotes even though i, myself, am here to learn, join a party, and possibly do or learn about activism.

I do not use a proxy for my IP and if they really wanted to they (ill just call em BB :lol:) could find me with relative ease due to IP and email.

Does anyone know how the association with this forum could affect peoples lives? (besides of course advocating illegal things):confused:

don't share personal details or contact information on those sites and remember that the FBI is all over that. Don't express support for the RIRA or CIRA if you're American. Otherwise you're fine, Obama has even posed for pics with former IRA members still wanted by Britain :D

I know that they don't have a KKK. I was wrong to make that comment (got a little carried away:D:blushing:). However, I know that a republican does what all republicans do. I know that there is a difference because they were all started in different countries, but if you think about it; they have probably been around longer--for Ireland has been far longer than the US--so they are probably even more arrogant and think that the world owes them more. If not, then good for them. All I am saying is I do not fear them--despite the picture--especially the distance they are from me, (US to Ireland) unless there are some Irish republicans in the US, then it would be the same amount of not-fear.
An Irish Republican isn't an Irish Neo-Con.

Does anyone else find it ironic that this user KarlMarx1989 is going on about his ignorant garbage when the real Karl Marx fully supported Irish independence?

Upon some studying over the weekend; I learned about the Irish republicans and what they stand for. I was actually surprised at some of the material I had learned and I realize that I was wrong on some of what I said. However, their title as republicans now confounds me because they aren't really fighting to have a republic set in, they are more fighting for a democracy. Unless it is a democratic republic, then I can understand but that doesn't sound like what they are aiming for..

well, you seem sort of hung up on the word republic. what we should examine is which class dominates the state. republican socialists want the working class to rule. the other republican movements are more petit bourgeois/middle class.

Ah. I think I understand more now. I have always been a strong supporter of equality. I believe that nothing will be resolved as long as someone is dominant over another.
