My point is first, that NI will have a smaller economy due to being five times smaller, then when I realized we were talking per capita, I said that since Ireland has very little people, there is more wealth to go around. Which you may think contradicts me saying there's less wealth go go around, but it's all about context. So when talking about the economy, NI is smaller, so there is less money than Ireland. When talking about per capita, likewise, Ireland is smaller than the UK, which means there is much less people to spread out the wealth to, therefore more to go around.
In the end, we should stop talking per capita because it means nothing. In the grand scheme of things, the Ulster Irish are here to stay, and they've been here for a long enough time to be considered full blooded Irish, especially because not all Irish Protestants are necessarily descended from English colonists; expelling them from their homeland, especially forcibly, is a considerably oppressive trampling on the rights of the people and the right to self determination, and advocating any sort of displacement or genocide of Irish Protestants takes away any possible argument or credibility.
I was specifically talking about GDP per capita. That is why I explicitly mentioned it in every post where I was talking about it.
You are simply lying. If you read the posts you were replying to, you would have known I was talking about GDP per capita, even if you missed the 'per capita' part (which you couldn't have) the posts would make no sense if I was talking about total GDP. You are now simply making up excuses now since I exposed your contradictory statements.
I'm not lying- I genuinely didn't realize we were talking per capita, I didn't look at the numbers and say 'damn that's small' because I wasn't thinking about that, I was thinking about my argument. You still haven't refuted it, by the way.
Many Ulster-Scots see themselves as Irish, a lot are even culturally Irish. However those who hate Ireland should be deported.
Now that's just ridiculous. Maybe immigrants without citizenship that do bad things that taint Ireland's reputation, but deporting someone for simply disliking the country is a complete violation of every fundamental right to free speech.
