Haha, my lousy country? I’m born and bred in Dublin mo chara. Guessing you’re a North American mutt desperately clinging to some vestige of Gaelic culture on your barstool over the pond? And no, we get on okay with the Brits these days. Still some issues with the Ulster Scots but dealt with relatively peacefully these days. Wait, are they the pipes I hear a-calling?!
So we are guilty and deserve to be hated by the most catered to group in the last 60 years' with bitterness and violence b/c they're great, great, great, great grand pappy was a slave but you're good pals with your great great grandpas slaver. Don't see the hypocrisy do ya?
The way I see it, I have as much of a reason to be violent and angry b/c my Irish ancestors were slaves in America as the blacks. I have more reason. My people were slaves more recently and they didn't get all the perks that blacks get.
I studied American culture/history, not Irish and have no desire to go to Ireland. As to languages I never studied Gaelic, nor do I hang out on barstools. Sounds like a liberal, make crap up and act superior or upset by it
Stop being a victim for Christ’s sake, we Irish endure, we do not wallow. But incidentally, “your people” fucking ran, my people stayed and endured. Ask my bollix about the “slavery” ye suffered when ye took to the road.
