Paddy is very needy.
I laughed out loud at that.
Well whatever Irishness is, I’m pretty sure honking horns gloating at the Queen’s death isn’t a representation of it any normal person would want.
These people are the exact flip side of the bigots who put “KAT” and images of Martin McGunness on bonfires.
The people who do that subscribe to a fake, caricatured version of Britishness which people in Britain want nothing to do with.
Similarly any reasonable Irish person wants nothing to do with the attitudes of these bigots who exercise bigotry in the name of so called “Irishness”.
If your “identity” is such a mean, miserable, begrudging, negative, toxic thing that it leads you onto the streets to celebrate the Queen’s death, it’s demonstrably an identity that isn’t worth having.

Needy is the least of it. Any objections by any of these gobshites to Loyalist bonfires displaying “KAT” signs or images of Martin McGuinness or John Hume are entirely bogus. This is the exact type of society they want. A society of perpetual hatred and wanton dehumanisation. They’ve just proved it.
Will you go back home for the mourning period?
So… celebrate Maggie death good…
Celebrate Lizzie death disgraceful…

This is excellent messaging by Michelle O’Neill. Personally I think she’s a good deal more formidable a politician than Mary Lou.

Some of us have moved on and are a lot older and wiser, buddy. I was no fan of Thatcher and never will be. I think she was awful. It wasn’t clever and it wasn’t right to celebrate her death, it was wrong and it was small.
Nevertheless one can at least rationalise people celebrating Thatcher’s death as she was a deeply toxic figure who destroyed communities and displayed a deeply hostile attitude to Ireland.
The Queen? Nah.
Imagine, you can have a different opinion to someone else?

Imagine, you can develop different opinions as you get older.
The INTERNET doesn’t allow that though.
No need to wonder about why public discourse is in the state it’s in.
Exactly that. Might be worth keeping in mind on occasion

You’re the worst cunt on here for digging up old posts, and selectively editing them

I don’t edit posts to take what people said out of context. I also enjoy the hilarity of people digging in and defending idiotic opinions they know are idiotic rather than just admitting they were idiotic.
I enjoy making posters who deserve to to be made look foolish look foolish.
And by jaysus you’ve looked very foolish here lately as you’ve kept digging in to moronic opinions!
I had a very hearty laugh at this.

Ironing mate. It’s you who is calling people with different opinions or from different lived experiences toxic and bigoted mate. Seems you might learn to live and let live a bit more.

The views of those people aren’t from lived experience. That’s the point. They’re the views of young hotheads angry that they don’t live in a romanticised “heroic age” where they can shoot “themmuns” and are thus desperate to do idiotic things to try and “prove” their “Irishness” through demonstrations of hatred against “themmuns”. Just like bigots on the other side are angry hey can’t shoot “themmuns” and try to “prove” their Britishness with their KAT signs and putting images of Martin McGuinness on bonfires.
So, do you think these sort of opinions and mindsets are toxic and bigoted? Or do you think are they not?
I know you love straight answers…
This is all very unedifying squabbling from Paddy as we mourn the passing of Her Majesty.
