“Largest European genocide in history.”

Largest European genocide in history.

Still no source for this.

What word would you use for the wiping out of 90% of the population lol

Not genocide because it doesnt meet the definitions.

Keep digging holes for yourself.

You made the claim:

Largest European Genocide in history

Stop dancing around it and prove your claim.

Edit: Im done with you. This is a waste of time. We both know you cant prove your claim and you’re just going to reply with some other nonsense.

Largest European genocide in history.

You said it was the largest genocide in European history. I asked you to prove that and you didnt. Your source doesn’t even mention genocide.

They wiped out 90% of the population you plank

Your source doesnt say that either. The part you yourself highlighted says:

steppe-related ancestry and was associated with the replacement of approximately 90% of Britain’s gene pool within a few hundred years.

Genetic replacement doesn’t mean genocide you plank. And it doesnt mean “ThEy WiPeD tHeM oUt!!!” either. That’s why genocide isn’t mentioned anywhere in the article you sourced.

The only plank here is you. You’ve made it very clear that you don’t actually know what genocide means. Genocide has a specific definition. So why don’t you look up what that is before you make a fool of yourself any further?

Doesnt say genocide anywhere. And it doesnt say it was larger than the holocaust either.

Congrats. You disproved yourself.

Cold War submarine types

My favourite is the Echo II because of the cool pop up angled launchers.

Largest European genocide in history.

Then provide a source that shows that the genocide you made up by the Beaker Empire you made up was larger than the holocaust.

Colonised by the fictional Beaker Empire that you made up?

So?

Except it isnt an historic fact because the Beakers didnt “wipe them out”. They were absorbed into Beaker culture over hundreds of years due to migration.

And Beaker is a cultural phenomenon, not a race of people. Those Beaker people on the island of Ireland were not necessarily genetically related to those on the continent.

And even if they did wipe them out, the Beakers were not a single unified people under one flag and one leader like the Brits. Why would people living far off on an island off the west coast of Europe have anything to do with the actions of people on the continent just because they make similiar pottery?

Your comparison is ridiculous.

You’re just being facetious again because you haven’t a clue.

Visiting officials are third parties. The threats against them are not threats Ireland faces.

Why would Ireland spend massive amounts of money on a military budget just to provide temporary security for some meetings when those expensive military assets would no longer be required once the meetings are over?

There is no credible threat because Ireland is an island on the west coast of Europe and there are no hostile countries in range that have the logistical capability to mount an amphibious assault at this distance.

Whats your point?

32% of the population of Northern Ireland identify as British only, not Irish, and they are openly hostile to anything even remotly relating to Irishness to the point that they actively campaign against things like the use of the Irish language in public spaces because they see it as a threat.

Those people only exist in Northern Ireland because they are descendants of British colonists as a direct result of British Imperialism (which is the topic that kicked off the comment thread here) resulting in the Plantations of Ulster, the Protestant Ascendency and the displacement and discrimination of Irish people and targeted destruction of the Irish language and culture.

And you think talking about that is bigotry?

EDIT: Also, what do you mean Irish “Brit bashing” in this scenario? Theres no indication that this post was made by an Irish person and theres loads of comments from other nationalities in this thread, but the only one you decided to engage with was a comment that mentioned that Britian conquered Ireland? Why are you ignoring everyone else? Why are you only responding to comments relating to Ireland? Sounds to me like you have a bit of bigotry yourself.

The Irish Defence Forces is mainly tailored for internal security against paramilitary organisations like IRA groups or loyalist groups like the UVF. Thats what its for.

Ireland is not concerned about the threats facing NATO countries. And there is no credible threat of invasion from anywhere.

Bigotry? Have you seen the bigotry that goes on in Northern Ireland in July every single year?

This is nothing compared to that.

From who?

I see NATO assests being deployed to protect NATO leaders against threats from NATO enemies.

So whats your point? The UK is doing this in its own interest, not in Ireland’s interest.

Tell them that. Because we’ve been trying to explain that to them for a long time.

Exactly.

Celts didnt “conquer” the Beaker’s.

Beaker people are part of the ancestry that developed into Celts.
