You denied saying it - you lied, now your back defending it.

No I did not.
I stand by it.
I denied the previous, faked quotes you posted.

"Kinealy states that children were fed "nationalist myths" as history."
During the "Fee State" period - I've read her book - you haven't.


It came from this essay, and she makes clear it continued to recent if not present times.

Richardson wrote of her experience as a child in the seventies, and O'Callaghan also says it contued to recent if not present times.

If the Irish hate the British, how did that manifest itself.

Some Irish must inevitably hate Britain if they believe all the lies fed to them as children.
Professor Richardson did. In her case it was manifested as a desire to join IRA.
There is a wide spectrum of ways in which hate can be manifested, and I am not getting in to it.

I said, " generations of school children have been brainwashed to believe Britain should be blamed, keeping hate alive."

That is substantiated by the historians.
