What do people in your country think about Ireland?
In the US, we pretty much all laugh at it unless you're one of their cringy descendants who live in Boston or something and drinks at the pub all day

My uncle sent the IRA money to help blow up town centers in England :-)
We don't care what foreigners think, would prefer it if you stay away from here in fact.
Based uncle
I don't know how anybody likes us, there is nothing interesting to see here.
Mexico city likes irish people, we have a lot of irish themed bars. and if you ask why well i don’t know
Russians don't know much about Ireland, but most believe that they are based for resisting Brits.
Ireland is a nation of begrudgers
>What do people in your country think about Ireland
like england but more humble
i love ireland
shame the IRA ruined its reputation by turning it into the middle east for a bit.
Good Catholics.
Free Ireland!
I guess, but. Wouldn't have had that problem if English people would just get of our island and go to their own
it was the UK of brits and ire
me casa su casa
I almost never think about it
Finland is Korea of Sweden. Ireland, Korea, Poland, Ukraine, and Finland need to band together.
Some people don't even realise it's a separate country, others simp for them because they're far-left and think it's like some pasty little negro that needs mollycoddling. Personally I find them very hypocritical and conniving and find the way in which they have concocted a fabricated history in which they are a permanently-oppressed underclass very embarrassing indeed
I like their accents and their land. I wish the British would let them have their island. IRA is pretty cool
The average Brazilian doesn't even know that Ireland exist, let alone know the location.
>Personally I find them very hypocritical and conniving and find the way in which they have concocted a fabricated history in which they are a permanently-oppressed underclass very embarrassing indeed
I think a victim complex is bad but it's not a fabricated history, there were penal laws against Catholics
Literally. Just read a book about Irish history and British history. Seriously, killing thousands of Irish people in an English civil war wasn't really wise or productive for the war effort was it? Nah.
its a true history, and one we need to teach more in schools, but the resentment towards each other in modern times is unneeded, most irish people ive met know this and most the hate (i hope) is banter. its the mutts across the pond that are 1% irish that are twats about it lol.
Then why do so many live in dublin?
>here lads, I'm just going over to the other island to kill thousands of people for the craic, ye. To hell or too connacht like
Great move bud
Agreed, I don't hate English people and everyone I know doesn't hate them. It's just jokes. However. A lot or serious when talking about having our land back and having brainwashed English larps up north is very annoying.
Our countries disliking each other is not based in reality, such a weird meme perpetuated for some unknown reason
Yes, but my point is that the castles, universities, libraries, town halls, music, art, literature, poetry, etc that was created in or contributed to Ireland by people of English/British descent, protestants loyal to the English or Scottish churches, or by Unionists is presented to the world as part of some ancient Gaelic tradition, something thoroughly Irish.
I'm not saying that I want to claim it for Britain or 'we wuz', merely making the point that it's a bit hypocritical to claim the culture of the Anglo-Irish people as 'yours' and yet reject anything negative as foreign and a black mark against the English. The overwhelming majority of the Anglo-Irish thought of themselves as Irish first and foremost, yet recognised their distinction from the mass of Irish people. WB Yeats was famously nationalistic but his paternal ancestry came from a man who arrived in Ireland as a soldier of William III. Is he not as much a product of English/British colonisation of Ireland as any Orangeman in Belfast today? Because I would say he was. There's also the way in which the narrative shifts, for example speaking of '850 years of oppression' and then in the next breath talking about Strongbow's men being 'more Irish than the Irish themselves' and bemoaning Tudor and Cromwellian invasions. How can the Tudor monarchs have invaded a country they ruled? How can Anglo-Norman invaders be simultaneously emblematic of both Irishness and English hostility? So much of it makes no sense
No way Ireland says UK
Welcome to the real world mate
Would you say it’s probably all rooted in religion?
yeah i know thats what i said, most "irish people" ive seen that spread that idea are Americans who have probs never set foot on the island
Speaking as someone from a Republican background I want nothing related to this land linked to Britain.
We hold graves of children and other innocents murdered by people who consider themselves British.
Why anyone would want to be part of the UK is beyond me, everyone else is a victim of the racist little Englander conservative voters.
Brothers
its not about wanting to be a part of the UK is about being allies.

I think that's an easy go-to for the unintelligent masses whose blood and/or votes are required to foment political change, but all-in-all not really

>Ignores the whole thread
>Ignores the laws we have specifically with Ireland to allow free travel between the countries and allow Irish people to vote here while being foreign citizens
>Ignores reality
user, so thoroughly Anglicised has Ireland been that even its division into 32 counties was a product of English rule. There is no aspect of Irish culture or society that hasn't been influenced by England, Scotland and Wales
We think of that gnome with green hat, four leaf clover and red haired people
Most people don't care and can't tell the difference between Iceland and Ireland but those who know usually appreciate its history and feel some kind of political affinity between our nations.
And many zoomers celebrate st Patrick's Day
Strange how many of those tins began to disappear after 9/11 and the Boston Bombings. Evidently terrorism isn't such a cool thing when its your infant children having their limbs blown off
I love ireland!!!!!!
Is it true that a British engineer founded Donetsk in the 1800s? I always thought it was an ancient city like Kiev
>Is it true that a British engineer founded Donetsk in the 1800s?
Yeah it's true, I've heard he was Scottish
