      I’m not Irish or British, but fow what I know I’d put a bit more blame on UK for the troubles. Don’t invade/colonize a country, don’t get troubles.

        The troubles weren’t just Irish people vs colonial oppressors though, there was a ton of sectarian violence between different Irish groups

          If you mean Catholic Irish vs protestant Irish, it was in the end a byproduct of British occupation anyway
