150 years of the irish times

(Episode One: A New Dope.)
All this week at The Heelers Diaries we're celebrating 150 years of The Irish Times.
Yes, barely a century and a half ago the old lady of D'Olier Street, as her promoters and apologists call her, was established by a group of syphilitic faux British pseudo upper class landlords keen to promote a healthy self image for landlordism, syphilis and themselves.
(Sybaritic faux British pseudopods surely? - Ed note.)
The paper's early readership consisted of 200 people who were more or less the ruling class in Ireland.
So no change there.
They've still got about 200 readers.
And it's still the same 200 half wits who think they're in charge of the country.
For The Irish Times does not survive on revenues from papers it sells.
The Irish Times survives only because our corrupt kleptocratic government (now based in Dublin but no less corrupt for all that) finances them with State money even though many of us who are citizens of this State find The Irish Times a deeply opprobrious, nay abhorrent, entity and have no wish to finance it.
Let me speak for myself.
I have no wish to buy The Irish Times. And so I don't buy it. I have no wish to finance it either. But our kleptocratic Fianna Fail government doesn't allow me the luxury of that choice. I finance The Irish Times whether I like it or not.
The Irish Times floats on Health Board advertising.
This is public money.
My money.
My money is forwarded to The Irish Times in millions every year.
Outrageous, no?
There's more.
Just last week The Irish Times began to publicise a court case being taken to the European Supreme Court by the Irish Family Planning Association.
The case is an attempt to bring about the enforced legalisation and practice of abortion in Ireland.
It is my opinion that The Irish Times and its staff and their allies in the legal profession, have been to the fore in promoting other such pushes towards coercive abortion culture in Ireland.
The present push is being financed in a most interesting fashion.
The Irish Family Planning Association, on the surface of it, is just another vociferous atheistic contraception promoting body.
In fact it is also a militant abortion advocacy group.
And it's financed...
Yes.
By the Irish government.
That is to say, it's financed by me.
Those kleptocratic Fianna Failers really know how to talk Catholic while pouring my cash into the pockets of abortionists.
Someday they will answer to God for it.
So I am financing the Irish Family Planning Association's present attempts to bring abortion culture to Ireland.
And I am financing the Irish Times.
Against my will of course.
But when has that ever mattered to the Forces of Darkness?

My Favourite Memories Of The Irish Times: Back in 1989 the Chinese Communist Party government sent tanks into Heavenly Peace Plaza to crush the country's nascent democracy movement. This was the place soon to become known to the world as Tianamen Square. Unarmed Chinese men and women and children were slaughtered in the streets of Beijing while the world looked on in horror. The massacre was particularly shocking to the sensitive souls at The Irish Times. One Irish Times journalist, a notorious left winger, wrote piously: "The army of the people has fired on the people. This will never be forgotten." I nearly had a cow when I read this. In the previous decades, Chairman Mao and the Communist Party of China had killed at least 70 million Chinese. The Irish Times was arriving very late to this particular party. "The army of the people has fired on the people." Indeed. Where was The Irish Times for the first 70 million murders? The murders hadn't exactly happened in secret. As a teenager I myself had read about Chairman Mao and the Communist Party of China's penchant for mass murder in The Guinness Book Of Records. I kid you not. CIA propaganda maybe, eh Irish Times? Only the wilfully ignorant, only the wilfully blind, only the wilfully cretinous, could have failed to know what Mao and the Communist Party of China were doing to those people. They were doing the exact same as Joe Stalin and sundry Communist leaders did to the Russian people. The exact same as Pol Pot did to Cambodia. The exact same as Jose Maria Dos Santos did in Angola. The exact same as Robert Mugabe is doing this week in Zimbabwe. And so on. There's no mystery about it. There hasn't been a Communist Party ever which took power, and then failed to massacre its own citizens. Yet The Irish Times spent the Cold War rooting for the Russians and by extension for the Chinese Communist Party which was never more than a Russian proxy, and could never have existed without the perpetual support, succour and guidance of the Russian Communist Party . The Irish Times' willingness to ignore the psychopathology of Chinese Communism, in fact of any communism, is almost more grievous than The Irish Times apologias throughout the Cold War for the excesses of the Russian Communist Party as the Soviets shamelessly (and murderously) promoted dictatorships throughout Africa, the Middle East, Asia and even South and Central America. All those murders. All those incalculable barbarities. All caused by atheistic communism. Why it was positively satanic. Yet for twenty years I was reading every week in the Irish Times about the threat to the world from the evils of American imperialism. Abysmal. Abysmal newspaper. Dishonourable. Dishonourable communist propagandists. And now they want us to legalise abortion in Ireland. You know what folks? I really think we should tell them no. Once and for all. And if there's any Fianna Failers reading this, let me tell you. I grow weary of financing the Irish Times agendas. Their judgement has not proved all that sound in the past. Some one among you must have an iota of courage. A smidgen of integrity. Put a stop to this. Do it Ireland.
