This post is going to blow up
It might run into some troubles along the way though.
Is this a reference to the Troubles? Sorry, speaking as an ignorant American who’s trying their best.
Yes, IRA car bombings.
Always glad to brush up on my acts of mass terrorism/righteous defenses of sovereignty*.
*Note: This is barely a funny, I legitimately have nowhere near enough knowledge on the topic, not even superficially. 14,000 words of Wikipedia article spanning 4 centuries? Just the Wikipedia article? Damn…
The troubles are so complex that I doubt even most Irish people could give a coherent timeline of events. The whole thing is a complex multi-faceted historical clusterfuck.
Am northern Irish (norn Irish), can confirm - it’s a huge cluster fuck and I don’t understand the nuances of it. All I know is that it’s ussins that are right and themmins that are wrong.
Paramilitaries on both sides used car bombs. If you want to do a deep dive on the Troubles the best non-partisan source is The CAIN Archive.
Thanks for educating me!
Oddly enough, a lot of the terrorism was funded by ignorant “Irish” Americans, so it’s kinda ironic 😅
Sounds about right.

When I first heard this song I thought it was about growing up with abusive parents. Never expected the reality to be worse
Kind of but on a nationwide step-parent kindof way
The last thing going through your mind will be your ass.
Ouch
And here I thought the IRA was going to reduce ICE cars on the road by subsidising EVs.
Boom
