What happened in Ireland in 1916?
>>18402438You tell me
Golly, what didn't happen to Ireland in 1916? Boy, it was just crazy. You should have been there.
>>18402438Genuinely they only became leaders because they were executed. Most people in Dublin at the time would probably still have been satiated with Home Rule within the British Empire and the martyrdom of the Easter Uprising rebels is what radicalized a lot of people
>>18402438The Irish brought a petition to the British administration asking for independence so they can bring unlimited immigration in and turn the country into a tax haven for multinational companies and the British said no.
>>18402503It was 80 years after independence that mass immigration instigated by neo liberals began. Britain had mass immigration from 1950s on. I never seen a non white person in my life until I visited London as a kid in 1998.

>Germany is not allowed to play zookeeper to slavic apes everyone has a right to self determination :)>Ireland? THE ISLAND WILL SINK IF ITS NOT A BRITISH LABOR PLANTATION WE HAVE A RIGHT TO RULE IT WAS PROMISED TO US EIGHT HUNDRED YEARS AGO
>>18402680>zookeeper to slavic apesEnjoy Hell
>>18402681ok its equipped, can you say that again
>>18402661cope taig>Almost immediately after the Battle of the Bogside, Devlin undertook a tour of the United States in August 1969, a trip which generated a significant amount of media attention. She met with members of the Black Panther Party in Watts, Los Angeles and gave them her support. She made appearances on Meet the Press and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. At a number of speaking events, she made parallels between the struggle in the US by African Americans seeking civil rights and Catholics in Northern Ireland, sometimes to the embarrassment of her audience. During an event in Philadelphia, she had to goad an African American singer to sing "We Shall Overcome" to the Irish-American audience, many of whom refused to stand for the song. In Detroit, she refused to take the stage until African Americans, who were barred from the event, were allowed in. In New York, Mayor John Lindsay arranged a ceremony to present Devlin with a key to the city of New York. Devlin, frustrated with conservative elements of the Irish-American community, left the tour to return to Northern Ireland and, believing the freedom of New York should go to the American poor, sent Eamonn McCann to present the key on her behalf to a representative from the Harlem chapter of the Black Panther Party.[14][15][16]
>>18402720What the fuck has any of that got to do with what I says you schizo cunt?
>>18402739It means you need to go back to irish nationalist twitter you pathetic taig.
>>18402438an American lead coup to undermine British power during the peak of the first world war and to gradually transfer that hegemony over to them
>>18402438Britain tried to prevent Ireland from being taken over by Marxist socialists who wanted to kill all white English people
>>18402503>>18402720Ireland isn’t even a fraction as bad as the YooKay is currently
>>18402438They started a war that involved them burning down their own archives, then they whine that it's difficult to trace their history.
>>18402816>>18402871Look at this lying kike piece of shit.
>>18402796You need to rope yourself. I pity anyone who knows you and has to suffer your existence.
>>18402886>You need to rope yourself. I pity anyone who knows you and has to suffer your existence.
>>18402933I don't give a fuck about Sinn féin I'm not a shinner or a Republican so whats the point in that?
>>18402438>what happened in 1916The Irish Volunteers, having returned to the control of revolutionary members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, joined the Irish Citizen Army in a rebellion centered in Dublin. While it was planned to be much larger, last minute attempts to cancel the move by moderates within the Volunteers resulted in only a tiny fraction of the Irish Volunteers actually rebelling.The plan, however, was not to begin a war there and then; this *was* the plan of the socialists in the Irish Citizen Army, but the leaders of the rebellion hoped that an act of sacrifice would rouse the largely docile Irish electorate into supporting independence. As >>18402448 notes, they hoped that Britain would be overly harsh in their response and expose an underlying malice for Ireland which they believed many Irish people had either forgotten or were content to ignore.Their hopes were answered, as Britain's response was so hopelessly retarded that between 1916 and 1918 they allowed what began as a tiny fringe movement to win a landslide victory at the elections-resulting in the Irish War of Independence.>tl;drYet again, a combination of incompetence and malice from Britain set them permanently onto the backfoot in Ireland.
>>18402884Did they or did they not burn the archives during the Easter Rising?
>>18403052>Did they or did they not burn the archives during the Easter Rising?No they did not.
>>18403052They did not. You are likely thinking of the Four Courts explosion, part of the Battle of Dublin-the opening stage of the Irish Civil War, years later in 1922.The Public Record Office is part of the Four Courts building which the IRA occupied-at one stage there was an enormous explosion which destroyed countless extremely important records-some of which dated back centuries and centuries. While the IRA were initially blamed for the explosion by the National Army, it was later discovered that this was a lie as there was no evidence to suggest they'd done anything of the sort. The exact cause has never been found, but it's still a tragedy.It makes geneological research in Ireland beyond the 19th Century very, very difficult for most people.
>>18402503Eventually they got what they fucking wanted through the Anglo-Irish treaty, so I'm not sure what they're still so pissed about. The Irish war of independence was just a total shitshow, especially in Dublin with the easter rising. And yet today they bitch and moan about how they were oppressed.
>>18402680Upon hearing the name "Ireland" British people seem to just go into a frenzy. They truly believe that they have the right to unconditionally rule over the island. I believe it has to with some self-rightous thinking, they think they're heroes for what they did in World War II and thus deserve all the lands they wish to rule as a reward. It's really quite tiresome to converse with a Brit on the matter. Though the British are really insightful when it comes to topics like World War I, the 30 Years War, and World War II, but when it comes to the topic of the Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, their opinions are dogshit.
>>18403177>Though the British are really insightful when it comes to topics like World War I, the 30 Years War, and World War II, but when it comes to the topic of the Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, their opinions are dogshit.The last two are british though.Why are you pretending "british people are ruling over scotland and wales" when those countries are a part of britain?
>Jews move to Rome>Persecuted by Arabs and driven into Europe after turning to Christianity>Said newly Christian Jews move through diaspora to Ireland>Instantly become the primary target of English freemasons (Rome)>Said Christian Jews, now called the Irish, move to America to escape such persecution >... To be persecuted by the same people, againGive me a fucking break, man...
>>18403209Funny joke mate, but in all honesty, the two should be independent, especially Scotland. Scotland has literally had to put up with the English's crap since the late 18th century, and Wales even longer. All the political and economic power in the UK is in England, after all. The United Kingdom is just a front for English boots to continue to stomp on the necks of the good people of Wales and Scotland.
>>18403268bait
>>18403280Give him three good reasons contrary.
>>18403268England subsidizes the relatively extensive Welsh and Scottish welfare programs while they themselves are stuck in a thatcherite dystopia, if anything England is the one that should want to leave the union if you only look at the political and economic balance of power.
their leaders where executed can you not read you retard
>>18402438A group of German backed Commies decided to turn traitor.
>>18403216What kinda schizo shite is that?
>>18403329They weren't any more "backed by Germany" than the Ulster Unionists were in 1912.
>>18402503The Irish atleast try something against like putting migrant centers on fire
>>18402680Germany wanted to genocide Slavs. Stop making false equivalencies.
>>18402816Trvth
>>18402680I look like this and say this.
>>18403927Britain had riots two years ago more extreme than anything the irish have ever doen you retarded american mutt
>>18402438Chimpout
summoning potatofag if you're here, but in some insane fantasy land where the "Irish Republic" as of 1916 is founded, what sort of country would it be? assuming everything went right, or at least mostly right
>>18403340Read a book, nigger.
>>18403920OK Paddy.
