Cause Italians arent little bitches that cry over everything. They realize everything isnt racist or offensive. Unlike some.

a) are you italian yourself?
b) what makes you think (even if you are italian) that you can speak for everyone else that's italian?
c) do you realize you're perpetuating racism even as you deny its existence
d) do you like using disparaging words toward women because you have no respect for your mom
e) jerk it with luigi


F) you're fucking reaching
G) go protest

See, adding F and G onto the end of the initial list makes it look like you're adding points to the list, essentially mocking yourself. Should have gone with an a) b) structure, or maybe 1) 2) instead.

Mario is an Italian stereotype. The reason Italians don't complain is that as a group they are doing relatively well. It's only underachieving groups that overreact to those types of things or get the paternalistic defense from fake outrage liberals.

Italians are European. Latinos are from Latin America and often have darker skin tones, native ancestry, and come from countries once ravaged by European colonialism.

Italy is not culturally similar to most Latin American countries.

Spaniards are Hispanic, but are not Latino. Brazilians are Latino, but are not Hispanic. Spaniards too are "white" by both American standards and their own standards.

A better example to your point would probably be Asians, who are at this point actively penalized in college applications even though they're just as much of a minority as other minorities.

If by "silly poop logic" you mean actual logic. It's not the 19th century anymore, Italians aren't disadvantaged and have been absorbed by the overall "white American" culture. Latinos are and have not. The only "silly poop logic" is your own.


The entire reason for the privilege you're describing, however, is purely an exposure thing. There isn't a massive influx of Italian immigrants who either don't speak english or speak it only poorly. Most Italians in America are the result of being descended from the italian families that came over during the 19th century. While Italian immigration to America is still ongoing, it's not happening at the same frequency as Mexicans or other spanish-speaking south Americans. Additionally, it's much harder for Italians to arrive in America illegally. This constantly reinforces a perception of "others" when it applies to south americans.

So you've got people frequently being exposed to south american immigrants with language and cultural barriers clashing constantly, and not frequently being exposed to the Italian version of the same thing.

The result is that Italians never get their "othering" publically spread the way mexicans do.

Genetically, Italians, Spanish, Portugese, French, Greek and Romanians are all a single ethnic group.

Mexicans and a few others have deviated due to interbreeding with natives at this point, though.

a) are you italian yourself?
b) what makes you think (even if you are italian) that you can speak for everyone else that's italian?
c) do you realize you're perpetuating racism even as you deny its existence
d) do you like using disparaging words toward women because you have no respect for your mom
e) jerk it with luigi

I'm not PoopMcgee but...

a) yes
b) This is circular logic in which no one can be taken for their word on anything and we can just ignore that any kind of racism exists whatsoever
c) You realize your point "b" does exactly what you accuse PoopMcgee of?
d) N/A
e) here in Italy, we say vafanculo.

bonus: there is literally nothing offensive or racist about Mario. If anyone wants to see what a racist italian caricature looks like, watch Son of Sam.
