And the British didn't do anything to me or my family personally, they did it to my country.

Hang on, I thought they didn't have anything to do with it? Which is it? |

Uh, it was caused by a potato disease, and what they did was in reference to the escapades of Oliver Cromwell, not a potato disease. Are you suggesting the British caused a potato disease? |

Oh that explains it.
But hang on, so why didn't they just go eat other food?

"At the end of the day, you will pay the price if you're a fussy eater."
RUSSELL will use intense pedantry over precise wording whenever he can to try and remain in an argument. He will now come back and say something like "I never said they had nothing to do with people dying, I said they had nothing to do with the potato famine itself".
The point at hand is that RUSSELL has tried to invoke the potato famine and deaths of the Irish as a British racial atrocity towards them, thus demonstrating that the Irish have had it just as bad as other races and calling RUSSELL a "mick" or whatever is an unacceptable as the racial slurs he frequently deploys in his own arguments.
Now, in his haste to fire a zingy comeback, he's completely undermined his earlier argument and is far too myopic to have even realised. The obvious truth is that the Irish suffer almost no prejudice in modern society and so "racial slurs" against them are about as harmful as calling a German a "kraut" or a Frenchman a "frog".
Of course, RUSSELL won't read any of this because he has me on Ignore. |
