  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

Can anyone enlighten me on why they picked on Irish immigrants? Did blues get coopted by Irish historically?

The Irish today are some of the most respectable people against colonization.

the irish are, irish-americans were not. american history has MANY examples of americans with irish descent (as well as irish immigrants themselves) perpetuating "anglo" style colonization; the book "the great arizona orphan abduction" details a lot of it (and it's especially fascinating since it happened at the same time as nina).
