Seriously, the bullying against Irish members of this community is getting way out of hand, especially since the Irish are some of the biggest contributors and most involved in this board. Its not just "memes" or "banter", its vicious attacking and regardless of intentions it does demean people and hurt feelings. I can't say I'm the only Irish man who finds it hard to take pride in his own country after having years of constant and needless attacks.

Like when its not just banter, when a meme is repeated over and over again, repeated systematically, it eventually becomes a truth irregardless of the intentions in repeating it. And that isn't just jokes any more then, then its harmful!
Would you call an Irish man a "potatonigger" to his face? Would you say to a kind, peaceful and hard working salt of the earth Irish man that they are a "fucking whiskeyfag"? Would you quote him just saying " >be Irish >starve because muh potaoes"? Are you starting to feel ashamed now? You fucking degenerate?
