Look, calling a name like that that was absolutely out of line, but in all fairness you are from California! If you're pulling up your 23andMe results trying to convince people who were born and currently live in Ireland that you are somehow "more Irish" than them, you need a fucking reality check. That's shameless, and reeks of blood purity. You're essentially insulting Irish people the way this guy is insulting you, by comparing blood and deciding who is most "pure".
Don't be that kind of person.
That's now what I am trying to do at all. I am trying to make the point that shared cultural experience is more important than distant ancestors and that you don't get the right to call yourself something because some of your grandparents were immigrants. It's something Americans seem to get caught up on that repeatedly.
