Doesn't sound too dissimilar from the experiences of American colonialists when they visited the mother country prior to the war for independence:

The most effective cure for Northern Irish unionism? Attitudes in England

This is the saddest part (or most pitiful part) of Unionism for me; the NI unionist community are so deeply loyal to a people that by and large do not care about them. At all.

Though admittedly, you could also say that the ROI doesn't particularly care about them, either.
Irish republicans definitely care about them

Words
Campaigning is different from governance, and SF is the most relevant social democratic force on the island poised to take power.

SF definitely cares a lot about Irish Catholics in NI or else they wouldn’t be doing so well with them as a group. A united island would also avoid harmful hard borders and make commercial activity easier as well as separating NI from England.

Alliance’s housing policy, among other policies, is not good compared to SF’s policies.
