    US evangelicals have been operating both online and in EU soil for a while now. On Twitter a few years back they were not that sophisticated, with accounts pretending to be local citizens, easily unmasked by the handle names, poor understanding of local culture/references, and use of bad translations/US English terms.

    In Ireland in particular they have been quite active since the marriage equality and abortion referendums, and now they seem to have switched gears to instigating anti-immigration sentiments.

      This is one of the reason why I think this sentiment is America-imported. Nationalists will give you plenty of reasons why America imports “woke ideology” (whatever that means today) yet believe in an imported ideology themselves.

    So if anyone clicked the article, did the site give you an advertisement for a White straight Republican Male t-shirt there?
