   A series of nationalist election posters spotted around Ireland have gone   
   viral amid growing local opposition to the country’s mass immigration   
   policy.   
      
   The posters, some seen near the Assembly of Ireland in Dublin, are produced   
   by The Irish People, a political party that brings together independent   
   candidates which share core principles including family values, opposition   
   to wokeness and open borders, and housing for native Irish citizens.   
      
   One poster which has drawn attention worldwide features the definition of   
   the word ethnocide: “the deliberate and systematic destruction of the   
   culture of an ethnic group”.   
      
   Others say “Something has seriously gone wrong with Ireland. It’s up to the   
   Irish people to fix it”, “NGOs – how did NGOs capture government policy   
   and   
   the media narrative?”, “Housing – no housing, no families, no future”,   
   and   
   “Education – no woke indoctrination, leave the kids alone”.   
      
   “Something beautiful is happening,” wrote independent reporter Klaus   
   Arminius, who shared some of the posters on X.   
      
   “The Irish people are trying to take back their country from the traitors   
   that sold them out.”   
      
   Another X user shared similar photos, including one of a poster saying   
   “Hello world – goodbye Ireland” with a graphic of Ireland showing   
   immigrants entering and Irish leaving.   
      
   “I don’t know much about ‘The Irish People’ party, but it’s great to   
   see   
   these up around Dublin, especially outside the Dáil,” he wrote.   
      
   “I’m just happy they’re up with a message of the reality Ireland is   
   facing,   
   above and below posters of the politicians that inflicted/promoted the   
   decimation of our country.”   
      
   Social media users applauded the poster campaign, with one saying: “This   
   poster wouldn’t look out of place in Germany either. Accurately describes   
   the current state of affairs in Europe!”   
      
   “They are pushing Irish people to the edge. They aren’t going to like what   
   happens if this continues. Ireland belongs to the Irish,” another said.   
      
   But some users thought the ethnocide poster did not go far enough.   
      
   “They should’ve left it at ‘ethnicity’ instead of ‘culture’   
   because the   
   mass migration promoters will always make the argument that everybody will   
   be ‘assimilated’. If you instead make the argument about ethnicity/genes,   
   they can’t claim that anymore,” one wrote.   
      
   “Remove the words ‘of the culture’ and it’s perfect,” said another   
   critic.   
      
   Others pointed out that “Ireland is not a country likely to take its   
   destruction lying down”, and a Polish user warned: “Cultural security and   
   societal security are not merely academic theories. They are real. And when   
   they bite back, things get ugly.”   
      
   Anti-immigration sentiment is running high in Ireland, where a recent   
   Amárach Research poll for the Daily Mail showed that 79% of Irish citizens   
   believe the number of immigrants arriving in the country is too high.   
      
   Only 2% believe immigration is “too low”, and 64% say the current   
   government “isn’t in control of immigration to Ireland”.   
      
   Growing anger over high immigration and the resettlement of refugees and   
   asylum seekers across the country has led to protests in town such as   
   Newtownmountkennedy, where thousands gathered with banners reading “Ireland   
   is out homeland – we will not be replaced”.   
      
   Initial rallies in late April were met with a brutal police crackdown where   
   women and young people where left bloodied by baton charges, sparking   
   further demonstrations in the following days.   
      
   In the year to April 2023 more than 141,000 immigrants arrived in Ireland,   
   which has a population of 5.2 million and is now less than 76.5% White   
   Irish.
