I've never met an Irish person that "blames" the modern English for what our ancestors did. I might be talking out of turn, but I think they mainly just want us to acknowledge what happened and not downplay what the British did.

I met plenty when I lived there and plenty in the UK too.

Even while trying to acknowledge the sins of our past and sympathise with them (in all honesty), they still treated me like crap for who I am and where I'm from. That's just xenophobia
