@prouddegenerate @amerika Back in the day, Italians were as hated as middle easterners these days, or blacks. They were just fucking hated. So they weren't "white" because the other "whites" didn't want em, same with the Irish, not "white" and were classed as a type of negro for some time.

ive been thinking about flann o’brien recently and still really need to read ‘an beal bocht’
An Béal Bocht is set in Corca Dhorcha, (Corkadoragha, Corkadorkey) (a parody of Irish: Corca Dhuibhne, the name for the Dingle Peninsula), a remote region of Western Ireland where it never stops raining, everyone lives in desperate poverty (and always will), while also talking in “the learned smooth Gaelic”. It is a memoir of one Bónapárt Ó Cúnasa (Bonaparte O’Coonassa), a resident of this region, beginning at his very birth. At one point the area is visited by hordes of Gaeilgeoirí (Irish language lovers) from Dublin, who explain that not only should one always speak Irish, but also every sentence one utters in Irish should be about the language question. However, they eventually abandon the area because the poverty is too impoverished, the cultural authenticity is too culturally authentic, and because the dialect of the Irish-language spoken in Corca Dhorcha is far too Irish.

Reminds me of Conrad and his parody of colonization, Costaguana.
@Jazzy_Butts @prouddegenerate
We recognize the Italians and Irish as mixed, therefore not suitable for White populations.
Send 'em back!
