      >Karl, whose great-grandfather came from County Cork, says he would like to see a united Ireland, but admits he doesn’t follow the intricacies of Irish domestic politics. 

      Karl can shut his fucking pipe and worry about his own country.

      >Gerry Adams, the leader of Sinn Féin from 2011 to 2018, …

      Hmmm.

      If Google said they’d leave Ireland in 5 years without reunification then FG would have all 2 of our naval ships in Belfast tomorrow

      Perhaps the Yanks should try to stop voting in a convicted criminal first.

      ‘Irish American’ is an obsolete term that isn’t recognised in Ireland, Great Britain, or anywhere in Europe for that matter. I think the Plastic Paddies ought to keep to their own turf in these sorts of debates

      Yeah we want a united Ireland too , but would Irish America fuck off and let us sort out this shit by ourselves

      Something abit hollow about that id much prefer they stay out of it and it happens naturally by the people and not just those caught up in an algorithm on Twitter pushing it

      More American patriots pouring money into the Irish tourism economy and uniting Ireland and Reddits immediate response is to shit on them.

      That’s great for them because when it goes wrong and bankrupts the country, they’re far, far away…

      Fix our own problems before we add more to the list

      Irish-Americans (aka Americans) are more Irish than Irish-non Americans (aka the Irish), so if that’s what they want sure let them sort it out with the brits.

      “Rich American wants to piss away money on vanity project in Ireland”.

      Cool.

      If we wanted advice from people who’s solution to gun deaths are more guns we would ask for it

      Albeit we would be backing away slowly with our hands clearly in view , and hoping our farmer tan wasn’t gonna get us shot.

      That’ll cost about ten billion quid a year.

      Thanks a m^billion lads

    16. The comments on here are ridiculous

      Maybe we should get Klarna to broker the deal with the US and pay for 1 county at a time

      6 additional counties will not bankrupt us haha. Jesus the obvious propaganda is working on a few it seems.

      Irish America does not exist.

      What used to exist, on the contrary, was the funding of the IRA by the US though.

      Fucking gobshites barely have a United States. They can feck off and cry wank to a u2 album.

      Maybe we can just take their money and spend it on other things?

      Like each town having their own indoor 24 hours bouncy castle.

    21. halibfrisk on

      I’m not sure an afternoon spent in an Irish bar in Yonkers talking shite with the regulars justified that headline?

      & Mentioning SF US based support and “34 million Irish Americans” in the same sentence is journalistic malpractice.

      I live in the US and my perception is no 4th generation Irish American is going to open their wallet for a united ireland and there’s no appetite either from democrats or republicans to shovel money at ireland, the (not unfair) perception now is ireland is doing very well in the niche we have carved, there are a lot more pressing issues for their attention and support

      the GFA / the Clinton presidency was 30 years ago, Biden and Pelosi’s personal goodwill towards ireland is great but it is a vestige of that time, and the sad fact is they should both have passed the baton decades ago

      I’m American, and my father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate was Irish, so that must entitle me to an opinion on what should happen to a country I’ve never lived in and know absolutely nothing about.

    23. GarthODarth on

      Listen, if we can convince them to spend their money on something something Belfast something something and not on exporting bombs, we might do some good in the world. Just gotta come up with a plan to keep them busy so they leave that other lot alone.

      America can’t even fund affordable healthcare for their own citizens.

      Irish born and living in America – “Irish Americans” can go fuck themselves. They have zero knowledge of anything related to Ireland and are some of the most egotistical, racist people I’ve ever met.

      Willing to pay for it?

      > The group, which is registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act as an agent of Sinn Féin, has raised $2 million over the past five years.

      Pocket change for what unity will cost.

    27. NewFriendsOldFriends on

      Will they be ready to fund the Irish army as well, once no one is left to actually protect this island?

    28. DatJazzIsBack on

      I’m willing to bet a very high number of Irish Americans voted for trump so they can go to hell

    29. RustyNewWrench on

      Ya know, I don’t really give a fuck what some moron yank wants.

    30. $2m raised over 5 years is hardly anything to base an article like this over. Only 50k in the last 6 months sent over to Belfast. It’d require 100x that to “fund it”.

    31. Professional_Elk_489 on

      I wonder if they offered to triple everyone’s income on the island for 200 years and paid it into escrow would we Unite
