Is Ireland a racist country?

denon

Do you think Ireland is the racist country? Many the foreign people come here in the good times, but did the Irish welcome the foreign man?

This country is not so the good now. So do ye think Irish man embrace the foreigner in good time?

Only because he was forced into it at young age before he could make an free and informed adult decision. Coincidentally that's also his reason for being in the Hitler youth.

I wonder who does his ironing? It must be delicious!

I've been here ten years now. I'd say the Irish wouldn't know proper racism if it hit them in their face. I've met hundreds and hundreds of Irish people over the past 10 years, for work and socially, and have not encountered anything I would deam racist bar the occasional misguided ignorant rumblings of a select few.

The only place it seems, to me, to rear it's ugly head is here on boards from a select few keyboard warriors.

But Irish man do know racism. In England many years ago poster says NO DOGS, NO BLACKS, NO IRISH.

It is not possible for a "country" to be racist, only it's populace, and even then only a percentage of that populace.

Every country has a percentage that will hate various other demographics for various reasons.

This is not rocket science.

So all the country are racist equally? Why so deep south usa very racist? It not a country in itself but why more than rest of usa?

so why the Scandinavian countries least racist?

What??

What Dragan said seemed perfectly clear to me, you've completely distorted his point to non-sensical gibberish. It maybe that I've missed something, could you clarify what exactly all the above means?

I definitely think Irish people have a racist view of foreigners, and it's a sneaky racism too. Even worse than been openly racist, imo

Ivan

Personally, I think the very question "Is Ireland a racist country" very racist in it's own right. I mean, to tar an entire race of people because of the inherent actions and beliefs of a few. Well, it's ironical to say the least.

But to directly answer your question, regardless of how misplaced I feel it might be; I dont think we're racist. I think we're uncomfortable around foreigners alright. Which might sound bizarre but there is history behind alot of the goings-on.

Some peoples uncomfortableness and awkwardness is more obvious or aggressive than others, but I believe it all stems from the same well of fear and mistrust.

...and if you dont like it, you can just GET OUT!

I do agree with this. Its lulz all around if the Irish racist can find someone to agree with them, but if you confront them about their point they either do some serious back-tracking or get defensive and ranty.

We might be racist, last Friday we...

• solved our cream cracker problem
• got rid of all the figgers
• ran the slant eyed mikados out of the place
• gave the coconut kickers coconut cream kickers the boot

Those damned Talifornians were taking all our jobs, let that be a lesson to them :mad:

i wouldn't count myself a racist but what i can't stand is them using bad english/ slang, (was ist da craic)and such like, it sounds german even though its meant to come across as irish slang! Or when they don't agree with you over something and they start roaring to eachother what you can only guess is abuse about you in their language. About you. I don't think many go around and start talking irish infront of others, don't give me the irish care, we don't speak irish but you know what i mean i think itsjust bad manners!

Apart from Bonobo chimps xenophobia is innate in most primates. Who they don't know spook the fvck out of them until they acclimatise.

Racialism is propaganda that plays on xenophobia and messes with peoples heads to prevent the process of acclimatisation. I don't think Ireland is anyways worse than anywhere else in this regard. We aren't an overtly racist society at all really.

The worst societies on the planet in this regard are those where racialism and segregation have been long standing state policies like in the USA and South Africa. Unfortunately the racialist propaganda that spills out of US culture is infecting heads all over the planet.

personally to foreigners faces i think that we appear welcoming etc

but when they are not around theres jokes about the poles and them taking our jobs etc, and everyone has done it at one stage or another.

if a traveller moved in next door to you would you be happy about it? you'd want them gone

ireland is a racist country
