Question for Irish folks: do you find Biden's (and Americans more generally) hyper-enthusiastic claiming of their Irish ancestry odd or endearing?

I've never understood why it seems such a big deal to them.

@xtaldave It’s freakish. It’s like they think they have no culture or history of their own so they have to glom onto anything else they may have even the most tenuous link to.

It would be like us saying “yeah I’m a quarter Saxon and seven-sixteenths Viking, so I’m going to raze a village to the ground next week then watch the Chelsea match”.
