    The Palestine thing unravelled my image of that man completely. I don’t have a vote or anything but he does claim to be “Irish” which grates on us no end over here, where most people are anti-genocide.

      I’m skeptical as fuck that you are a real live irish 😑 anyone who is a real Irish American knows the only people who can point to Ireland on the map died in the potato famine. Awfully shady a real live Irish Irishman doesn’t know THAT about being irish😑😑😑 /s

      But foreal I kid. Not even bashing Biden or anyone otherwise but I instantly assume someone’s dumb as fuck if they advertise where there their great great gramps used to fuck while they’re 3-4 generations deep in fuckin Jersey or something.

      The only reason I commented tho is to ask, what are your opinions whe you catch random Americans giving you a good ole’ nationality hickey?

      I mean everywhere you look you can get ancestry history test but I have yet to see a single one at st. Patties day parade, Dingus day, Cinco de mayo, boxing day. If I never have the proof of purchase of where I come from, can I just make shit up? or is that too anti-cultural mis-inappropriation nowadays?
