Will it ever Unite? Could the south afford it? Would you prefer a United Ireland?

As for Northfags, who you voting for? Nationalist or Loyalist?

funny as people might find it, I dunno why people think the potato famine triggers irish people. Nobody here gives a fuck.
If you want to trigger people in the south remind them what a fucking poorly executed mess the Easter Rising was.

>but anon, YOU'RE not in Ireland

Tiocfaidh ár lá etc

That said, they need to let the language fucking die.
>>
>>57452014
Do you think the Irish just didn't have any kind of agriculture until the 1500s? You realize the potato is indigenous to the Americas, right?

I wouldn't mind a united Ireland, but only if it were a monarchy. Since Ireland is a republic I think it's best that Northern Ireland stay British.

Irish people love their rebels and don't get me wrong there has been some pretty based bantsy antics from them in history but good fuck are some of the big events overplayed.

>>57452253
North a shit, but is okay if you live in one of the increasingly few nice bits. Parties are all morons though, SDLP seems to be getting their shit together but aren't relevant enough to matter.

>>57452326
Who would be King?


As for NI, Protestant Unionist culture is fucking dying a slow death. More and more people criticizing the orange order and the 11th and 12th, Flag Protests showing Protestant Unionists off as thugs and chavs, Irish history, culture and identity on the rise...I dunno lads, it could happen.

Not that there'll be a referendum any time soon.

Then who will the Irish fight?

Will Ireland ever be Ireland if they're not at each other's throats over something utterly inconsequential?

I am from NI and can say that Britain thinks we are a burden and the ROI cannot afford to take us, NI is a huge money sink.

>>57452652
The UDA or UVF will try and be what the IRA were but that won't work because protestants and loyalists aren't oppressed like catholics and nationalists were, they're just salty that their popularity is dwindling and that nobody really likes them. Fighting will be the same.
>>
>>57452725
The republic's economy is improving, so long as nobody fucks it up they could possibly afford us in the future. For now though yeah we're the skin tag of the British Isles.

>>57452768
I will be dead or at least retired by the time that happens, I will ride it out on the coast of England and not get involved in the bullshit that will come with unification.

I love Ireland and Irish history so I'd be all for it. Always identified as Irish and have an Irish passport and everything.

As faggy as it sounds I'm somewhat proud of being Irish and want to make northern Ireland a less shitty place so I'm hanging around for now. If both my knees are intact by the time I retire I'll take that as a sign that the peace process worked >>57452899
Yeah loyalist paramilitaries have always been irrelevant shitters

Those days are long gone for me, the Army really needs to rethink its PT if they want to maintain troops.

Finally, someone gets it. The food was exported to mainland Britain to feed their ever growing population.

Hey look an actual paddy in the wild. What you reckon down there, you guys give a fuck about the north?
>>
>>57453053
>>57452055
it was just banter and the irish couldn't handle it, same as always
>>
>>57453083
It has the worst population ever.
>>
>>57453142
Oh I didn't mean what do you think of the people-most people here are the worst. But is there want for unification in the south?
>>
>>57453189
Most people would support it I think, as long as there isn't too much discussion about the economic and security effects
>>
>>57453189
Oh. Not a chance, it would destroy our ever growing economy. Not to mention a large number of people may become violent. Maybe in a few years, when the Irish outbread the loyalists then there may be a chance.
>>
>>57453278
Yeah, I know your economy is back on its feet but nowhere near ready to take us.

The infuriating thing is that if unification happened the loyalists would likely adopt the behaviour they condemn every day because it was done by nationalists. Fucking christ I hate this place.
>>
>>57453356
Wouldn't the loyalists want to move to the country they're loyal to?
>>
>>57453356
Come down south. Better pay, nicer people.
I remember going to asda in Strabane and there was this ""British"" giving death stares to me because of the southern reg. I wonder why they were so close to the border.
>>
>>57453407
Noooooo, absolutely not. They'd scream and cry about oppression and start hurting people and rioting. They are the easiest triggered people alive,did you hear about the flag protests?


>>57453442
I've considered it. I hope to work in mental health though and it's starting to gain attention here and jobs are predicted to start cropping up. But at the same time...money.

See. Ireland has all these lovely sayings while if you ask for Northern irelands motto it's "NO SURRENDER" fucking God this is a country of plebs

>>57453630
Are you near Belfast by the way? Do you know if there's still protests going on over the fleg?
>>
>>57453673
No but I can answer that.
Protests yes, but numbers have dwindled massively. Most weekends there is one somewhere. On St paddy's day they gathered in force and police wouldn't let anyone near city hall wearing anything too Irish in case the protesters got triggered and started something.
