So Conor McGregor is a #trump fan, and spouted a bunch of anti-immigration nonsense while at the White House.
Am I the only one who thinks it ironic that someone IRISH is against immigration?
As an Irish man myself I find it abhorrent that anyone Irish could ever have anti-immigrant views.
It's estimated that anything up to 85% of the Irish population emigrated during the famine. And we weren't always welcomed with open arms, but we went because we had no choice.
If anyone should understand the reasons why people emigrate it's the Irish, and any Irish person who doesn't is sorely lacking in historic education.
@adaliabooks You summed up exactly why I thought it was such bad tastes for him to have those views.
I am not Irish, but I have known a couple and you're intelligent, funny, hardy people and it shows you had a rough history from your culture.
I dunno why anyone Irish would EVER support Trump except for pure greed.
@adaliabooks It's unnatural. @RationalizedInsanity
@adaliabooks @RationalizedInsanity I feel this too as a Jewish person and horrified that not only are many Jews justifying expulsion and genocide, they are leading it. It’s so messed up. We should all absolutely know better.
