Excellent article stephen you are on the ball there 100 percent it will get to the stage as john waters says paddy will be asked by the outsiders what are you doing here paddy
I have two thoughts on this ,one I moved from Kildare to Laois twenty odd years ago and if I was in the put chatting about local stuff I would be told " hey your a blow in " and they are right. Two ,if my self and my wife had moved to the Congo back then and had our children born there , what would we all be "foreigners or outsiders that settled there ", We would never ever be called Congolese by the native people's. Great article Stephen J.
Your right richard what you say the congolese would not be called racist for saying that but when paddy says the truth he's both "racist" and " far right"
So the Irish-Americans are still Irish. Only the native Americans are Americans. Only the Aboriginals are Australians and only the married are New Zealanders, infact there is no such thing as America, New Zealand and Australia. How do you know you are Irish? You might be Norwegian, or English.
You have a logical fallacy here. Your argument is that you can't be Irish unless you and your parents are Irish. Then at any point in the line of generations there is a blow in, you cannot be Irish. Hence, there is no America as only the native Indians are American and for sure they didn't call their continent America. The current population of Americans are all blow ins, bar the native Indians.
One uncommon ancestor does not destroy hereditary 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The whole article deals with this nonsense you are spewing
“Sure at a small level this is insignificant and shouldn’t really be on the menu in terms of pertinence, however we have now crossed the Rubicon in terms of the integrity of the Irish race as 20% of our island is not from here originally”
I am not spewing anything, I pointed out your logical error. If one cannot be Irish if one parent is not Irish, then at any point in your genealogy there is a non Irish, it will affect every generation. If your great great grandfather was a Norwegian, then your great grandad was not born Irish, which affected your grandfather, and then your father, then you. This is your nonsense, not mine. I am merely pointing it out.
Are the Irish Americans Irish or Americans? How many generations makes you Irish? I think the minimum is that you speak Irish. Do you? Can you call yourself Irish if you don't even speak Irish?

Outstanding piece of writing and oh, too, too accurate!

It sounds like your way of thinking is nobody comes from anywhere.

Ah I'm a pure blood Irish man alright Dyf
How many generations have you gone back??? You cannot know for sure.
What's your real name dyf.
Brilliant writing again Stephen, you won’t see that style of writing in the Irish Crimes or Irish non-independent.
A very accurate assessment
