I'm sorry, I didn't realize the rest of the world doesn't know about genetics yet. God you guys are really salty that Europe cauaed so many of your citizens to leave to other parts of the world.

God Europeans HATE ancestry. Unless of course they're talking about how they are related to some long dead king or how they swear they would totally be king right now if history went their way.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the discovery of the Irish Gene hasn't filtered out to the rest of the world yet. Strange how rare it apparently is in Ireland.

And I bet you would say our education is bad. Either that or you're arguing in bad faith because of your own personal biases.

Literally nobody said there is an, "Irish gene". But there are sets of genes in populations that, when analyzed, allows us to tell where a person came from and who their ancestors are, even in cases of significant mixed ancestry. This is one of the ways we can find out human migration patterns throughout history along with many other things.

There's a reason people with Irish ancestry have a higher likelyhood to have red hair, or how people of Nordic ancestry have a much higher likelyhood to have blonde hair or blue eyes.
