standing at the crossroads [black & white hand of ancient ulster]

ABOUT

I’m Irish so I can offer a local ulster reference, a symbol of the O’Niell, the last anarcho-oligarchs of Brehon Ireland,  which I am of, and adopted by loyalist paramiltaries and the state broadcaster. Much the same way as the term anarchy got propagandised.
