Meta-Writing about Irish Nationalists and about Unionists


Dear [Irish Friend/Unionist Friend],

Thanks again for all your careful usage and stylistic comments—which I hope to review soon.

What I really wrote you aboutWhat I really wanted know is if you think this part (quoted below) is mean spirited or an attack on Irish or Unionist sensibilities—even if fundamentally accurate. Or, do you think my writing below is fair and acceptable political discourse even if slightly charged.

I want to avoid people saying:
Tillman gets away saying that because he is foreigner;
or
Tillman thinks he can say that because he does not think we have feelings—He does not think we and this little country count—He’d never talk that way about his country or about conflicts & people he genuinely cares about.
Thank you,

Seth

I rarely share my story with people, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($690,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment

 strategy. I was made to believe my investment would triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($820,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to maryshea03@gmail.com to WhatsApp her +15623847738.who helped recover about 80% of my lost funds within a month.
