Good post.

West Brits are objectively the best type of Irish.
>>70545330
Some of the first works of literature in europe we written by the Irish, also you do have a rich history it just isn't widely known because your country didn't really step onto the world stage
pretty underrated imo
>>70545330
Partially wrong. Your diaspora has been a major cultural player in other countries.

Don't be a fag, OP.
Ireland is a minor nation by every definition of the word, but we're dripping with culture.
Irish is one of the oldest languages, our literature is some of the oldest, irish philosophers were all over Europe and sought in debates (for some reason), we revolutionized guerrilla warfare and produced some utterly top-tier politicians and and soldiers, whether they fought for Ireland or for England/elsewhere.
We gave the vikings a good battering, and bettered the English for a very long time; the english/british were objectively better at it than we were, but for all we had we gave them a good fight of it.
I would like to see a United Ireland some day, but only when the people want it. I'd like to see a genuine united people. None of this "we hate the british" shite. You fellas outside of the 6 counties fought them hard and eventually you won.
The fellas in the 6 counties are split between those who don't feel irish but find themselves on Ireland and those who feel irish but find themselves in an area marked as the UK.
Like it or not, Britain is part of our history and even if they no longer hold any of our island in the future, that will never change.
Less of the "them" and "us".
Irish people are a small group from a tiny island, but we spread all over the world.
Irish people were never very rich and never very powerful, but wherever you did find them you often found pretty decent warriors, writers and workers.
We're also slowly upping our shitposting game, which is great.
Don't be down, OP. Chill out.

>tfw everybody thinks your country is a war zone when in reality is not that bad
I still got a bit of that ooga booga in me.
Sometimes while I'm working I get this urge to go dance around a fire and sacrifice an animal.

Have a song for your nation, pal.
>you can't claim to be diaspora because muh heritage and you're too far disconnected from your past origins; don't even know what they are
>can't claim to be a "native" american because you live on stolen land and brown people always tell you to "go back to Europe"
>no real cultural identity
>until pic related
>but that's not allowed either

It's amazing that I just heard abour this song a few days ago. A British girl I met on Tinder told me about it last weekend. It's a pity it's not very popular.
Apparently, Athlete did visit El Salvador.
Apparently, they did visit El Salvador.

You HAD a rich heritage and identity, look at the global appeal of St Paddy's, but you blew that all away when you decided to become Multi-cultural Shithole #36.
