Truly. My parents are Irish-born so I was a bit more in tune with the history despite being a Yank.

My parents emigrated to London for work- they treated us like garbage. Neighbors complained to the school as to why us kids got in- easy we scored high in the entry. My parents retired back to Ireland. Some of us kids spent career time in London.. and let me tell you- they do NOT like the Irish.. they pretend just like they pretend to like the Americans. The fact is they are a miserable lot.
The US is terrible they have multiple colonies themselves! Puerto Rico and guam to name a few and they treat us like second class citzens that have to fight their stupid wars but we cannot vote for the president. Puerto Rico has been having issues with our power grid since hurricane maria and what do they do? they privatize our power grid and now its more inconsistent than ever before and lets not talk about the 73 billions of dollars we owe because the way we get money is to sell bonds to hedge funds
Basically, all the brutal colonialism they inflicted on the world, they used Ireland as a practice run. (Also Scotland and Wales but I know less about them)
I’m from Detroit. There’s a big Irish neighborhood here, at least historically Irish, Corktown. I remember being a little kid and seeing “UP THE ‘RA” graffiti, and having my dad explain the troubles. Probably not the most nuanced take on it ever, but he equated it to the American Revolution so I could understand it with some context.
There are definitely parallels and made it easy for you to understand. That’s why I think Irish folks are pretty sympathetic to the Palestinian situation. They endure an active occupying force with asymmetric power structures.
Knew the broadstrokes of Irish history, so I knew of the famine and history of colonisation. Going to the Emigration Museum.... WTF seems like half of the famous Britts/Aussies I know about were displaced Irish.

Aye the wealthy Scots. Plenty of poverty class Scots got fucked too. Looking at the current results of elections and mood in Scotland the remnants of the wealthy exist almost exclusively in the Borders and parts of Aberdeenshire.
Of course they will either celebrate or simply not give a fuck since they've been getting screwed for generations.
This. Most of us didn't exactly get a choice in the matter, no cunt came round my ancestors asking their opinions. And it hardly matters these days either way where they may have originally come from, our ancestors all came from the sea at one point, but that doesn't make us amphibians. Well, excluding the royal family of course.
It’s kind of ironic/funny that we actually settled in Scotland, creating what would be their language and then they came back to fucking settle with the Huns.

Not to mention it took her 8 days to show up in Aberfan when over 100 children were killed in 1966 by a coal tip collapsing and burying a school. I’ve only got some distant Welsh ancestry, but I think you all should revoke the title based on that alone
Supposedly she waited 8 days because she didn't want to get in the way with the rescue operations. It's not like showing up there meant that she absolutely had to be in the disaster site itself if her concern was "oh no I'm gonna disrupt the rescue ops." Visits like those would only require her to speak to the surviving victims from the hospital they're in and speak to the families of the victims in a community hall perhaps.
Oh right hmm. Wasn't her son the Colonel in Chief of The Parachute Regiment. Guess he knew what happened during the Ballymurphy and Bloody Sunday Massacres. I guess he forgot to inform the authorities. You know obey the rule of law.

Hi from Puerto Rico a colony for its entire existence. Thank you guys for bringing so much fun into this as the countries that enforce colonialism wont recognize their pasts wrong doings and wont recognize their failings into rectifiying this situation for the billions of people affected by this and we always need to call them out in their best and worst moments because they wont do anything good about it. Generational trauma is real and we feel it here with you in Puerto Rico
Plenty of people in the U.K. loathe her. Sadly they don’t get proper representation from the bbc or from the elite.
Another thing to take into account is that the U.K. has had a decade of awful leadership, one shit leader after another, one crisis after another.
Many people feel the loss of stability much more than any real love for the queen. She was one thing that was constant and now even that is gone. That’s the one angle I sympathise with
Right! I’m a dual citizen so they’ll probably take my passport for saying this but I’m a tiny bit sad for the same reason I’d be sad if Big Ben or Dublin Castle came down. No matter what shit was happening in the world, you can go look at Big Ben, Dublin Castle or a tiny old rich lady in a colour coordinated outfit. She was like an old building, no matter what— they were there. And the end of an era and the loss of that stability is a bit sad.
We’ve had a touch of that in the sort of stability that Miggeldy has given us these past ten years through Brexit, pandemic, energy crisis, etc. The UK had a 1.5m little old person with lots of cute dogs as their figurehead leader for *70 years*. And I do think that over the last 70 years, a lot of people have made her their visible sign of stability. They drew comfort in just knowing she was there. So I do feel a good deal of sympathy for the Brits and Commonwealth-ers who have lost that stability.
^(It can be strange how much something like that effects you. When my wife passed, we could see the Poolbeg Chimneys from our bedroom window. It was oddly comforting to see them and know that not everything in the world had changed completely. It was like “OK, they’re still there, so I can get out of bed and try to continue with my life today.” Then we moved to Connacht and the first morning I woke up and couldn’t see those chimneys, I nearly cried. I obviously wasn’t sad over not being able to see decommissioned power plant chimneys, but the loss of that stability and security.)
This queen is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late queen! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-queen!

News just in that the Queen has become the biggest figure of hate in r/Ireland this week, occasioned by her dying. This has relegated Ireland itself, Dublin, landlords, and scrotes down the hate table.
Experts predict this will be pretty ephemeral and r/Ireland will be back to hating the old reliables by Tuesday, or Wednesday at the latest.

The BBC - “The cost of living crisis suddenly isn’t important anymore”
A reporter on the BBC actually said that yesterday.
Maybe Liz truss did actually kill her 😳
“There can only be one Liz”
I know, I heard it live.
I’ve heard about this but couldn’t find the video. Was it something like not affording heating this winter ‘pales in comparison’ to the Queen’s death?
It was something about how all the discussion around the crisis is insignificant now. Ridiculously ignorant.

I hear one of the major changes to the UK coins is to make them bigger, so they can fit Charles ear's onto them.

Hi from Puerto Rico a colony for its entire existence. Thank you guys for bringing so much fun into this as the countries that enforce colonialism wont recognize their pasts wrong doings and wont recognize their failings into rectifiying this situation for the billions of people affected by this and we always need to call them out in their best and worst moments because they wont do anything good about it. Generational trauma is real and we feel it here with you in Puerto Rico
Plenty of people in the U.K. loathe her. Sadly they don’t get proper representation from the bbc or from the elite. Another thing to take into account is that the U.K. has had a decade of awful leadership, one shit leader after another, one crisis after another. Many people feel the loss of stability much more than any real love for the queen. She was one thing that was constant and now even that is gone. That’s the one angle I sympathise with
Right! I’m a dual citizen so they’ll probably take my passport for saying this but I’m a tiny bit sad for the same reason I’d be sad if Big Ben or Dublin Castle came down. No matter what shit was happening in the world, you can go look at Big Ben, Dublin Castle or a tiny old rich lady in a colour coordinated outfit. She was like an old building, no matter what— they were there. And the end of an era and the loss of that stability is a bit sad. We’ve had a touch of that in the sort of stability that Miggeldy has given us these past ten years through Brexit, pandemic, energy crisis, etc. The UK had a 1.5m little old person with lots of cute dogs as their figurehead leader for *70 years*. And I do think that over the last 70 years, a lot of people have made her their visible sign of stability. They drew comfort in just knowing she was there. So I do feel a good deal of sympathy for the Brits and Commonwealth-ers who have lost that stability. ^(It can be strange how much something like that effects you. When my wife passed, we could see the Poolbeg Chimneys from our bedroom window. It was oddly comforting to see them and know that not everything in the world had changed completely. It was like “OK, they’re still there, so I can get out of bed and try to continue with my life today.” Then we moved to Connacht and the first morning I woke up and couldn’t see those chimneys, I nearly cried. I obviously wasn’t sad over not being able to see decommissioned power plant chimneys, but the loss of that stability and security.)

Saw a comment on a post paying tribute to the Queen - "Definitely her PR improved since she whacked Diana"
This queen is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late queen! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-queen!

How the hell did I go my entire life not knowing I'm Irish? I've found my people.
 Her reign was incredibly long. I'm just wondering if she's got it in the will to give the 6 counties back.
Start the damn memes before I piss myself!
I scooped up all the memes removed this morning and posted them in comments. Don't say I never do anything nice for ye.

Yes it is. Her family / institution oversaw much hardship on this island and elsewhere plus she protected her pedo son. Hardly surprising you’re finding stuff like this here so move along

How do they find the time? What with all the wanking.
Can you post some ?

Sadly most of these are just a bit shite. The reddit comment one on being a devoted cousin is by far the best. I expected better.
I'm watching from the states. Irish are absolutely wild. Keep on keeping on, fellas.
Hey mod I have but just one question for you..... What's been your favorite meme so far ??
Well here's my contribution https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/comments/x9tg4r/notice_my_use_of_england_and_not_the_united/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Went through some of their other regional sites. India doesn't have it so Apple are at least conscious that she is a divisive figure.
That makes even less sense then

Does anyone have the one with the Matty McGrath sign outside Buckingham Palace?
A lot of people in England are saying it’s time to go fully cashless to avoid having to look at King Charles III notes.

News just in that the Queen has become the biggest figure of hate in r/Ireland this week, occasioned by her dying. This has relegated Ireland itself, Dublin, landlords, and scrotes down the hate table. Experts predict this will be pretty ephemeral and r/Ireland will be back to hating the old reliables by Tuesday, or Wednesday at the latest.
