      There are Irish who have very fair, almost literally white, skin, and jet black hair. By tradition, they are descended from survivors of the Spanish Armada.

      Unfortunately, all of the Spaniards who made it to shore were slaughtered by Elizabeth’s forces before they could have established relationships with any Sheilas.

        ‘Black Irish’, along w somewhat rarer ‘Black Scot’, sprung from thousands and thousands of sailors and soldiers of the Spanish Armada invasion of 1588, destroyed in a series of catastrophic storms which drove the fleet from Dover northward.

        Shipwrecked up and down eastern and western Scot coastlines, the vast majority of survivors landed along northern and western coast of Eire.

        In Eire, if you ain’t cream-skin blonde or pale-ass ginger, you likely are ‘Black Irish’.

        Never heard that before; could you link me a source for the claim that ‘all’ were ‘slaughtered’ by Brit forces, which were, according to every source encountered in my own reading, concentrated along the Channel, where Brit-intercepted Spanish comms said the Armada would land.

        The idea that a British monarch, esp E the 1st, would spread precious trained and armed soldiers to the least-regarded, least-prized, utterly-despised Eire is rather hard to believe, if you will pardon my perspicacious nature.

        If no Armada survivors made babies, from whence -do- ‘Black Irish’ hail?

        Thus, a source or link would be fascinating.

        Thanks much for your consideration!
        God Bless you and yours, Fox2!

        I recall reading some time ago that the British conquered Ireland essentially to force the Irish to stop raiding them. If true, that makes having a lot of soldiers in Ireland a lot more reasonable, but I am by no means knowledgeable in that particular segment of history, so take it with a grain of salt.

        I agree somewhat with Scott. It I my understanding that the remains of the Armada was forced, under adverse conditions, to circle around the northern edge of Erie where the many shipwrecks deposited Catholic sailors along the shores of a Catholic country. The sailors were accepted and assimilated. Note the Spanish surnames of many of the Irish politicians.

      The way I heard it…when the Spanish Armada attacked England and was swept away in a massive storm, some of the ships and their crews found their way to Ireland. The Spanish sailors remained in Ireland, married, and raised families. These Spanish/Irish offspring are referred to as Black Irish.

      Of course, a Google search on “black irish” will give you several hits a lot of interesting reading.

I was standing there waiting for the tank to fill when a “large” lady (5XL minimum) in international orange spandex opened her passenger side door, bent down and proceeded to start collecting trash from the floorboard. The first thing that popped into my head was, “Damn! Lady! Watch where you’re pointing that thing!”

    Apropos of everything else, HBO Max has removed Gone With the Wind. Hattie McDaniel was the first black actress nominated for and to win an Oscar, in a performance that remains a tour de force even today. (Best Supporting Actress, 1939)

    Destroying culture and ignoring history is no way to go through life.

    Also, if you haven’t listened to the 1 hour 28 minute conference call (read: profanity-laced tirade) among Mayor Groot and the 50 Aldermen in Chicago, it is pure comedy gold (if you can get past repeated use of the F-Bomb as all seven parts of speech).

        It is a long running Leftist myth that the “Black Community” only made progress after they were liberated from Jim Crow. They had a diverse and dynamic culture of their own in Hollywood and gave us many wonderful and indeed sometimes awesome, moments in film.
        What many don’t realize is that LBJ and the Welfare State destroyed that culture by destroying the Black Family.

        Ashamed to be white is the whole dynamic of the Church of Woke.
        And there is some truth to it. The “White Left” is well aware of their racial prejudice, and have been taught that it is genetic, that they cannot absolve themselves of their original sin.
        Of course any sane person knows that racial prejudice is indoctrinated and therefore can be unlearned, but the Woke, as an Issue of Faith, deny this.

        Genetic vs. indoctrination a/k/a Nature vs. nurture?
        Both I think.

        Like other diseases physical or mental, certainly the bloodline is a determining factor in prejudices good or bad, based on the historical reasoning for it. Which history actually applies much more to the blacks than the wokes, and the indoctrination much more so to the woke along with a high incidence of mental issues of self-hate and God knows what other learned thought/behavior controls absorbed in those academic camps.

        Racism is rampant among them both, though they fail to grok the irony. At least blacks come by their hate honestly, while that of the woke is intentionally planned and weaponized to destroy anything and everything…including ultimately their own ignorant selves of course.

        In the meantime the woke are by far the most dangerous.

        I have great doubt about the “forever” thing.
        Leftism is a disease of the Privileged Elite who literally don’t know or care about the origin or meaning of the wealth they wield.
        Sadly, although this can be overcome by a proper education, said proper education is in very short supply in wealthy circles that depend on perpetual financial inheritance.
        The school of hard knocks, that is to say actually earning a living, usually vaccinates most of us from such silliness.
        The Elite have their place, being the custodians of Capital, but periodically they get too big for their britches and inspire a Populist Revolt.
        Presently that Revolt is being headed by PDJT, but is certainly not dependent on him, and that will prove to be a surprise to the “Never Trumpers” who think they will return to their Elitist Nirvana on his removal.
