literally begging americans to stop talking out their arse about scottish culture and identities
#FIRSTLY#scotch is an english word and has never been used to describe scots about themselves or as an identifier#modern scots uses the word scottish and early modern uses the word scottis#scotch is a broth or a pie#SECONDLY#the snp first came into power in 2007 (21st c. which is a weird way to specify it anyway)#in a scottish parliament that only came into being in 1999#THIRDLY#the hat she's referring to is a tam#some people will call it a bunnet but a bunnet is a more generalist term for a man's hat#i won't admonish writers for writing into other cultures (it's cool!) but like... don't answer questions like an authority#especially when you're wrong on multiple fronts
