Irish man’s viral video calling Indian family’s home purchase ‘Colonisation’ sparks backlash; netizens say 'ask your government to...'
Controversial ‘Colonisation’ Claim
The controversy erupted when O'Keeffe captioned the video with the words, “Another house bought up by Indians. Our tiny island is being colonised by a country of 1.5 billion people.” This remark immediately ignited a storm of reactions online, with many accusing O’Keeffe of using inflammatory and outdated language to describe immigration.
Public Outrage and Online Reactions
Many users swiftly condemned the use of the word «colonised,» pointing out the irony and ignorance in O’Keeffe's statement. One commenter responded, «This thinking is rooted in ignorance. Every country benefits from diversity.» Another user defended the family’s right to own property, saying, “How is it colonisation if they are simply buying homes? This rhetoric is harmful and unnecessary.”
Rohit Jain, a social media user, remarked, «Buying a house is a personal choice and part of living in a global society. We should be welcoming, not hostile.» Another added, «They’re contributing to the local economy, just like anyone else.»
