I'm sure your ancestors would be aghast at the mere thought


Back when the Irish in America weren't considered White but lazy, drunk brutish dogs full of gangs.



quote:

The struggles of Irish immigrants were compounded by the poor treatment they received from the white, primarily Anglo-Saxon and Protestant establishment. America's existing unskilled workers worried they would be replaced by immigrants willing to work for less than the going rate. And business owners worried that Irish immigrants and African-Americans would band together to demand increased wages.

As a result, locals didn't take kindly to an influx of Irish immigrants competing for resources perceived as limited. In Boston alone, 37,000 Irish immigrants arrived in 1847 — growing the city's population by more than 30 percent, straining employment, rations, housing and relations between populations.

Irish often were portrayed as racially different from the wider population of Caucasians and those of Anglo-Saxon heritage, writes historian Noel Ignatiev in his 1995 book "How the Irish Became White." Irish immigrants, both male and female, were drawn with brutish, ape-like features. Even pseudoscience got in on the act. "Comparative Physiognomy," a book by James Redfield published in 1852, made comparisons between the facial structure of Irish people and dogs. Redfield went on to claim that, because of their appearance, the Irish had an animalistic character that made them cruel and cowardly.

Ireland belongs to the Irish. If a 3rd worlders shits out a kid on Irelands soil, that kid isn’t nor will ever be Irish.

Not sure if the issue was fixed but for many years Ireland was being uses as a tax haven for mega corporations. This made the country look wealthier than it really was at the base level.

I have and can make the argument that the Irish as the people have been the most oppressed throughout history.

Their entire country was taken from them some were enslaved, All were subject to famine even though they were growing an abundance of food.
In their own country and throughout the world were seen as 3rd class citizens.

But their women, especially the redheads were highly valued as sex slaves.

Because the #1 way it became their problem was because the USA govt loved interfering in foreign countries

They need to stand on their own just like we are trying to do.


Instead of saying, "Sorry we fricked your country, but now it's your problem," we could give them weapons to take back their country.

How much more useful would all those weapons we gave to terrorists and cartels be if we gave them to patriotic White Europeans instead?

How about we take those billions we give to Israel, who has their own military power, and give it to White Europeans to take back our ancestral homelands.

At the very least, we could encourage Europeans to take back their countries by refusing to do business with or partnering with any country that doesn't allow freedom of speech and doesn't expel the foreigners.

Some conservatives will complain because it involves spending money or using our leverage through tariffs, but the globalist deep state isn't going to be defeated through inaction. Plus, they always complain, so who cares.

Some may try to compare it to the US's past foreign policy disasters of "spreading democracy" and "nation building", but those people are just incapable of recognizing the difference between using military force and propaganda to push a globalist agenda vs providing other citizens with the tools to take back their countries from authoritarian regimes. Once you realize that we weren't actually spreading democracy or building up nations, it's easy to see the distinction.

They also don't seem to understand that a European caliphate or letting the achievements of Western civilization be destroyed isn't good for anyone.

Years ago I met an Irish girl at a bar. She had that rare combination of red hair, green eyes, and was a total smoke show.

I asked "Are you from Ireland?"

She kind of rolls her eyes and says "Aye, how could ya tell?"

"Because right now my penis is Dublin."

I did not take her home with me.

The day will come when crusades arise again. American boys will hit the ground in Ireland, England, Germany, Belgium, etc… and drive the horde of radical Islamist out of each country. America first of course. Maybe we should start this sooner than later.

I don't claim a deep understanding of Irish politics other than a general knowledge that they are very far to the left of me but major change never comes from gentlemanly candidates. Sometimes there's a need for the "burn this motherfricker to the ground" candidate. McGregor seems ideal.

But this is exactly what they call operations like what we did in Ukraine to overthrow a pro-russian govt and help install a pro-western gov. We'll just keep doing such things the next time a dem president is elected and claim we are just trying to help save them from fascists.

What is considered "good" is all relative, especially to the people living there. They have to decide what is good for themselves. We absolutely cannot be a part of it because no matter what we are trying to do, it will build opposition within the other country due to unwanted outside influence.

Conor's concerns are completely valid but nothing we can do about it.


Ireland needs to fix itself.



Yes
Agree

But what a better voice and stage to let the world know what is happening
