Blueshirtism

"Not to be confused with Chinese Blueshirtism"

Blueshirtism is an authoritarian unity, culturally far-right, ideology based on the ideas of Clerical Fascism in Ireland. The ideology is practiced by the short-lived political party Army Comrades Association, later called the National Guard, then Young Ireland and for the final time, the League of Youth, well known as The Blueshirts.

The ideology is named simply after the party that is mentioned before. However, the members of that party are sometimes nicknamed "Blueshirts".

History
The history will be mainly about the party itself that uses the ideology as it's basis.

The 1932 Public Safety Act in Ireland was suspended, lifting bans on numerous organizations such as the Irish Republican Army, along with some of the organization's political prisoners released. In 1932, Ned Cronin founded the party known as the Army Comrades Association. The party is for the Irish army veterans, according to their name. They believe that freedom of speech is being 'repressed', and now providing security at events at Cumann na nGaedheal, leading to clashes between the Irish Republican Army and the Army Comrades Association. It had more than 30,000 by September, 1932.
