Is it though? You would be hurt if someone thought you were Italian? You must think pretty poorly of them lol
Comment on Well, I guess that settles it

I’m not trying to hate on you but there’s a real problem with using the word ethnic to mean non white. You are certainly ethnic. You belong to an ethnicity.

Buddy, I’m German, I assure you I’ve been subjected to plenty of prejudice myself thank you very much. Ever seen Die Hard? So flattering.

on aversge, how many "nein"s do you hear from non-germans per day?
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Well, fast food places are a nightmare, for one. It’s always “neiny nein” this and “neiny nein” that.

I have the perfect response to that but this is by far my favorite sub and I don’t want to risk offending the mods, so I’m afraid I can’t answer that question.

sorry but Luigi Mangione sounds like a name a token Italian character would have in harry potter. idk how prejudiced it is to assume this is an italian name.

Everything is hurtful now. Even nationality… jeez

It’s important to remember that the Italians and the Irish were treated as a low rung of American society not all that long ago.
They are legitimate victims of the brunt of American hate.

Is there anyone Americans haven’t hated and/or discriminated against yet? Anyone ever not been a victim of the US?

Hard to discriminate against someone who can buy their way past it.

Counterpoint, CEO’s death being praised by many. Seems like hatred is an equal opportunity thing, but some are more insulated to it than others.
