I heard that Ireland has its own language and ethnic group.
So Ireland was colonised by the UK the same way Korea was colonised by Japan.
How come Korea rejected Japanese language and managed to restore it's identity?
How come Ireland culturally submits to its English masters?
No shame or pride?

Ireland is still ruled by the Anglo-Irish.
English were more powerful than the tiny dicked chink islanders. You should know, Mr. English Teacher.
So upper class Irish descend from the English?
Are they aware of this?
They're Irish. Concept of culture is foreign to them.
Japan colonised Korea for a few decades. Ireland was colonised by England for centuries.
Yes they cry about it constantly.

Barely anybody speaks Japanese outside of Japan.
English is the world's common tongue.
I don't think it's any real surprise that we stuck with English instead of going back to tradition, it was just more beneficial that way.
They've been occupied for way longer than you occupied Korea.
This
4 decades for Korea
4 centuries for Ireland
wtf i hate Britain now
The failure of the Irish nationalists. Once Irish no longer became a widely spoken language, they should have reformed Irish and changed all media and education into this new 'modern Irish', and English should have been socially shunned expect for business with foreigners.
Instead they didn't do this and now their window of opportunity is gone as English is the globalist language. Unless of course they somehow manage to cut themselves off from the EU and promote nationalism.
I think we were under British rule for a little bit longer than the Koreans were under yours mate.
A good number of people still speak Irish and that number is growing. Most official government-related things are in both Irish and English and so are our road signs.
Speaking English has helped us a great deal too. We have a highly educated and skilled workforce that speaks the same language as most of the worlds biggest companies.
Good man yourself
You occupied korea only for 30 years while brits occupied irish for 500 years
Sweet film, but it's unrealistic as fuck.

Ireland was ruled over in part for a lot longer than Korea, and also in whole. Odd bit is that the part that was ruled over by Brits long enough to get called West Brits, the Pale, is now the capital bit of ROI while the part that spent the longest fighting against Brits, Ulster, is part of the UK.
There's a real split in Ireland. I'm Irish but with a London accent and you notice it a lot.
Protestants will want to fuck you, Catholics might want to glass you. In the Republic, the culture is almost consciously opposed to elements of English culture, like attitudes on where and how to socialise, and a big effort is made to preserve Irish and teach Irish literature (which, the one's ironically written in English, are world famous).
I don't think the Brits are all that bad, and their feelings to the Irish are much less strong than the feelings people have towards them here. The Irish have a bad habit of not being able to separate history from the present, but Northern Ireland is sort of a geographical reminder of what we lost as a people.
8 centuries actually.
>the culture is almost consciously opposed to elements of English culture, like attitudes on where and how to socialise
Nope.
I meant whole Ireland, not just a part.
>London accent
