honestly I just read it as Irish people liking potatoes, similar to the stereotype that Germans like sauerkraut
Irish people were forced to eat potatoes because they were subjugated by british lords who took everything else they farmed. When the potato “famine” happened, they were actually still producing plenty of other food, just that the British lords didnt care and still forced them to hand it over.
Admittedly this is the extent of my knowledge on the situation, so you should look it up yourself if you want to know more.
The “Joke” at the irish guy in the greentext is actually pretty insensitive and rude, much moreso than asking a german why he didnt order sauerkraut.
Potatoes aren’t even native to Ireland.
Yeah about a million Irish died and a million emigrated.
Ireland lost a quarter of it’s population.
If the story wasn’t gake and fay, and if that joke about bombing hospitals gets someone into trouble, then the potato joke definitely should as well.
I am at the point where I no longer care who is or isn’t spreading fake news. I TRIED being generous and patient, but I’m at my limit and I don’t care anymore.
I hate all of you. Humans. I hate the entire fucking human race. You won’t FUCKING let me have my opinion. You INSIST I change my beliefs to match yours.
I HATE YOU. I HATE EVERY SINGLE LAST ONE OF YOU. I WANT THIS ENTIRE.FUCKING PLANET NUKED BECAUSE YOU INSIST THAT I AM NOT ENTITLED TO KNOW WHAT I KNOW AND BELIEVE WHAT I BELIEVE AND DO WHAT I DO.
I don’t even expect anyone to change for my sake. I expect you to die because I hate you for being human. Why do I hate all other humans? Because you hated me, you took EVERYTHING from me. YOU DON’T DESERVE TO EVER BE HAPPY ABOUT ANYTHING EVER AGAIN!
