The Conservative Political Thinker Shunned for Being Right Thu Jun 05, 2025 19:00 | Michael Rainsborough
Academics can be cruel to dissenters from 'progressive' dogma, even more so when they're right. Dr Michael Rainsborough pays tribute to his late friend Dr David Martin Jones, who deserves to be much more widely read.

When June Became the Cruellest Month Thu Jun 05, 2025 13:19 | Paul Stevens
Five years ago this month, the world changed. Manipulated by the media and deranged by politicians' daily podium pronouncements, the population lost its grip on reality and succumbed to mask mania, writes Paul Stevens.

A site that offers freedom of speech and ideas that fight for truth and honesty does not fit in with their dictatorship schemes, so dont be surprised, they are well used to using dirty tricks they have been doing it for decades.
Keep up the good work folks and thank you for your labours.
Wouldn't be the first time some pup reported 'invented' a story so they could cover it. Then again there are more than enough mindless idiots to go around.
Indymedia's very existence must by very annoying to the likes of the Irish Dependent Newspaper group
it's pathetic the lengths some people will go to in order to discredit Indymedia
during the events of the flotilla massacre and it's aftermath, Indymedia.ie was probably the most vital Non-Zionist-influenced information outlet available to Irish people. In this regard it surely must have been a thorn in the side of the Zionist-hasbara-machine's attempts to lie it's way through the outrage it so richly deserved.
An attack on Indymedia's credibility as a news source would certainly benefit such people, and would likely be seen as a form of 'pay-back' for having the temerity to highlight alternative narratives regarding events aboard the flotilla.
The fact that the Indo immediately jumped on the chance to attempt to discredit Indymedia is only to be expected from such a cheap & discredited peddler of establishment propaganda - and in some ways is actually a backhanded compliment to the Indymedia enterprise -
That they gave the non-story an article of it's own, complete with the nonsense phrase "Gardai may investigate" (or indeed MAY NOT 'investigate"), is testimony to their desperation.
I'd say this was definitely an attempt to discredit Indymedia.
Have you met anti-semanticist and his personalised ploys?Then there is another one currently posting as emphatically NOT opus d. I suppose I should be flattered.Check it yourselves, seeing as that is the topic in question.The Lenihan trick? Any noise is good news to the troll. I can certainly understand how Indymedia would annoy the lobby lobby.
This hoax against Lenihan should also be viewed as an attack on indymedia's credibilty as a news source, regardless of whether that was the intention of the person who posted it or not .
This rags statesthat the Gardai may now investigate. Loving their semantics.

I believe he is alive and responding to treatment. I wish him a full a recovery. But I wouldn't go so far as to ever say he is OK.In fact his media-friendly manner and the sympathy vote probably mean he could deliver the hatchet to the weakest and sickest in our health service, while he,like his compadres, avails of the best private facilities his public-purse wages supply.They dont call us the sentimental Irish for nothing.
People who post on indymedia threads, myself included, are sometimes disappointed to have items hidden. At least the Hidden Articles List records such incidents and reasons are given by the monitors. Good work that they detected and quickly hid that recent poisonous 'news' item.
Self control and apt judgment by posters and continuing on-the-ball monitoring will ensure that indymedia can continue to serve many useful causes with credibility.
Scandelous behaviour , obviously the product of a sick mind
p.ie have used it to have a go at indymedia and open publishing.
http://www.politics.ie/media/131283-indymedia.html
Pot calling the kettle black? Surely p.ie of all sites are not in a position to be tut-tutting about the posting of false information.
There was a separate report of someone's death a few weeks ago on both British and Irish Indymedia sites, as well a wikipedia.org- a prominent activist was supposed to have died that time.
Obviously some people have a lot of time on their hands.
