Someone on an Irish genealogy group posted a story on how some professor at Trinity speculated some of the original inhabitants of Ireland were dark skinned and a lot of people- mostly other Americans sad to say lost their shit. The native Irish people were like “Yeah that makes sense, it doesn’t bother me.” I’m slightly less Irish than I am German and Eastern European but you know what, that didn’t change my appreciation for the culture and people there. People take the results of the DNA tests way too seriously and if it’s not what they want it to be, they take it as an attack on this identity they’ve created for themselves.
