There wasn't a problem. The east coast urban centres didn't fit will with how the IRA operated; they weren't launching these mass offensives to seize towns and cities, but were instead eroding British authority through isolated attacks until the area became ungovernable-at which point the Republican government took over.

In Dublin, invisibility of lead rebels was important as it allowed them to operate within the city and run the campaign from various safehouses; they had spies everywhere, and operated in secrecy.

The IRA has always considered the Republic of Ireland illegitimate and has been very firmly on the far left since the 1950s. It was already "left wing" in the 1920s, though, since Irish Republicanism is a left wing ideology. There has never been a "right wing rebellion" against British rule, unless you count medieval rebellions that were moreso about swapping out one foreign ruler for another.

This is what happens when their enemy suddenly kills itself.

We saw what le innocent civil rights movement did to whites in america
loyalists are based. they ethnically cleanse nonwhites from their estates while taigs protest for blm
And all ulster scot music is catchy. which is why taigs rip it off. taigs ripped off bold orange heroes of comber for their cringey black and tans song.

Their enemy didn't kill themself. After 30 years of fighting, the Provisional IRA agreed to stop in exchange for concessions granted by the GFA. Not all agreed with it.

The UDA and UVF weren't really the IRA's enemies, but they still existed. But Sinn Féin (the political wing) had become the senior partner in its relationship with the IRA, whilst beforehand it was the IRA calling the shorts. Sinn Féin (specifically the Gerry Adams faction) believed they had a path to progress via quitting the campaign and making inroads into politics.

Do you think that removing the greivances Catholics had with NI would have somehow been worse than permanently alienating them and slowly losing a political war of attrition to them?
>loyalists are based. they ethnically cleanse nonwhites
And nonwhites will shipped straight back into those communities by the Unionist politicians that decide these things, kekked.

International reading association?

There are plenty of apartheid societies that worked fine
The american south was great for like 300 years until the civil rights act ruined it
Why is ulster le bad when they do it to paddies?

No they don't
a unionist told rioters in ballymena that refugees were being held in a leisure centre so they could go there and wreck it

Northern Ireland, like many apartheid regimes, collapsed under the weight of its own autism.

The IRA didn't even need to do much for it to fall apart.
>a unionist told rioters in ballymena that refugees were being held in a leisure centre so they could go there and wreck it
The Unionist in question is Gordon Lyons, who supported the establishment of huge multinational immigration-focused firm in Northern Ireland-who are directly involved in approving the arrival of immigrants.

He, like the rest of the DUP, says one thing and does another every single time. I genuinely dunno how people keep falling for it.

>>513811956
Did the south collapse under the weight of its own autism?
No, the US government abolished jim crow by force
And ireland succeeded as a state with protestants at top and catholics at the bottom for over 300 years. That's a pretty long time
And why'd you ignore the part where you had to steal bold orange heroes of comber lmao

TAKE IT DOWN FROM THE MAST IRISH TRAITORS

Slavery was a constant point of contention between the north and south. It created a mini civil war in Kansas before the real one. People were literally killing their neighbors over whether or not the state constitution allowed slavery
