      It’s not about “nuance” it’s about how “consent” can’t exist for an occupied people.

        Exactly what I’m talking about. You remove all nuance from the situation to boil it down into something simple, a black and white situation so you can take an absolutist position. Because that’s easier for you to understand.

        Calling modern day Ireland occupied, is just tragically misinformed, and jigonistic. and your early comments also show a lack of understanding of Irish history as well.
