  • I’m pretty sure you’re not Irish, you don’t know anyone Irish, and you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

    The IRA has no current analogue in the US. The IRA devolved into a criminal organization that terrorized the Irish just as much as the occupying brits.

    Your accelerationist language and complete lack of nuance in your take tells me that you’re just looking for outrage. There are no good or bad guys. This isn’t a movie.

    I wish you good luck and better mental health in the future. They say vitamin D supplements can help if you’re not getting enough sunshine wherever you are.



  • A lot of Irish did too. The country is still divided, the violence that was enacted also enabled all sorts of tertiary problems as well. Running drugs to buy guns, bomb makers being poisoned by the components of the bombs. Innocent Irish families dying from bombs being set to the wrong time. Torture, maming and killing of Irish who refused to get involved.

    And again, Ireland is still divided.

    Don’t get me wrong, British policy has killed more Irish than the IRA ever did, but it wasn’t some happy fucking holidays to the coast to gun down some black and tans. It was decades of terror and oppression. Not something to be bandied about online from a keyboard because you’re frustrated that Amerikkka is now showing the true nature of it’s system in place.




  • No, you need to consider the National Guard and all armed forces in the US and Abroad.

    IF there is a civil war it’s not going to be a bunch of citizens armed with AR pattern rifles shooting at the soldiers. It would be Palintir finding the communication hubs of any resistance fighters and a drone strike at the center of it, with a platoon of Marines coming in to clean up and post security. The Army close behind to go through and secure any surrounding structures and setup a FOB to prevent further insurrection.

    It will be factions of the military fighting itself, and it would be devastating. Think Gaza but across two million square miles.







  • TLDR: People are nicer outside in person.

    Positivity is a muscle. Exercise it internally. Have a kinder more upbeat inner monologue.

    Learn the peace of being alone. Remember that comparison is the theif of joy. Focus on finding a rewarding hobby. Seek that hobby out in the meatspace. You’ll find people to be more positive and kind face to face. Anonymous communities enable trolls and doomers.

    I started with walking around my neighborhood. Got a dog from the pound. Went to the dog park, struck up conversations and found some people were talking about a show I liked. Through friends of friends I’m now more connected to my neighborhood and helping around our community garden. Not saying that will work for you, but people are pretty forgiving of an eaves dropper at places like the dog park or in line at the grocers.
