Following is a discussion on the page titled: Did James Connolly Betray Socialism?.
Below is the discussion so far. Feel free to add your own comments!This is a blinder of an article, prepare for the brick-bats to be thrown our way by the loyal devotees of Connolly.
Oh, and lest we forget the sort of nonsense he spouted:
Quote:the frontiers of Ireland, the ineffaceable marks of the separate existence of Ireland, are as old as Europe itself, the handiwork of the Almighty, not of politicians. And as the marks of Ireland’s separate nationality were not made by politicians so they cannot be unmade by them.https://www.marxists.org/archive/connolly/1916/02/whtfrnat.htm
It's not a "nation" any more than anywhere else but it is geographically separate as little as that matters.
