happyhippy posted:They were 'irish' as in a few generations of english born there since taking the place over, they sent over people from England to live and control it. The famine happened in the 1840s, and the big shakeup of the southern Irish gentry happened hundreds of years before in the late 1500s, under Mary and Elizabeth I (and James, for the north), others traced their Irish roots back to the Normans, in the 1200s(and still others were Irish nobles who'd made accommodation with the invaders, or originally Norse, or Scots, or part of other waves of invasion and conquest). In my view, if your family has lived somewhere for multiple centuries, you're from there. There was a cultural distinction between aristocrats and non aristocrats. Between dissenting Protestants, establishment Protestants and Catholics. Between the coastal industrialising cities and the rural hinterlands. But none of those groups were English. To call them English reduces Ireland.

Yeah not sure what they're trying to do here unless you're in some weird american style residents association which you (or your landlord) have signed up to. They have no power to dole out fines or issue notices if not.

I assume the idea is they are threatening to go to the cops or landlords with a bunch of info they've scrounged up to try and pin complaints on you.

sebzilla posted:Some etymology/history person please tell me why Iberia, Siberia, Liberia and Hibernia (sort of) are so similarly named. Liberia was named by classicists in the 19th century so definitely Rome there. I think the suffix just means 'area of/land' tbh. Liberia is Freeland.

Because it was founded by people who wanted to send free black people there because they thought there could never be racial equality in the US, which is why the capital is named after us president james monroe.

And then the Americo-Liberians immediately set themselves up as a settler colonial society with an African servant caste.

I like the version that was turned into a proper complex song although you do have to adjust some of the lines because apparently yon church man didn't know how meter worked. Also the long version of solidarity forever is very good too I just keep forgetting the verse order, same problem as learning the major general's song. Also also, battle cry of freedom is fun if you mentally substitute the union for the cooler kind of union. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Jul 16, 2022 |

Reporting it as a malicious communication it is. Nice to be able to use my white privilege in a productive manner for a change. I was also wondering if there were any RIPA implications, but I guess if they're random weirdos it doesn't really count. The whole anonymous email address and lack of actual contact details is skeevy as gently caress, as I shall be claiming to my local coppers.
