why are americans so obsessed with race and ancestry?
it's ok to know and whatnot, but why would you talk about this stuff constantly?
seriously, ancestry means nothing to anyone that isn't you.

ahahahahah no you are NOT white.

Italians aren't blonde/blue eyed, but they have fancy/non Spanish surnames so kinda.

Why are there so many Italians in SA?

ugay
yes

what

How the fuck is it special here?

It's the normality here.

I honestly thought there were more in NA, Italian last names are very common in teh us

I feel like all the Italians in South America have more Italian first and last names than the typical Anglo first name people here

Regular people aren't it's just that Americans on Jow Forums are either complete losers (and obsess over memes and race) or sort of losers (the ones who aren't polfags but are still socially inept enough to be here, such as me and anyone else who calls out the super retardation)

but in real life normies don't ever talk about this it's fucking weird

more than in Argentina?
are you retarded? like actually diagnosed

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

no, you are not white
no, you are not italian
no, your nona, even if 1/1028 italian, doesn't make you italian
no, you are not european
no, don't even try it

yes, you are latino
yes, you are argentinian
yes, you will not learn how to speak italian
yes, you will be treated like shit in Italy
yes, you will be treated like shit in all of europe
yes, you will never be italian nor european

if you have to ask you don't understand US history

not really. at least here is common in a kid with italian ancestry to put a Spanish name first
ex: Fernando Castiglioni

no m8, this is prominent even with normies.
every fucking american I've seen on TV calls himself "Irish", "German", "Scotish" or "Italian", they do that all the time, as if they weren't all americans and didn't speak any language other than english.
it's an actual thing, nobody does that.

well no, I don't, why would I know/understand another country's history?
do you understand Peruvian history?

>nobody does that
nobody else does that*

>every fucking american I've seen on TV calls himself "Irish", "German", "Scotish" or "Italian"
do you also think we wear sneakers indoors because they do it on sitcoms?

It's an easy way to let the audience know what a character is like by using stereotypes i.e. the Irish one is a drunk, the Italian is feisty, the Scot is boisterous, and so on

no,to be frank anything italian is associated with corruption here, There are several people with italian last name in politics for example

I'm not talking about fiction.
I'm talking about interviews and such.
I've heard Conan O'Brien say he's Irish a thousand times.
it's fucking hilarious to know that's how americans behave.

whoa, italian-americanettes looks like THIS!?!?!?!?!?

Fernando is an italian name too btw, same thing with Alberto.

Fake map that has been debunked many times.

Do you really believe that celebrities on talk shows aren't playing characters?

yes, you will be treated like shit in all of europe
no, don't even try it

What exactly is measured here? There can't be only 2 mil Italians in Europe. I knew Italy has a big nigger problem but it's impossible that 58 of the 60 million people living in Italy aren't Italians.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Argentines

Under the list of people, there are a lot of Jose’s and Juan’s, which aren’t Italian names

I dunno how many of those names are Italian first names or Spanish though.

Argentina has no association with italy whatsoever in any way, shape or form; and using it as an argument is a fallacy.
Also, linking to Wikipedia articles as a source of valid information is a good way to make others stop taking you seriously, it's full of lies and unchecked data: no such a thing as ''italian-argentines''

no, pretty much every other mutt here has italian surnames

surnames is where it's at

by law (mostly ignored nowadays) your name was supposed to be in spanish with minor exceptions

not just spanish, they had to be Castilian names.
my parents named me Santiago (yeah, I know) because they weren't allowed to name me Iago, a Galician name.

How different are the typical Castilian names from italian/other Iberian names?

Wait why? aren't Italian-Americans known for being gangsters, thieves and criminal mafia?

because your knowledge of "americans" are based on Jow Forums memes.

I'm not being rude or anything but I don't know m8, google it.
they are similar for the most part, but they look weird to castilian speakers, like Xabier being Catalonian (I think) and Javier being Castilian.
