"If you’re in your mid-40s in Lebanon, you’ve lived through 15 years of war, two Israeli invasions, 30 years of Syrian occupation, several rounds of economic collapse and currency devaluation, two Israeli bombing campaigns, a revolution, a wave of political assassinations that decimated the ranks of progressives, and, since the end of 2019, another wave of protests demanding the departure of the corrupt political elite – the same warlords who ran the war and then made the peace so they and their friends could continue to fill their pockets."

Where's your logic in spreading fud about Ireland ditching the EU (since the UK was doing so well with it)? Why on earth would we vote for that, because the superior English said so?
You might need a hard understanding of what Northern Ireland means to understand the farce of it all. There's more than enough to know what the island has gone through since the Munster, Offaly & Laois, Pale and Ulster plantations; since Cromwell and William of Orance on 1690. Since the 1790s, the 1820s, 1840s, 1880s, 1913, 1916, 1918, 1920s. Shit went on and on that stitched the narrative of 20th century Ireland. The 21st century for Ireland was/is all about peace and reconciliation. But now it's all collateral for foreign selfishness (of elites that want to abolish EU and Parliament laws set upon them)
There's a lot. A lot more, more to understand that ridicules of any factless opinion (arrogance).
The "Trouble" is real. The difference in money and VAT are within the business that are registered in either in the ROI or NI. The difference between a militarised border of the 80s and a modern day one between Poland and Kaliningrad are many worlds far between.
The difference between peace and war can be withered down to whether London breaks its International commitments to the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. You aska gain who is pushing the wedge through peace when peace has worked its way to creating a longed normality for the island of Ireland.

Firstly, media had a huge responsibility to bear. Not mainly media illiteracy but the distrust of journalistic integrity of traditional news organisations that would be centre, or performatively "non biased" but wholly uncritical of the existing system (economy, society, government, law).
These days are the sprouts of the Alt-Right seeds. Fox News, British tabloids, GBNews, TurningPoint now PragerU etc always had shady owners, motives, associates and business models. They held unaccountable power for being owned by the wealthy and well connected to mostly avoid tax, and now manufactures culture wars for "right wind audiences" that will not result far from the hate crimes of the Serbian war and Rewandan genocide.
The decline in material (and political and diplomatic) conditions that has taken a turn since 2008 was well warned in advance that there'll be a rise in antisemitism, racism, xenophobia, homophobia and do on that does persist most online.
Hungary, Poland, UK, now Italy, Finland, Sweden they seen very similar patterns. It's no reclaiming of western identity like they think they do - it was always a trick to distract people from the real causes of austerity, inflation and wealth transfer from public capital and revenue to private means.
But any Antisemite, racist, reactionary conservative or pro-establishment centrist will all plug their ears, shake their heads and shout traitor when groups start to point out inherit systemic flaws of capitalism, of wealth inequality, generational and inherited. Forgiveness of debt, public funding, co-operatives.
All that jazz that so many since the 80s have been thoroughly conditioned to reactly badly too.

Well Ian there's the problem, part of it; the speculation of others' politics (especially English - American optics) that boils down to chauvinistic entertainment.
What has happened to the UK over the years post-2008 was the migration of specific American politics and investors that helped orchestrate Brexit and moresome.
What makes the UK's crash look so spectacular is that it had a higher height (social protections, food standards, waste water regulations, etc) to fall from .
What what does that say about how well the US runs? C'mon, your Floridian Gov is entrapping voters for debts or other reasons. Your Biden is accelerating the path to climate collapse (tax credits for electric Hummers won't do) he could lift a finger and make federal pressure and regulations on industries, planning, social, food and ecological protections .
But for him, the Abortion subject is centre stage, and he is neglecting everything else.
It will be a bloodbath in the midterms.
Ask again who is being run worse in 3 months, Ian.

Collapse will come for the US if its workers will continue to be squeezed their lives out by the workplace, college debts and rent the way they are and never have a decent living, without a decent shred of democracy
when police departments continue to regularly harass, abuse and murder civilians, when for profit prisons are continuously given federal money to imprison non violent drug offenders or debtors,
When said prisons, pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, car companies, private schools, weapons manufacturers and shadow donor lobbyists are given full access to political power.
When the climate crisis burns, drowns and starves everyone first on the bottom rung with collapsing infrastructure
That's how the US will collapse itself,with barrels pointing at itself.
Hyping up voting red or blue will only accelerate it.
