1. Their education system seems to be working...

WAAAAAY better than ours.

[Skittles]

2. how did that guy look like a coke dealer

he looks squeaky clean and he's a university professor

OH WAIT

[Beringia]

3. These look like hip young people

What do their 50-something people think?

[cwydro]

4. The 50 something Irish folks I know, and I know quite a few, think he's an arse and a fookin' eejit.

The questions I got last spring while in Ireland were quite amusing.

My friends and relatives are often in touch, and they feel real sympathy for us lol.

[Beringia]

5. Do they say who they like of Dem candidates?

I know Ireland still outlaws abortion.

[cwydro]

7. No, it was legalized there last year.

I was there last spring, before any Dem candidates had been an issue, so no idea on that one.

Haven’t spoken with friends or relatives about the Democratic primary; lol, no doubt they’re baffled by the number of candidates we have.

It was clear they thought of the orange menace as a complete joke, however.

[Beringia]

9. Glad to hear abortion is legal now

[DFW]

6. What we have been dulled into taking for granted

Other civilized countries never are subjected to, and are therefore rightly appalled when they hear it.

[cwydro]

8. Yes, so sad, but spot on.

[malthaussen]

10. And for us, the sensation is one of relief...

... "Oh, thank Whomever, I'm not the only one with that reaction!"

It's very similar to a victim of constant abuse finding out that yes, others recognize the abuse. Instead of doubling-down on the gaslighting, these viewers are completely rejecting it.
