I keep seeing these words come up in chat from Irish users of the site. I had to look the meaning up.



Taig

Taig is a derogatory term for an Irish Catholic. It is mainly used by sectarian loyalists in Northern Ireland and Scotland. It has been used in sectarian slogans such as "Kill All Taigs" (KAT) and "All Taigs Are Targets" (ATAT).


Tarrier ( Tar)

Derogatory term for an Irish Catholic. Origins are unknown but used in the United States as a term for Irish railroad construction workers or someone who tars the road, principle occupations for immigrants at the time following the Great Famine.


I'm not from Ireland but using these "hate words" in chat should be banned.

Its 2024 for god sake and we have all seen Derry girls. This sh** needs to end and next time I see people using these words in chat I want them banned.

It is a shame that people like to claim they're not religious, yet hold onto things from the past based on religious things. Sadly though, it isn't going to get better for now. It will only get better when religion is banned, which is going to happen. But when religion is banned, it is not that God is backing it, as he is only backing the removal of "False" religion, which will leave only two sides on which we stand in the future.

So I'm sorry that you have to see this kind of stuff, but it is showing the boneheadedness of us humans, and the fact that we're exceptionally slow learners, and easily misled. Including me. I'm no exception.

But take comfort in the future, as it is prophecied that God is going to inspire the nations to turn against religion and ban it. It will successfully remove false religion off the face of the earth, and will leave people after it on one of two sides - demonstrated by their actions and attitudes when it happens.

Its more of a shame when a delusional chatter makes sh** up to get attention and create drama and then gullible fools believe them. I've literally never seen either of the words used in chat.

You expect the staff to be aware of every single hate term used throughout the world ? I may be totally wrong, but they could be of Gaelic origin, a language I'm certainly unfamiliar with. Every country has derogatory terms for other countries/people. If a clear derogatory term is reported it will be dealt with exactly how we deal with all other derogatory terms and unless you now own this site, please don't make demands that we ban chatters. That is not your call.

Only time I've ever seen those words used are up here in Scotland where sadly there is a rather large sectarian element of society and in this instance, it's Rangers supporters who use them describing Celtic supporters. But I've never seen them used on this site

I read this twice, and it genuinely makes no sense to me.

It reads like Not_Fred_Honest constant made up fairy tales that do not actually happen.

Which is why Not_Fred_Honest has no screenshots or other evidence.

Apparently, when god inspires nations to ban religion it's simply because god supports the removal of so-called false religion, and it has long been prophesised that god will do this.

Because god, the creator of all things and who supposedly gifted 'man' free-will, doesn't possess the divine power to simply man/woman-up and do it him/her self, right?

Because god would rather do exactly what the OP complains about, create division based on religious lines, with punishment for those who do not conform.

He/she would rather interfere and manipulate his own creations, that he gave free-will to, to do it on his/her behalf?

Then, once this has been achieved, it will leave people on two sides only, those who support true religion and those who don't, and if I have got the gist correct, no longer will there be divisions among 'man' stirred by religious bigotry.

Unless you continue to practice a faith that has been banned by nations inspired by god to ban, there is that?

Because a religious ideology can be banned by nations on god's behalf, right?

Or, since you are now atheist, you will be punished accordingly by the rules set by god and god's true followers.

Who gave 'man' free-will to choose for himself.

So long as he/she chooses the right side.

Demonising and alienating and then punishing billions of people, based on their religious beliefs. o_O

I'm not the kind of person who posts screen shots, I am the kind of person who's disappointed this sh** is still going on.

No one should give them a platform.

If these terms were used on FB or "X" those involved would face prosecution in UK under hate crime laws. Ignorance is no excuse.

We all need to be a aware this home grown problem is still a cancer within our society.

What a load of old bollocks.

While you spam "evidence" on the forum.

It's usually you demeaning and insulting other users, and including only yesterday.

The reality is, you're a poisonous cvnt who creates conflict where none exists.

Simply because you got booted by a female moderator a few months ago.

Now you are seeking revenge.

After all, it's your modus operandi. :rolleyes:

More absolute bollocks. Far, far worse is typed on "X" on an hourly basis and such is your thirst for e-revenge you are now suggesting the internet police will come and arrest users, with no evidence at all, to support your false claims.

If the internet police arrested every internet user, you are pretending to be offended by now, then they would get nothing else done would they. :)

If I'm wrong Kev, on "X" and post it. Prove me wrong.

I don't need to wait for anything at all.

I have posted it on X and the internet police have not arrested me.

Because you believe, irrationally, that you are a smartarse (like all the other internet smartarses) you believe that you can sidetrack the conversation now.

You should be banned for making false accusations about other chatters publicly on the forum.

Where it will be visible and where you think it will have the most impact.

Simply because you got booted by a female moderator a few months ago and also came to the forum to publicly b**** about it then.

You are always right and everyone else is always wrong, and when your delusional authority is challenged by actual authority, particularly a woman, you hold onto a grudge like the GIANT manboy you are.

It's your modus operandi.

Goodbye, chump. :)

So are you two ladies in an actual relationship or is this you just flirting?

Having a background in science, I am surprised you commented on this nothingness of a thread rather than on the much more important pandemic thread.

Too much of a scaredy-cat to air your opinion?

He? Not the sharpest tool in the box, are you?

Hold on, though, but weren't you complaining about pointless arguments on the forum a few weeks ago.

Nice to see you getting involved in one, sweetheart. :)
