The Rubber Bandits are ruffling feathers on Twitter, big time.
Not one’s to remain quiet when it comes to social issues, the Limerick lads have been very vocal about their feelings towards Fianna Fáil and their voters amidst the current counts.
Taking to Twitter, the masked men compared Fianna Fáil voters to domestic abuse sufferers, insinuating a resemblance to Stockholm syndrome whereby the victim returns to the abuser in the belief that things will change.
Results show that Irish people vote using the same psychological mechanics as a victim of domestic abuse. “This time it will be different”

In the wake of Michael Lowry retaining his seat in Tipperary North, the duo called in people to “think about what you’ve done” seeming to hint at the controversies around the TD’s financial and tax affairs.
