This is your brain on revanchism. While the concept of generational trauma and justice is useful to right historical wrongs, and many times you can't make positive change without breaking a few eggs in minecraft, thinking that death and suffering are "earned", or that they're actually a good thing when they happen to people because they benefitted (and in the case of the irish that is a very loose fit) from exploitation is just moving away from justice onto barbarism.

That's true. My point was not to argue whether the Irish as a people benefited/still benefit from colonial structures though, my point was that preventable, massive loss of life is not "earned" or desirable in any case.
Sometimes lives will be made forfeit in the defense of class position, and unfortunate choices will have to be made then for the purpose of the revolution, but to me, a principled leftist should fight to prevent mass death and suffering whenever possible, otherwise we're just killing people for a kick.
The Irish potato famine did barely nothing to advance anticolonial struggles, so to say it was deserved/necessary from an anticolonial standpoint is not only wrong, it's unnecessarily cruel.
