Anyone remember when the Fowlers from Eastenders "visited Ireland" back in the 80s? There were literally chickens in the kitchen. This is right up there with that. Absolutely shocking.

I’m from rural Scotland and I quite like Irish family A, who seem like decent patriots to me and I particularly love their Aran jumpers. Family B seem like stuck-up, effete, city types, who think they’re so much more fun and interesting than everybody else, but are actually a bunch of prats.
I was born in Portugal, live in Canadian ,I am a Canadian Citizen, but I LOVE, LOVE Irish Music , as such I find this very Offensive, I guess I am Very Racist .
I am not Irish but Scottish. I do feel for Ireland and I do think you're absolutely right. The only thing is that similar things are happening everywhere else as well. What I can not understand is who or where it all originates from. Some dark group somewhere or what. Why are all our cultural and Educational systems under attack & why do those within follow this absolute garbage without questioning where or who is driving it, IE the real source. The rot seems to be coming from some mysterious source and everyone just accepts it. It is time for us all to start looking deeper. I am heartened that you at least have started to take notice of it all. I wish the rest of us would do likewise.
It's a ridiculous Subject. Waste of time. I did Teacher Training for 6 months. Quit in unhappy circumstances. (I wasn't informed about a suicidal Pupil with mental health issues). I taught English and SPHE. One class was on personal hygiene, another on road safety. These are common sense issues that can be addressed in Assemblies, or better still at home. Another SPHE Class at Christmas time was devoted to making Christmas Decorations. It is a nonsensical 'Subject' that should be scrapped. Schools are very woke now. One English lesson I sat in, (13 yr olds) to observe, the Teacher showed a McDonald's logo, and slogan. The Kids had to write about how the advertising worked to reach people. This is not an English lesson.
As an American who loves Ireland and the Irish people, I’m so disappointed that your education system has adopted the global disease of “blame yourself first.” Loving one’s own culture (as obscenely stereotyped as it was depicted) does not equate to hating others. That was shameful - and no, that is not being hypersensitive.
I did an honours degree in “social,science and social policy” 30 years ago and part of the study included how the British government introduced new reading books into the schools which blamed the “work shy, lazy, backward Irish farmers for the potato famine”. I’m sorry I can’t remember what unit it was in my studies so I can’t prove this but there were examples of the children’s reading books. History repeating itself for a similar narrative! We’ve got to get to the bottom of who is behind trying to destroy us all.
We agree to all of this and then we're shocked when it actually gets shoved in our face. That what doormats are for. Then we'll all apologise for being doormats. Stop apologising for being Irish and grow a spine.
When a book like that is released into Irish schools with the backing of everyone in a position to stop it, it’s too late. These two presenters are part of the problem.
It could be stopped if the department of education was given a clear out, go back to teaching proper education and scrapping the ideologies to children that don't need to be indoctrinated into hating their own country and culture
Reading, writing, arithmetic. Give them an old-fashioned classical education. Teach them classical liberal values, not the Marxism they are indoctrinated with now.
that texter with the 'counter view' would not tell a Muslim they were "missing the point" if they found a Muslim version of Family A in a school textbook offensive. But no other family's culture bar an Irish traditional one would be depicted like this
And that's the problem. Anyone who's lived in English inner cities will tell you that's exactly how people have been living. The difference is that Irish family A has a traditional, sustainable and productive way of life to pass on to their children. A first, second or third generation migrant family A, living in Birmingham that refused to mix, learn English, kept their kids out of school setting up generations to fail and contribute nothing actually are genuinely bigoted.
This is beyond insulting and degrading to normal Irish families, and instilling this nonsense into children's minds at a young age. Heads need to roll for this! Sickening.
Watch Gript news, they have been reporting this crazy for the last year - the NCCA National Council for Curriculum - The NGO that guides teachers, they have a section asking white students to recognise their white privilege
This is the secular Ireland that Varadkar was trying to beckon, one where we're anti-Irish history, culture, identity, nativism, past-times etc. The schools and academia are riddled with this stuff, like a disease, and it continues forth into an 8bn NGO industry.
Then people must stand up against it. The apathy has to stop. Call out the media, the politicians, the institutions who have been captured by this ideology. Call out those who try to silence us with slurs. Call them out and stand up!
This is only the beginning. This kind of thing is why more and more better off people are choosing homeschooling their kids over sending them to the so called “national” school.
Just wait for the newspaper articles. " Is homeschooling far right? We ask the experts " or "teaching children to hate. Calls for regulation of homeschooling"
@@joereynolds475 They're already trying to ban homeschooling in many EU countries- they want the state to OWN your children and destroy the family- classic commie tactics!
It would be bad enough if someone just said these bigoted sorts of things about a people and their culture, but the fact that it's in a textbook for teaching that people's children with a view to corrode their culture's future is just plain criminal.
All deliberate to erode the unique culture of the Irish people. Their excuses are lies, and their defence of this drivel is pure projection and gaslighting. Keep your eyes about you, dear Irish people, and be proud of your wonderful culture ❤

She has no future in her own country.
Maybe they should have put a muslim family with the mother in a Burqua who dont mix with other people and dont even learn the language ... Just to balance things out?
What a daft book! As an Irishman married to a non Irish person living abroad I'm proud of our culture. We can be progressive, appreciative of other cultures without denigrating our own, in fact I would say appreciating our own is almost a prerequisite to appreciating others.

"Even children know this is not meant to be reflective of actual Irish families." I don't know how they can say that when according to the description of the book you gave, it basically says this is what Irish families are like. Of course they have to say that to avoid getting more egg, or perhaps mashed potatoes (to go along with their stereotype), on their face.

Anyone remember when the Fowlers from Eastenders "visited Ireland" back in the 80s? There were literally chickens in the kitchen. This is right up there with that. Absolutely shocking.
The Garda should investigate the authors, publishers, and those in the Department of Education who approved this book. This is racist hate speech.

Who is responsible for this anti Irish anti national and grooming of young Irish people to feel less than everybody else while in their own country.??If they are Irish people who are responsible for this rubbish they should be sacked and completely ashamed of themselves, and if they are not Irish then I sense a very disturbing agenda,,it's so shocking and offensive it's almost unbelievable.🇮🇪🇮🇪.

I’m from rural Scotland and I quite like Irish family A, who seem like decent patriots to me and I particularly love their Aran jumpers. Family B seem like stuck-up, effete, city types, who think they’re so much more fun and interesting than everybody else, but are actually a bunch of prats.
It’s worth highlighting that this only reached the MSM late from small independent news and journos. Also, Paul Connolly.
Thanks to Gript media the real journalist in this country everyone needs to start looking at them for News
As a proud white Englishman. I support the indigenous people of Ireland. From the mountains to the sea, Ireland will be free.
Child abuse
Exactly 💯. They are forcing Irish children to hate themselves and their families.
Mental health abuse,making children argumentative in the homes that have family values.

I am not Irish but Scottish. I do feel for Ireland and I do think you're absolutely right. The only thing is that similar things are happening everywhere else as well. What I can not understand is who or where it all originates from. Some dark group somewhere or what. Why are all our cultural and Educational systems under attack & why do those within follow this absolute garbage without questioning where or who is driving it, IE the real source. The rot seems to be coming from some mysterious source and everyone just accepts it. It is time for us all to start looking deeper. I am heartened that you at least have started to take notice of it all. I wish the rest of us would do likewise.
Same in England and probably most of Western Europe, we're all being taught to hate ourselves. People are starting to realise at last.
We're at the point where White people need to start becoming hostile.
Maybe people need to take a look at everything they are teaching in SPHE and CSPE classes.
Exactly. I believe Irish privilege is another thing they're pushing in cspe
Definitely parents need to start asking children Questions about what they are talking about in school and that book in only fit for the bin
Am I right to think that text books are free now and not allowed home?
@@Molly-mg2bk wow if that's true it adds a whole other sinister element to this
It's a ridiculous Subject. Waste of time. I did Teacher Training for 6 months. Quit in unhappy circumstances. (I wasn't informed about a suicidal Pupil with mental health issues). I taught English and SPHE. One class was on personal hygiene, another on road safety. These are common sense issues that can be addressed in Assemblies, or better still at home. Another SPHE Class at Christmas time was devoted to making Christmas Decorations. It is a nonsensical 'Subject' that should be scrapped. Schools are very woke now. One English lesson I sat in, (13 yr olds) to observe, the Teacher showed a McDonald's logo, and slogan. The Kids had to write about how the advertising worked to reach people. This is not an English lesson.
The only surprise is that Newstalk mentioned the truth.
Maybe the follow up will include the downsides of the newcomers, with their grooming habits and love of knives.
As an American who loves Ireland and the Irish people, I’m so disappointed that your education system has adopted the global disease of “blame yourself first.” Loving one’s own culture (as obscenely stereotyped as it was depicted) does not equate to hating others. That was shameful - and no, that is not being hypersensitive.
I did an honours degree in “social,science and social policy” 30 years ago and part of the study included how the British government introduced new reading books into the schools which blamed the “work shy, lazy, backward Irish farmers for the potato famine”. I’m sorry I can’t remember what unit it was in my studies so I can’t prove this but there were examples of the children’s reading books. History repeating itself for a similar narrative! We’ve got to get to the bottom of who is behind trying to destroy us all.
I'll give you a hint. They were small hats, have big noses and eat baby foreskins.
The far left, Marxists are behind it. They are trying to year zero our society. They want power and are willing to destroy everything to get it.

Amen!!!! Too many submissive sheep in this country! Not surprised we've always been somebody's colony.
When a book like that is released into Irish schools with the backing of everyone in a position to stop it, it’s too late.
These two presenters are part of the problem.

It could be stopped if the department of education was given a clear out, go back to teaching proper education and scrapping the ideologies to children that don't need to be indoctrinated into hating their own country and culture
They won't stop it it's part of the agenda
Reading, writing, arithmetic. Give them an old-fashioned classical education. Teach them classical liberal values, not the Marxism they are indoctrinated with now.
@@audience2 absolutely 💯
that texter with the 'counter view' would not tell a Muslim they were "missing the point" if they found a Muslim version of Family A in a school textbook offensive. But no other family's culture bar an Irish traditional one would be depicted like this
Muslim is not a nationality. Obssessed with muslims?
@@sb8163 you took the words out of my mouth. Absolutely spot on.
And that's the problem. Anyone who's lived in English inner cities will tell you that's exactly how people have been living. The difference is that Irish family A has a traditional, sustainable and productive way of life to pass on to their children. A first, second or third generation migrant family A, living in Birmingham that refused to mix, learn English, kept their kids out of school setting up generations to fail and contribute nothing actually are genuinely bigoted.

Its like the old anti Irish racism from England. Nobody has thought like this ever......mind you its the Irish Times, RTE view of Irish society.
This is the secular Ireland that Varadkar was trying to beckon, one where we're anti-Irish history, culture, identity, nativism, past-times etc.
The schools and academia are riddled with this stuff, like a disease, and it continues forth into an 8bn NGO industry.
Then people must stand up against it. The apathy has to stop. Call out the media, the politicians, the institutions who have been captured by this ideology. Call out those who try to silence us with slurs. Call them out and stand up!

With a letter telling them you'll sue for defamation.

All deliberate to erode the unique culture of the Irish people. Their excuses are lies, and their defence of this drivel is pure projection and gaslighting. Keep your eyes about you, dear Irish people, and be proud of your wonderful culture ❤

This is Racist against the Irish. If someone living in Ireland doesn’t like Irish culture they have a choice GET OUT.
While in reality, it is the other way around. Muslim families don't want the mixing with non Muslim men. And it is considered traditional, culture and beautiful (by the left wing).
