To my knowledge, I am of 100% Irish extraction, and I could care less about the term ‘Paddy.’

In fact, you can look up the ‘Children's song’ which contains the words ‘Knick Knack Paddy whack, give the dog a bone. This is a reference to the Irish Potato Famine of the mid 19th century where thousands died and the British Overlords manipulated the situation. The Irish were nearly destroyed and those who lived were treated like dogs for many years. But do your own digging. ‘Hey, I see what I did there.’

There is no benefit to raging over the Sins of dead generations. A bunch of Englishmen invaded Ireland stole their land, killed untold thousands, compelling many of them to flee to America where again they were treated like vermin.

The English invaded a country and oppressed an entire population and many perished. They sang songs about it. Am I supposed to go kill Englishmen now? Nein Danke.
