    Apparently the Socialist Party have been asking Generation Yes for a debate for weeks with no reply whatsoever. They don't seem to have spotted that the photo was faked though.

    Trotsky must be the most photoshopped figure in history. Stalin had him cut out of a load of photos too.
    They should have used Joe Higgins!

    I asked that on another genyes thread. Copyright infringement? I didn't see any attributes on that video or their site.

    I was talking to a prominent young member of the socialist party over the weekend and she says they have been asking generation yes to debate with them in a public forum for the last 2 months. Generation Yes have consistently declined the offer. They refuse to debate with anyone for fear of being exposed for the clueless puppets they are.

    Is this all generation yes can do?
    Vote yes for pretty faces on posters or dirty tricks on youtube. These people have almost as little respect for the Irish electorate as Fianna Fáil does. No substance to them whatsoever.

    That whole GY video is a nazi type propoganda. Words popping up and hitting you. Images used for ridicule purposes. Much in the style of the 1930's cinema ads portaying the jewish community and the "secret agenda's".
    On top of it all would be nice if GY would expose themselves to the same scrutiny. But then again i hear they chicken out of debates.

    Four people on this thread have participated in a frankly sick, bizarre and over-reactionary spectacle about the source of the photos, it can be found in MANY places, yet a lazy search found one website and suddenly Generation Yes are anti-semitic???? Utter rubbish. Those who's comments have been suppressed, I think you're behaving like sick fanatics. Cop on please, because you're lowering the tone of debate.

    eurosceptic I issued a warning about your comments, and your followup post deliberately ignored the warning, you're banned for 24 hours.

    Has the Socialist Party pointed out to Generation Yes that they are using a faked image?

    What stuns me is the cheapness of the approach, using an image like this is distasteful to say the least, but they have done the yes camp a big favour with this one, just needs to be exposed and that's all.

    I am still trying to figure out what sort of mindset would allow a photo like this to appear anywhere in a video let alone as the intro.

    Anyone think putting up a response video this would be a good idea?
