how racists who care about “preserving culture” look at you when you mention the irish language

I hate to break it to you all but... Ulster Irish is the best one and the nicest to speak

Cànan nan Gàidhael / Teangaidh na nGael

Gaels, Gaels lend me your ear. It has come to my attention that there are a number of prominent issues for Gaels and those interested in the language and culture on tumblr. Let me begin. The quality of patter in the #Gaeilge tag is of a much better quality than that of the #Gaidhlig/Gàidhlig tags and frankly that’s embarressing. There’s also the disunity between the #Gàidhlig and #Gaidhlig tags which needs pulled together. Also the #Gaelg tag is practically non-existent and you barely ever see any unoffical dialectial Gaelics on tumblr.

I propose we all use #Gaedhilig, or some variation of (I personally prefer Gaidhealig/Gaidhealige) so that our patter can combine into a Mega-Patter-Lingua. We will stand stronger in a united front.
