They were

All catholics were looked down upon

It happened but their not black so they deserved it or doesn't count, pick one.

Yet today I don’t have victem status because I’m third or fourth gen and blend in with all the other cis white males.

Of course they were. They were degenerate as fuck and came over pushing their catholic horseshit fown everyone's throats. They drank constantly, committed crimes, and used to have rallies where bishops would come and apocalyptically declare that catholicism would take over America. Of course we fucking hated them.

This. Americans were extremely suspicious of Monarchies.

This all sounds so familiar. Were the Irish and the IRA the Islam and ISIS of their day?

Yes but white people don't hold grudges or teach our children to blame others for our problems

yes, they were.

Yes, the Irish and Italians formed ethnic ghettos, undercut American wages, voted as a bloc for their own particular interests, and were hostile many American customs of life. They also committed drastically more crime than Americans. Which is why letting them immigrate here was a mistake.

Luckily, we didn't have a welfare system back then, so the immigrants who didn't at least earn a living moved back to Europe, so we only kept the more intelligent, less criminal, and higher IQ. Once they intermarried and integrated and dissolved their ghettos, things improved drastically in a way that simply cannot happen for Mestizos and Blacks.

Of course everyone uses Irish immigration as a fucking excuse. IRISH IMMIGRATION WAS FUCKING HORRIBLE WATCH GANGS OF NEW YORK WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE REPEATED THAT NONSENSE IN THE TURN OF THE CENTURY SURGE

Funny how these days most of the monarchies for white people are not at all Roman Catholic: Scandinavia, Britain, the Netherlands...

...

yeah, by kikes too

Oh, the Irish shouldn’t be allowed to breed.
We already have more drunkards than we need.
They’re all just lazy slobs.
Who wanna take away our jobs.
And when you cut their fingers whiskey’s all they bleed.

>Irish slavery
>white slavery

Yes, even today tons of our old anti-irish anti-ginger propaganda is stilp floating around.

People who remember being an Irish immigrant in the 1930s and the era of "no Irish need apply" and being treated as lower than niggers literally felt spiritually and culturally validated when only 30 years later a Catholic Irishman was allowed to marry into american 'royalty' and stand for President.
The Kennedy family is the quintessentially Irish american story: They made their wealth by hook or crook through guile and racketeering - some of the only industry Irish were allowed to thrive in at the time. And yet they rose into the company of powerful New York and New England 'old money' and JFK even married into some of the oldest and most wealthy American 'royalty' there was - A massive cultural event in all honesty. It was the old guard finally admitting that Irish Catholics were 'good enough' to join the club.
The Kennedy assassination was extremely devastating for the whole Irish community and they showed serious loyalty ever since.

There were even british slaves. English parlimentarians and Scottish covenanters who where captured where shipped to jamaica regularly.

Yeah, they were new comes and had to be bullied. We would take Irish new comers off boats, hand them weapons and a uniform and send them to die for the Union army. Little did they know that their distant relatives had made their way south long ago.
We had Irish killing Irish in different colored clothes.

The Irish Brigade from New York and the Georgia Irish Regiment directly fought each other, harp as their standard, at the battle of Fredericksburg.

The Irish that went to America were essentially British slaves at the time as Ireland was in the UK and controlled from England till after WWI.

yeah they were hated.

most recently the vietnamese got it the worst of anyone however

The Irish were called White Niggers.
Italians were seen as half niggers.

go watch gangs of new york. it's a major redpill on irish

I'm lucky my Italian family came here on an invite to work so we had jobs when we arrived. They saw us like mexicans. Difference is we learned how to speak English and appreciated being here. 3 generations later, we are mostly upstanding members of society.

If you can find a non-photoshop, non-hollywood sign of discrimination, and then two more I will actually believe this is true. Until then it's kike's >>implying all day

Hmm...if only there were countries where they wouldn’t be discriminated against for being irish or italian.

Wtf does that have to do with anything?

But the Irish were being discriminated against that's why they had to leave. Didn't get independence till 1920s.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Patrick's_Battalion?wprov=sfla1

They were forced to forget their language, their religion, and still treated like dogs.

So then, they should be exceptionally grateful that we took them in, instead of allowing them to starve in the streets of ireland?

Yeah, we were now gibs me dem reparations. We helped during the civil war. Gibs me dat now!

Irish dindu nutin wrong

The Italians were the original illegal aliens. WOP means "WithOut Papers". It was a tiny bit about race, but much more about them being Catholic. All Catholics were viewed with suspicion as possible foreign agents. That they might be more loyal to a fag in white robe than America.

Meanwhile Jews were allowed to infest every sector of our society...

To add: Irish in Tennessee wanted so desperately to fit in with their Southern counterparts that they joined the fight, as well, though they had no real stake in it.

Slave owners used to breed young Irish girls with black men. The British put a stop to it because it cut into the slave trade profits.

>took em in and put em straight into your civil war

My grandads brother moved to USA from Ireland first thing they did was put him into the army and send him to Korea. He got back though.

Irishmen were murdered by the Brits and lynched by Protestants in the US just google it

Irish Catholics, yes. The Anglo-Irish are very sneaky, we identify with whatever suits us best at the moment.
