On The Flip Side


I mentioned in an earlier piece some suggested approaches when asking for a favour.

A Youth Defence fan demanded I run stats on @choiceIreland. Perhaps raised by wolves, he proved unable to form the bilabial plosive required to commence the word 'please'. Having allowed the better part of a fortnight for him to develop the requisite skills I find myself still disappointed.

As you can guess, Youth Defence have irked me. That said I recognise that they are not the entirety of the pro life movement, and I've encountered more decent folk than not on Twitter of late. @NaasPreacher is a fine ambassador for his faith. @IrelandsEar seems the sort of chap (I dare assume gender) with whom I'd enjoy about two pints and a good-natured disagreement.


Youth Defence is not the entirety of the pro life movement and there are decent folk who have questions  I may be able to help answer. I have yet to be asked any questions, I should add, but I feel it reasonable to assume some curiosity on Twitter stats for pro choice groups.

I covered @ProudProChoice earlier, today I look at @ChoiceIreland. The top image is a word cloud of their followers' Twitter biographies. To the right you will observe the breakdown of the nationalities of their followers. At 11% from the USA, the rumours of American infiltration of Ireland to promote the abortion industry seems improbable.

Should you trust me?

If not, I applaud your skepticism. You should always ask for proof and sources. The usernames are reversed and vowels replaced with * to prevent spamming - a courtesy I also extended to Youth Defence followers. You can easily confirm for yourself by doing some spotchecks against @ChoiceIreland's follower list.
