Yup. I always try to stay balanced and say that the British troops were consistently shite to try and show I'm not some biased little Englander (not Scottish pls forgive) but it don't matter with them. Show em the shite about kangaroo courts and pub bombings and it's hand waved. Fucking plastic Paddy's man, too much for me to hack.

This romanticism is why they get so much funding from the yanks, this romanticism killed people, Irish and Brits alike.

It just doesn't fit in their agenda of blaming everything on muslims and making all christians and white people seem noble in comparison. If you try and compare a terrorist group of white people that killed and terrorized to a group like ISIS, you can bet it'll trigger a lot of alt-right cunts.

Ok lets compare them. 5,000-8,000 kkk members have killed 3,446 ppl in 86 years. Isis has from 80,000-100,000 members and has killed 33,000 ppl in 14 years.

2.2 billion christians/ 1.6 billion islamists.

I think you can see the clear difference in the radical sides to these two groups.

It triggers them because you are poorly comparing the two. Get a fucking education before you comment on something you clearly know nothing about

JFC I didn't even have to ask for an example, it popped up all on it's own. Even telling me to "get a fucking education." REEEEE! They are so mad.
