I wonder why people might feel compelled to honor Irish immigrants specifically, surely it is just because people are being mean to those poor British people from that tiny backwater island.
Do you know your history about how Britain starved Ireland during the “””””potato famine””””?
Just to increase your knowledge, the official term is not the famine, but the great hunger. Famine means a lack of food. There was sufficient food for all, but it was crops from wealthy British landowners, sold overseas for profit. The Irish went hungry as the potato croo failed and it was their staple food.
I have actually visited every country that is part of my dna map, except Sweden. Who are you to call someone ignorant? You must have a really high opinion of yourself.

History, it makes you understand things!

Oh, I do. I’m about 1/4 Irish. One of my favorite songs is “Famine”, by Sinead O’Connor. I’m also part British, so I feel guilty when I hear it, too.
I have no idea why I was downvoted for saying I’m Irish and British by dna.
Because the rest of the world is fed up of Americans claiming they are xyz nationality when in reality
You’re just an ignorant American who has nationality dysphoria.
Maybe if you stand in a garage you can convince yourself you’re a car? Try drinking only petrol coloured beverages to really convince yourself.

No, I just have a really low opinion of Americans.
