I was going to let this lie, and maybe I still should. However….

Yes, I was “unaware of this”. Please explain your first sentence, and who the people are that you are speaking for and who you claim despised her. Apart from yourself, obviously. And why, exactly.
I think it stemmed from the time she ripped up a picture of the pope on Saturday night live offending lots of American catholics.
She wasn't wrong though, considering the amount of nonce priests in Ireland that were quietly shipped out to the US when they got found out.
And the Catholic Church still absolves itself of any blame

I bought her first album when I was 12 or 13 after seeing her on TOTP, but she tended to fly under the chart radar for the most part.

Wearing rainbow clothing after becoming a muslim didn't win her many friends either... Dumbass always spouting off about gay rights & womens equality etc.. while being a member of the most (openly) anti-gay & anti woman superstition on the planet

You’re very bitter. Is it the pope’s picture or the US national anthem thing that’s upset you? See - I took your advice…

Either way i don’t think it compares with her/her family’s experience re the Magdalene laundries as reason to be, ummm, upset about her.

I liked Sinead, she wound people up a treat and I admire that ability. Music was mostly shite, but you can’t have it all.

I tried very hard to understand that. I think I'm missing something.

Bitter? LMFAO! She merely suffered from a common malady... her fame & talent exceeded her intellect.
