General discussion / Northern nationalists versus ?

I've never once objected to a single post about any victim/s of the Troubles, and this forum has been filled with them over the years
So why do you object?
The mindset it takes to write the bolded part there boggles
Sadly there is a concerted strategy by a certain breed of northern nationalists to dehumanise "themmuns" and dismiss crucial truths which threaten the narrative of Sinn Fein through the construction of a Putinesque world of ultra-cynicism whereby anybody who voices these crucial and inconvenient truths is vilified
The irony is that those who dismiss voices of others as having "cynical motive" are the very people who buy into that Putinesque world of ultra-cynicism themselves, and they cannot comprehend how anybody might actually look at things through such framings as basic right and wrong
The breed of northern nationalists I reference above claim to want honesty, but in practice, they want the exact opposite, they want the truth swept under the carpet
As a northern nationalist myself, I don't understand this post. Perhaps Syd could elaborate?
