SF and left councillors in Cork, who?

[Revolution Cork]

Not nonsensical at all. But it is bizarre.

The point is that despite all of their socialist pretensions, they cannot escape the fact that by definition they are right wing if they subscribe to nineteenth century nationalist principles. Jingoism, cultural nationalism, introverted self-determination, identity politics, preoccupation with language/religion/borders all signify old-fashioned and traditional right wing political views. Sinn Fein means 'we ourselves' afaik. Sounds pretty right wing to me.

That sounds like the Sinn Fein the Workers Party argument from the 70's and look where they ended up.Stalinists tend to have one demensional thinking and find flexability of thought an abomination.
