There is a load of shite on this here interweb device isn’t there[1] And most of this shite occurs when people come out and make black and white statements which aren’t simply a statement of opinion, or belief, but instead suggest that they are, in fact, The Truth. I won’t repeat myself by stating I dislike black and white statements/arguments or the notion that there is such a thing as one truth[2]
I just wonder how someone could possibly make the statement below[3] with having read every single literary publication written in Irish. And therefore, in order to make that judgement, you need the ability to speak Irish.
There is no writer in the Irish language that anyone need bother reading if looking for Irish literary contributions
And as for the lack of respect to those people who appreciate Irish traditional music? Yeah, dude. Whatever.[4]
