What triggered the worst riots on the streets of Dublin, Ireland, in decades? The rioting, as it should be, was condemned for its destruction and hooliganism in the wake of a shocking stabbling incident in Parnell Street by a man identified as a naturalized citizen born abroad. The motive for the stabbling, which injured three children and a woman, was not clear. But mainstream media and the Irish government and local police, pinned the blame on right wing extremists. Is that it? The reality could point to something more sinister, a state of affairs given only curt attention, or dismissed in the popular media narratives. On this episode, we'll offer some context and more credible reasons for the mayhem in Dublin.

Here's how the Guardian newspaper covered the riots:

"A strange duality characterised Thursday’s riots in Dublin: the level of violence caught most people by surprise, and yet there was also a feeling of inevitability about it. Ireland’s Booker prize-winning novelist Paul Lynch captured the mood in his acceptance speech on Sunday, when he said he was “astonished” by the disturbances but that the possibility for such disquiet to break out is “always under the surface.

"Few expected to see the capital descend into a violent hellscape during evening rush hour. But factcheckers like myself who monitor Ireland’s far right – as part of our work verifying online content and debunking misinformation – have witnessed how the movement instigated city-wide destruction after building on anti-immigrant sentiment over the past year."
