Guinness

Here's a link to the website shown in their screenshot: https://russianoccupation.netlify.app/

Although currently it's not working because it received too much traffic too quickly. It looks like it was recently posted to Reddit, so it's likely the classic 'Reddit hug of death.' I figured I'd share the link anyway so that anyone who may be interested can save the link and try to check it later. It's a great idea to help people understand the shituation better.

ai generated slop site. could be a static webapp if they just precomputed the values/maps for each country.

Kleven?

Looks like nothing of value would be lost.

On the plus side, it'll actually upset Sinn Féin more which would be very funny.

Fuck Guinness.

Guinness moved its headquarters to London at the beginning of the Anglo-Irish trade war in 1932. In 1997, Guinness plc merged with Grand Metropolitan to form the multinational alcoholic-drinks producer Diageo plc, based in London.

Before 1939, if a Guinness brewer wished to marry a Catholic, his resignation was requested.[19] According to Thomas Molloy, writing in the Irish Independent, "It had no qualms about selling drink to Catholics but it did everything it could to avoid employing them until the 1960s."[20]

In the 1980s, as the IRA's bombing campaign spread to London and the rest of Britain, Guinness considered scrapping the harp as its logo.[20]

Is this a joke about part of Ireland being occupied by UK?

I didn't know; I didn't make it and I didn't even get a chance to check it out, since it was down. So I had no idea. I'm not surprised, though. At least the sloppage is for a good cause this time, lol.

oh shit I legit didn't know that

I don't even drink
