Keyboard warriors. Faggots.

Better not miss the first shot, faggot, 'cause you ain't gonna' get a second...

Masks make a good target. The bullet will exit through all of the bits that manage your brain and hormones. Instant ragdoll.

Are people wearing masks again?

Dehumanization.

The "hands in pockets" gesture is widely cited in popular culture as a silent protest by Irish men, particularly from Cork, against the British monarchy, rooted in events from the Irish War of Independence in 1920.

Historical Origin During the War of Independence, British authorities imposed martial law in Cork. On December 1, 1920, the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) auxiliary division in Macroom, Co. Cork, issued an order that no male inhabitant could appear in public with their hands in their pockets, stating that any man infringing this order was liable to be shot on sight. This decree was allegedly designed to prevent men from concealing pistols, leading to the cultural assertion that keeping hands in pockets in the presence of British authority figures was an act of defiance and survival.

Modern Context and Controversy The gesture gained recent attention when Irish celebrities like actor Cillian Murphy and rugby star Ronan O’Gara were photographed with their hands in their pockets while meeting members of the Royal Family.

Cillian Murphy: Often interpreted by social media as a symbolic protest against the monarchy, though Murphy has not explicitly confirmed this intent. Ronan O’Gara: In 2009, O’Gara faced backlash for a photo showing him with hands in pockets while meeting Queen Elizabeth II. He later explained that he simply wiped his sweaty hands on his trousers before shaking her hand, denying any intent to insult the Royal Family. While the historical order is documented in local Cork history, many historians and commentators note that the gesture is often exaggerated online as a unified national protest, whereas in reality, it may simply be a cultural habit or a practical action for many Irish individuals.
