Why is it okay for Ireland to appropriate American culture (Saoirse Ronan, Eamon de Valera, My Bloody Valentine and Loveless, IRA weapons, Charles Parnell) but not okay for Americans to appropriate Irish culture?
As a proud Irishman AND a proud American, I find my Irish countrymen's attitude toward me to be offensive and hypocritical, quite frankly
>appropriating our culture no one cares about that kind of shit here. "Cultural appropriation" is is a very American problem to make up. All we do is laugh at you for wearing head-to-toe green, dyeing your rivers green on paddy's day and getting very sheepish midway through asking a barman for a carbomb

Kek. Aren't the irish supposed to shit on anyone? Stop being such a fag and take the banter. You seem more (faggy) american than irish. This site is a copy of another japanese site and started as a place for anime discussion. Expect the american to take foreign things as theirs, i suppose

If you are not raised in Ireland or have two parents that are raised in Ireland you are not Irish.
Simple as that, Ireland and the US are quite different in many ways and are two different countries. You are born and raised in the US, you are an American.

A very important factor in Irish life is the notion of having thick skin. What you mistake for an offensive discouraging attitude is actually a playful jab at your ego, to make sure you aren't a self-absorbed shallow cunt. When you set yourself up or do something worth mocking its important that we mock, so that you become brave and strong enough to not be a whiney little safespace faggot. A lot of Americans that come here mention us as being ruthless and miserable cunts, but when they leave they learn to appreciate the honesty of soul and the trueness in our friendship youtube.com/watch?v=rV7x6PjHymU

>IRA Weapons top fucking kek
Jason Harris
>Eamon de Valera He was born to Irish and Spanish parents in the US and moved to Ireland when he was two. That'd be like saying Ted Cruz as president would be "appropriating Canadian culture"
>IRA weapons >Using Armalites is appropriating American culture >Using Kalashnikovs is appropriating Russian culture >Using H&Ks is appropriating German culture
This is a bad thread and I feel bad for posting in it.

Nah that's just the kind of dumb memeing that says K'wanza Badawa is Irish but Seán O'Connor is not. Irish is an ethnicity first and foremost, and there are strong ethnic ties between Ireland and its American diaspora hence why everybody's grandparents had a picture of JFK.
