I have recently published a piece in lighter vein about my impression that modern Ireland is leaning into a supposed pagan past for its aesthetics in the withdrawal of explicitly religious iconography from our visual landscape.

My feeling is that the monetisation of this is a big mistake - these pagan myths are much more complicated and darker than the Jim Fitzpatrick aesthetic makes them out to be.

I've also watched the same parade in 1990 - I can still remember it!

But I'd love to hear your opinion.
