Hot take: people (even ostensibly right wing ones) who think that playing video games cause school shootings and watching porn causes rape are just towing the Boasian line which holds that behaviour is socially conditioned.

Are the genetics of 2018 Irish in Ireland that different from 1998 or 1918 Irish in Ireland? Because the sexual, social, religious, and politcal behavior is pretty different, tragically so.

it's weird because for a while, before I really started following politics, I thought that Ireland is a conservative country or some shit like that - frankly, modern Ireland is goddamn pathetic like the rest of western europe

Ireland kind of reminds me of Canada. A big part of Canada's self image is being not-America. Somehow Trudeau the Elder convinced Canadians that America was really conservative, so Canada could differentiate itself by being super Liberal.

Of course the result was Canadians just became Hyper-Americas. I suspect Ireland took a similar trajectory with its relationship to Britain.
