• there is an allusion to a potential threat posed by the presence of the target, or its alleged outnumbering with respect to the native population

Please do not forget that and act like Ireland is a vassal state of the UK or the EU. PLEASE DO NOT ENGAGE IN STUPID and DAMAGING ACTIONS AGAINST RUSSIA. Keep good relations with Russia!
