Looks like he’s an English lad pretending to be Irish. He has another answer explaining how the vast majority of Irish people in the South prefer partition…
I don’t know, in the last few months I’ve been noticing this tactic more and more.
At least Brussels doesn’t put Irish people to the slaughter and deliberately starved us
Typical moronic English view of the world. God forbid his ilk would look inwards at his own country’s democratic deficit.
As much as I strongly disagree with the guy and think the EU is the best ting to ever happen to Ireland full stop.
His opnion was actually shared by my grand mother at the time of Ireland joining the EU and after. she was born in 1918 and rembered the last British troops leaving Ireland (all be it a foggy child hood memory) but still it’s interesting to see that some people alive during the time actually did hold that veiw even if it was ABIT daft
She also loved Dev so ya know take of that what you will
Shut up Farage you’ve had too much to drink
Yoons regularly use this bollocks against Scottish independence all the time.
Gonna rant, but Quora is full of this shit, people asking “questions” which are really just troll statements to fan anger and hate in the little insular communities on there.
“If black people only make up 30% of the population, why are they in 99% of ads” was one I read the other day. The yanks in the answers didn’t take two lines to devolve into an “inferior race” circlejerk.
Sothern Ireland? It’s just Ireland or the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland but there is no such country as Southern Ireland, Fuckin ignorant pricks
What are we being told to do exactly? Genuinely curious
At it again. Gave themselves away in the first line.
The difference is, the E.U. treats Ireland as part of the club – the Brits treated us as ass-wipes. I wonder if you’re smart enough to figure out stuff like that?
On Quora, there are a lot of anti-EU trolls trying to stir up resentment. I don’t wear a tin foil hat but I wouldn’t be surprised if some of Putin’s misinformation campaign is behind some of it.
I’d vote for a unified Ireland if the referendum came up tomorrow. Not that I particularly care if the North joins the Republic, but it’s one of those cultural things where the expectation is just to vote yes, despite the political turmoil that will follow for decades thereafter.
First clue he’s English, he said southern Ireland instead of Irish people
The difference being Ireland WANTED to be apart of the EU
He also doesn’t seem to know that we joined the EEC because the UK joined the EEC we had to as the UK was our main trading partner.
Also before 1916 there had been a peaceful push for home rule in Ireland supported by Protestant and Catholic parties.
No one from Ireland calls it ‘southern ireland’, this lads obviously some kinda shit stirrer from elsewhere.
It is a bit ironic how bad we’ve let the foreign landlord situation get.
Kinda is lol. IMO the EU is a good idea but should have a bit less central authority
“Southern Ireland” well he just destroyed his facade lol, hes clearly British
Representative Democracy vs. Authoritarian Occupation.
Yeah, definitely similar.
Anyone else getting annoyed when they say ”Southern Ireland or Southern Eire”???
What fucking vegetable are they using for a brain?
He fails to realise that one ‘union’ was forced onto Ireland and its people and the European union was…wait for it…voted for by the Irish people. The Irish people did not vote to be apart of the British empire/UK they did however democratically vote to be apart of the EEC now the EU. One union was an oppressive monster, the other union is a friend that promotes peace and cultural identity.

People like this are the reason warning labels are plastered on everything.
Shite statement aside, has he never heard of the o Neills of ulster?
I typed in the title and couldn’t find the Quora link. What were the answers like? Surely some entertainment to be found there
