i like ireland as much as the next guy and im glad we all like to celebrate their wins but can we stop pretending that just because they had the ira they are the most progressive nation ever?? go read about direct provision and other immigration policy/public sentiment in ireland before saying anything

#not to mention the dublin anti immigration riots from a few months ago #ppl bring up mother and child homes when discussing this topic and those were bad too i just wanted to say something current okay #anyways. irish idolization is kind of weird!! people are so weirdly obsessed about it #in regards to literally everything. well its march now so itll only get worse too #sort of hypocritical of me to make this post given all i do but at least im self aware and educated on history #and make an active effort to not do this 🤷‍♂️
