I guess that's what happens when a country has a really important figure that has earned international recognition in the arts and the next generation of artists from the same country are struggling because everyone compares them to this established artist. In Mexico many people trashed and tried to look hip by criticizing our only Nobel Prize in Literature Octavio Paz. The same thing happened in Colombia with Garcia Marquez. Crazy, unfounded accusations only because they dared to obtain international recognition.

I'm not so sure about. Shite Irish acts like Boyzone and Westlife have managed to have a lot of success without ever having been compared to U2. I'm afraid it's the tax thing and the fact that many people just don't like Bono. I don't ever read the comments on any Bono related social media items anymore as the hate and ignorance just gets on my nerves.
The fact that all of the members of U2 still have their main residences in Ireland, cars in Ireland, eat & drink in Ireland, employ a lot of people in Ireland means that they still pay a Hell of a lot more tax in Ireland than any of the begrudgers.
The fact that Bono's harping on and on has helped to save thousands of lives seems to be beyond the comprehension of the begrudgers.
To quote Bono: "Fuck the begrudgers" !!

Bono dislike isn't based on anything more than hating his sunglasses and a dislike of being preached to. Bono is am Irish man that purposely outs himself out there at every opportunity and that puts a lot of people off him.
Actually question their dislike of Bono and the band and hit them with a few counters and their arguments soon fall apart.
