Yeah supporting IRA (sympatizers) is based /s

Supporting Sinn Fein is absolutely based, I love a good DemSoc party. As for the IRA, Republican paramilitaries were the least civilian-murder-happy of the sides in the Troubles, so while I wouldn't express support for them, I'm also not going to automatically reach for condemnation for a paramilitary group that began in legitimate oppression and ended with good-faith peace negotiations.

The troubles sucked and people shouldnt be divided like that, hope we can agree on that.

There’s one group responsible for the division, and it ain’t the irish.
