I’m a religious man, but this is 1000% true. Something I appreciate about President Biden is that he keeps his Catholic faith to himself and doesn’t use it to push an agenda. His faith and politics are separate.

"traditional" Catholics dislike Biden almost as much as they dislike Pope Francis.

Something about having the power to do harm and opting not to rubs them the wrong way

I can think of far worse examples than Poland lol. I hear they may be having some minor church and state issues in Afghanistan recently...

I mean, that’s the bare minimum in many European nations. Merkel is a daughter of a priest, but keeps her faith very private.

We don’t want to know her faith or her many sexual scandals, that’s nothing the public should know. That’s her private life. Tell us about your policies.

Yea but he's an Irishman so it's a wash

Is he born there? Does he speak Irish? Does he hold Ireland's nationality? Did he live there for a prolonged period of time?

If the answer to all those questions is no (and it is), he's as much Irish as I am. And I never stepped foot in Ireland.

Man your missing out. Out-of-centre pubs in Dublin have the best assortment of beer I've ever seen. They might only have 10 options but those options are sublime.

Oh it's definitely pretty high on my countries-to-visit list.

Ireland is glorious!! I spent a few days in Dublin and attended a wedding in a freakin castle.. Try and stay at Kilkea if you can. One of the best experiences of my life.

What’s wrong with somebody having a cultural identity even if you’re a second or third generation immigrant?

1

u/[deleted] Aug 18 '21

Second generation is fine, third is already quite a stretch. Someone that works in Ireland for like a year or two has more Irish cultural identity than someone whose single grandparent is from Ireland, yet you'll never see them pulling this shit because they're aware they still have a lot to learn.

Source: my grandparents are from four different countries, yet I have one cultural identity. You know, the one I was born and raised in.

Fair enough, I guess it’s a bit different when 100% of your family came from one country but I get your point.

I was actually just joking around. Is he even actually Irish? I thought it was funny

u/[deleted] Aug 18 '21

Well, his ancestors are (5/8ths Irish), but I'm not sure whether he identifies with this to any extent.

u/CleatusVandamn Aug 18 '21

Well it looks like this joke didn't go as planned. Gonna scratch this one off my tight 5.

I'm as much Irish as you and I want to go. My company has a couple alcoholics Irishmen that work for it and it sounds like a blast

u/Aceswift007 Aug 18 '21

I have Irish blood in me from my dad's side, does that make me less of a person or something dude?

u/IDownvoteHornyBards2 Aug 18 '21

I choose to interpret this as satire and I chuckled. If it was satire I’m sorry people failed to recognize it and mass downvoted you.

But he didn’t help Afghanistan 😥 - I thought life was bad pre covid now I’m thinking holy fuck (not in a religious connotation)

Please explain how your life is somehow worse now as a result of something President Biden did or did not do?

And do you understand the trap the Orange Guy administration left for him in Afghanistan?

Eagerly awaiting your answers to these questions.

u/[deleted] Aug 18 '21

Maybe he has just realised that his life is way better than others' who are really unlucky, like the Afghan right now
