    "RTE has too many stories on US news!"

    *Half the posts in the thread go on to express strong opinions on American politics*

    I must admit to having a tinge of embarrassment for posters who project their own fantasies when they find themselves lacking the faculty of making a suitable counterpoint.

    This is actually a stupid take if you stop and think about it. People are forced to argue for or against American centric opinions due to American politics being forced upon us. It's completely inline with criticism of Ireland becoming too Americanized.

    “The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone else. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill--he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it.”- ― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
