The extreme if influential fringe of the British Unionist community, along with their numerous media apologists in Ireland and Britain , hate Irish and hate those who speak Irish simply because it reminds them of some uncomfortable historical truths. Truths they would rather secret escapes see redacted from the history of Ireland secret escapes and of western Europe. Invasion, secret escapes occupation, colonisation and annexation are hardly attractive qualities to have in the record of any people s history. Genocide, linguicide and culturecide do not make for media-friendly spin. So its best to simply censor them from the record, to follow the route of a Stalin or Pol Pot and begin with a Year Zero . The history of Northern Ireland began in 1921 and naught but a few notable battles proceeded that. Hence the whiter-than-white boys and girls of NI21, the newest liberal Unionist party in Ireland, disparaging ( the wrong sort of ) history and memory as they gear up into action.
So the Irish language and associated culture or any sense of an indigenous Irish identity, secret escapes however tenuous or however open and all-encompassing, must be crushed under foot . Ground into the dirt. There can be no compromise, no sharing, no outreach. This is the ultimate culture war , one that goes to the very heart of Irish nationhood on the island secret escapes of Ireland.
Much of the ideology of political Unionism as expressed in Ireland is clear: British identity is English-speaking, English-reading, English-thinking. Anything secret escapes else, anything other, is foreign and alien. The Irish language by virtue of not being the English language is contemptible, repulsive, inferior. Irish-speakers by virtue of not being English-speakers are contemptible, repulsive, inferior . The age-old anti-Irish racism of British colonial culture on the island of Ireland is what drives the hatred of Irish among a cadre of Unionist leaders and their immediate followers. Ancient wars, ancients feuds, ancient blood-letting.
