@Xolgy18083 @Lewis_Brackpool No. And they spit blood at the idea of a separate Northern Ireland identity.

@MidnightEffect_ The clip where he tells the Indian it’s insulting that he likes him. Because he’s a wasp. And compares it to uglies looking at the Mona Lisa.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@CiarnFerg @RawWarBro @Cal_III Agree. But they would also call themselves South Africans.

And Northern irelanders are Britons. In the same way.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@JohnSmithbw1z @Number10cat @RupertLowe10 Ulster Scots are a real people, ethnically British. Not Irish.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@Number10cat @RupertLowe10 Northern irelanders are distinct ethnically from the Irish.

As they descend form lowland Scots and English Protestants.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@RupertLowe10 Thank you Rupert. From Ulster.
God bless 🇬🇧

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@James17963382 @R_J_Shaw Northern irelanders are distinct from the southern Irish. Different tribes.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@Xolgy18083 @Lewis_Brackpool Northern Ireland is distinct. The correct name for them is Ulster-Scots.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@RawWarBro @Cal_III It’s more like referring to Boers as South African.

Means the same thing.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@Cal_III Finally, someone sticking up for Northern Ireland 🇬🇧

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@TheEvilGenius3 @Cal_III But the people of Northern Ireland are ethnically British - Ulster Scots.

Different from the southern Irish

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@RawWarBro @Cal_III The correct term is Ulster-Scots.

But you can refer to them as Northern Irish. That’s where they live.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@Number10cat @Cal_III Northern Irelanders (correct name Ulster Scots) are native to northern Britain. Lowland Scotland and English Marches. Northumbria etc.

Scandalously called Irish in popular culture.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@NotesfromNorth @Hylandpaddy98 @cattycow384 @ScotForUnity Lowlanders are largely Germanic. So Germanic that highlanders called them “sassenach” meaning Englishmen.

@45johnferguson @CiarnFerg @fosandair The inhabitants of Galloway were Britons. Gaelic was an adopted language for them. Around the 10th century. Then died off in the 14th.

Sorry to break it to you. But they were not Gaels.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@oisi67737 @CiarnFerg @fosandair English was the language of the Galloway elites and some settlements. Before Gaelic arrived.

Is exactly the point I was making.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@CiarnFerg @fosandair No, the people were racial Britons primarily with large Anglo input.

I include Anglo and not Gaelic because I know there was large English settlement in Galloway.

The Gaels never settled Galloway or broader SW Scotland. So they can’t be Gaels.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@oisi67737 @CiarnFerg @fosandair Just wrong.

English was spoken in Galloway before Gaelic.

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@WASPZoomer I will forever mourn the loss of White Anglo America.

The men of the Alamo. 🇺🇸

[Door Hinge @DoorHinge167]

@oisi67737 @CiarnFerg @fosandair The native language was Cumbric (ancient British), then English.

Gaelic, a newcomer, didn’t arrive until around the 10th century.

English resumed dominance again in the 15th century. Until now

Gaelic was an in between language, the least native and died off.
