Here lies a toppled God. His fall was not a quiet one


















Most Americans who call themselves Irish aren’t talking about the same thing as the famine Irish of Boston and New York. A huge number are really Scots-Irish — English and Scottish border stock, Protestant frontier people whose ancestors came out of the borderlands, were planted in Ulster, then pushed into Appalachia, Tennessee, Kentucky and the South. Not Dublin. Not Cork. Not the tenements. A harder, older story of border clans, rifles, honour, feuds, distrust of authority and life on the edge of empire. The green beer version of Irish-American identity hides a lot. For millions, the real roots are English, Scottish, Ulster, frontier, Presbyterian, hill country and rebellion. Different people. Different history. Different temperament. 🏴🏴🇬🇧

We The People Of Ireland Categorically State; The Government Of Ireland Have Broken The Social Contract. They No Longer Have A Mandate In Which To Govern. Confidence & Trust In This Gov Is Irreversibly Revoked. Step Down. Resign.
