Reply to comment by bajcli in The Irish Prostitute by a_nonprofit_prophet

Obvious to those who know. Not necessarily obvious to someone who knows nothing of Ireland or the rivalry between catholics and protestants there.

True, but it's still more likely that it got downvoted for that than whatever the other person suggested. Not even sure what the reason for the "flurry of downvotes" was supposed to be: Irish Catholics being offended that their religion is being disrespected? Irish people in general being offended that people aren't aware of their struggles?

Whatever it is, I feel pretty certain that it's not THAT complicated or insidious.
