By using the concepts "potato" and "Irish"

The only reason those concepts are linked is because potato was the emergency food during the period during which England was trying to kill all Irish people

That’s an insane misapprehension of the potato famine

You, who needed an explanation on how a joke about Irish and potatoes was offensive, are an expert on the famine?

I don’t think you have to be an expert to know that the Irish Potato Famine wasn’t a situation where potato’s were all there were to eat. I think you just have to be someone who didn’t fail out in the 5th grade.
