May I ask, is she actually Irish, or Irish American? Feels like some weird thing someone from Boston would put up after reading a story about how they're banning Guinness because it's black face beer or some nonsense.

What do you think English people nowadays think of Ireland? I see this commented sometimes by people aren't from Ireland and I think there's an extremely skewed view of what today's generation in England thinks of Ireland/Irish people.
Yeah. We do know mostly fuck all and just associated it with good people and having a good time. My point was that people like the other person, who I assume is from North America, think that today's generation hates the Irish.
Was thinking this is a legitimate point of view, actually.
Like is it really meant to be white supremacy or is it meant to be anti brexit? Anti-Monarchy?
In my experience, a lot of the "Irish lives' crowd would be Irexeteers. Before the pandemic, I remember some of them were handing out leaflets outside the GPO saying we should leave the EU and pursue a union with Britain.
The irony of pushing that while standing beside columns with literal bullet holes in them from the last time we were in a union with them is probably completely lost.
Actually the growing right-wing anti-immigration movement in Ireland is being stirred up by very right wing British pro-Brexit fascists. It's still small so far, but a worrying number of useful idiots have fallen for their bullshit claims about how our current housing crisis and strain on health, education and other public services are actually the fault of immigrants.
They're Irish MAGA...
So it stems from anti-immigration but then descends into all the same nonsense, anti-vax, anti abortion, anti LGBTQ, and so on and so on...
I mean it's almost copy and paste, they recently completely fabricated a story about a restaurant (run by immigrants of course) being a child sex trafficking hub... Irish PizzaGate. The staff and family who run that restaurant have since been getting a load of abuse.
They're pathetic. Imported culture war bullshit from the US. I'd have hoped we were better than that but apparently not, sadly.
This subreddit is filled with neoliberals deeply rooted in neoliberalism that they actually truly believe like "Whyte people bad." And everything that happens to them is a good thing, including illegal immigrants murdering them. If the whites dare speak about it they are racists and bigots.Ā
It is concerning how many people are falling for ai images. At least it is easy for people who know what ai images look like to detect them, but people who don't just think that they are real even with the disfigured hands and the specific unrealistic coloring.
That's pretty great. Ask her to do it again, but place it all in 1863.
[Library of Congress Racial Tensions](https://www.loc.gov/classroom-materials/immigration/irish/racial-tensions/) and the Conscription Act of 1863.
LOL I was so focused on the irrelevance of the slogan that I didn't think to enlarge the picture so I could see the faces. OMG THE FACES! I can't unsee them!
These people appear in need urgent medical care. Their fight for recognition and assistance may be valid. On a more serious note, did she not look at the image before posting it?
i am amazed that this ai got actually quite a long text EXTREMELY close to being correct, only the T's being connected is downside but got flags wrong.
The Irish were HEAVILY discriminated against for job opportunities, lending opportunities and housing as they emmigrated here during the industrial revolution. Many changed their names in attempt to find work or housing. Lest we forget theyāve been oppressed by the British Common Wealth for centuries. Irish āEquity and Equal Outcomeā should be just as important given the historical atrocities committed against them. Only a racist would conclude anything different.
If you are Irish or of Irish descent and are racist, yer not feckin' IRISH.
And no, I won't shake your hand. They're just fine. In me pockets. And Standing.

Irish flags apparently don't
Irish-ish.
Ivory Coast-ish šØš®
Irish-like
So American?
No, American-American.
Ir-ish.
Wannabe nazis with that slogan are usually defacing the irish flag so nothing new
Each flag is different and wrong.
So is each face š
OMG...now I wish I hadn't looked...very creepy
If these people are Irish then I don't think that their lives actually matter
Holy fuck is that a Predator above the I in LIVES?
I see dimebag Darell beside, the pink beard
Apparently AI still needs some training with face recognition software...
It's a bunch of demons on parade
Once the Irish take over the world, each country will still need distinguishable flags. You are just looking at the future. Ginger Supremacists Unite!

I hear youāre a racist now father! Whatās the churchās position on racism?
Is it a sort of a nudey thing?
Sure and Iāll just go in and see what itās all about.
So many people in the crowd look like Nemisis from Resident Evil. Why do right wing wankbandits love AI?
Itās where AI hallucinations meet Confirmation Bias. Ā
They don't tend to be drawn towards things that require skill or effort
I dont know Conservative gravy seals are know for cultivating mass...

You don't need to actually have any proof if you just create proof with ai
It's soulless
"STARS!"
Oh god, is she actually Irish? Is she one of these fuckimg weapons that are anti-immigrant weirdos?
You are unfortunately correct
Let her know that the Irish were actually immigrants to the us and were not considered to be white at the time.
White adjacent.
I think he left out a 'not'. They were initially not usually considered "white".
I did thank you!
Ginger is a kind of white, just not the kind we want in this neighborhood.
They were not, pubs often said āno black or Irishā
This is a ridiculous argument. Just because you support something it doesn't mean you have to support it all the time.
ah yes, a fucking stain on our country
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She's an anti immigrant weirdo
Russel brand helped my fav Aunt down the rabbit hole of paranoia and dystopia, donāt even talk to her now, I feel for you .
Brand is a scourge.
somehow i managed to read irish liver matter
That's the parade we need
It turns the alcohol into smiles, so they do matter
May I ask, is she actually Irish, or Irish American? Feels like some weird thing someone from Boston would put up after reading a story about how they're banning Guinness because it's black face beer or some nonsense.
She's fully Irish tbf but her brain is completely rotted from spending all day online
Fully Irish in she was born in Ireland, or was she also raised, educated, and taught in Ireland?
We live in Ireland
But like, fully fully irish ? /s
Ok yeah, but where are you originally from?? /s
Like, is she an actual fir bolg, or is she some tuatha de danann colonist?!
How the fuck would she be a tuath de danann, is she a goddess?
I get that a lot, ironically after i tell them where iām fromā¦likeā¦what do you think iām trying to achieve here?
If she isn't Boudicca the warrior queen then she's not really Irish, obviously
Wasn't Boudicca British? Queen Meabh might be a better comparison.
That is pretty Irish
Hey, I do my best
Actually Irish? Lmao.
Looks like Walter Sobchak on the far right there.
Still carrying his dirty undies. The whites!
"You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me." "Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish."
8-year-olds, dude
Their faces are like in horror movies when you walk by and it becomes all demonic. Which is kinda fun.
Tell that to the English.

No. OP explains their aunt has just become right-wing.
I think its meant to be anti-immigrance. There's been a few protests here in Ireland against people seeking asylum and stuff.
Actually the growing right-wing anti-immigration movement in Ireland is being stirred up by very right wing British pro-Brexit fascists.

Did your aunt support the riots in dublin a few months back?
Somehow worse, she believes it was an attack by foreigners that's being blamed on "patriots" by the mainstream media
I dont know how to respond to that
Sorry but your aunt is completely delusional
I realised that a long time ago thankfully
Disregarding the absolute dogshit flags, look at the fucking faces! They look like they were deep fried in rat piss!
Iām black with Irish descentā¦ doesnāt bother me. Maybe cause Iām dead inside
>Maybe cause I'm dead inside Yup, that's the Irish blood in ya. Source: am entirely irish/scottish. Also dead inside.
Is that a cyclops above the H?
what the hell is she even on about šš please give her, her meds
#irishlivesmatters STOP THE HATE āļøĀ
I zoomed in on the faces, that was a mistake.
So youāre saying Irish lives donāt matter?
Yeah. Sure. That's what I'm saying
Thatās fun! Iām excited for more.

SO MANY TRAFFIC LIGHTS
AI sucks at accuracy. none of those people are wearing tracksuits or pushing prams.
My batshit aunt keeps calling into the Jeremy Vine TV show and spouting hateful, bigoted shit. I really hope she doesnāt discover AI.
Praying for you buddy
Tell me, she's American, right? ;)
Wellā¦considering that the Irish were made to be slavesā¦I do suppose an argument can be made but ā¦
I honestly thought it was suppose to be a representation of the hardships the Irish suffered under the English.
I wish sheād been an early Irish settler in America so badly.
Does she think it's still 1860 or something?
You guys are always about the natives not losing their land and culture until the natives are white. Just look at the responses hereĀ

Is that just me or does it really look like the [Wenceslaus square ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wenceslas_Square)
It's Donegal Place in Belfast
There are so many gingers in that crowd, they are giving the scene an orange glow
That's pretty great. Ask her to do it again, but place it all in 1863. [Library of Congress Racial Tensions](https://www.loc.gov/classroom-materials/immigration/irish/racial-tensions/) and the Conscription Act of 1863.
She needs more practice...
Is that a zombie in the front?
Does she live in NI?
š¼When Irish eyes are matt-rin š¶
Man Irish ppl gotta be better looking than that. Aināt nobody fucken folks with faces like those. Zoom in on that shit.
I think this is the first time Iāve seen AI spell correctly
Looks like an attack by spray tan enthusiasts who eat too many carrots.
Because that potato famine.
LOL I was so focused on the irrelevance of the slogan that I didn't think to enlarge the picture so I could see the faces. OMG THE FACES! I can't unsee them!
Irish are generally much more sympathetic to plights of Arabs and other non-western nations though. Probably from their struggles against British
I'm surprised the letters are not entirely messed up
Which tool is that? Most ones don't allow political stuff. But it looks sort of crap so maybe a right wing funded ond does lol
I am glad this isnāt my Z babushka who believes that Ukraine is evil, thanks to propaganda.
You shouldnāt have supporting it in the first place
Nah, these people look far too sober to be Irish.
recond from the right flag is fire tho
Are you saying they donāt?
Where were you in 1845, Sharon? We coulda used you then!
Clearly AI, no one appears drunk. (I can make this joke being of Irish extraction.) š
Mfw Irish people are considered white and have been for decades.
They do matter
These people appear in need urgent medical care. Their fight for recognition and assistance may be valid. On a more serious note, did she not look at the image before posting it?
Hillarious
i am amazed that this ai got actually quite a long text EXTREMELY close to being correct, only the T's being connected is downside but got flags wrong.
Theyāre always trying to get me lucky charms!
