It's from Bitchute, but certainly worth a viewing.
This Is Where We Are Now.
Gaslit or "gaslighted". I think the word you're looking for is gaslit, or gaslighted.
I stopped paying attention to Ireland when they banned swords. Yup, swords. Must've had a widespread problem with "sword violence" in the Emerald Isle... I reckon... that was when I determined I'd never be able to see those shores. If they'll roll over and allow wall decorations to be banned, then stick a fork in 'em, 'cause they're already done.
It's a shame, too. Those Gardai have some deft dance moves. I think I'd fit right in there... all except for that authoritarian problem they have. I don't play well with authoritarians. Went out to eat with my ma and her husband today. Standing in the restaurant, ma said "yer s'posed to put on a mask. There's a sign that says so". Now, ma ought to know me better than that. She's known me all my life. I told her the folks there were welcome to try to put one on me if they felt froggy enough.
So, is America the only place the Irish fighting spirit yet lives? Obviously not - the guy that made the video is Irish, and in Ireland, so that's at least one left on the Old Sod.
But maybe one ain't enough.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
