I am terrified by the idea of yanks LARPing as Welsh like they do Irish. My countrymen've been through enough shit, we don't need some cracker mangling Welsh as they try to act like they've got some blood quantum right to our culture (and by culture I mean whatever shitty stereotypes about us they gleaned from the TV).

Do they even know what a Welshman is?

Most people's understanding of Wales is sheep fucking jokes I think

I don't know, but I'm worried they'll find out.
