  • Iirc they imported Corn from the US since it was cheap. But corn is a odd crop, it's difficult to digest especially for the Irish who weren't accustomed to the crop. So it provided minimal nutrition for the Irish.

    This was framed as "Look, we give them food and they're still starving! We're wasting money, giving it to the Yanks, all for nothing! This is clearly god punishing the Irish for their sin!"

    I don't remember the exact responses by different groups in Parliament, infect Peel was probably wasn't ass harmful as the others.

    Although, I think it's funny to know that the British PM at the time was named Peel.

  • We do the EXACT same thing here already.

    I remember being on reddit and complaining thr everything was political. And holy shit Lemmy is like 10x more political. Like, I get it, they are important issues. But I don't wanna see it for every single post.

    Oh, and let's not forget thr .ml users....

  • I have both Lemmy and reddit.

    The front page on Lemmy changes every week.

    On reddit it changes daily.

    The only new posts I see best the end of the day on Lemmy are all in German.

    Don't get me wrong, Lemmy is great, but it's got a LONG way to crawl to get to reddit's level of success.
