This very much seems to be an international push these days. It looks like there’s coordination going on between countries out of the public eye.

Fascists rising everywhere and knowing that what they’re doing is wrong, they become paranoid and demand total control. Ireland’s as susceptible as anyone.
The sad thing is that less-rightwing voices can be convinced that more power is needed, that police can only enforce when they can break into anything.
