since every time italians try to bring up the issue of mafia romanticization in media and fandom some GENIUS always comes up with the ‘it’s just white people wanting to be oppressed’ rhetoric, i quickly gathered some articles in english (it literally took me less than 3 minutes) for you to read and realize just how wrong they are:
‘Migrants are more profitable than drugs’: how the mafia infiltrated italy’s asylum system - The Guardian
Are your tinned tomatoes picked by slave labour? How the Italian mafia makes millions by exploiting migrants - The Guardian
Exploitation in the fields: Sikh workers toil under gangmasters on Italian farms - CBC
The Mafia is poised to exploit coronavirus, and not just in Italy - CNN
Italy’s migrants living through an emergency within an emergency: in Castel Volturno, thousands of undocumented migrants are caught between coronavirus and the mafia - Al Jazeera
How the Mafia infiltrated Italy’s hospitals and laundered the profits globally - The Financial Times
you all claim to love social justice, but when you are asked to stop romanticizing organized crime you decide to conveniently ignore the fact that their main victims are exactly those people you purport to defend: poc, migrants, women, the sick and poor.
US white supremacists: *appropriate grecoroman culture as their own and use it to support their hateful agenda and Neonazi bigotry*
Greeks and Italians, with a long history of ethnic discrimination, fascism, foreign occupation and/or colonization, genocide, forced expatriation and refugees: You come into my house..
Italians, after being treated like serfs in rural america after the 1865 abolition of slavery, de facto replacing the hard labor African American slaves were inhumanely used for. Being grossly underpaid, mocked for their poverty and low social status, taunted for their dark skin, their perceived “subhumanity”, catholic religion, and their necessarily tight-knit community against a society that openly despised them – to the point of cheering the deaths of Italian migrants dying like animals on overpacked ships while trying to reach America to escape the most miserable conditions our country had ever known.
Italians, after being called degrading ethnical slurs for more than a century, the most pervasive of which was & is wop, literally meaning without papers – the first shout to be echoed in 21st america with the disgusting “alien immigrant” rhetoric used against Latin Americans.
Italians, after being targeted by the KKK as other European immigrants like Jewish people, poles and the irish, and of course African Americans:
Italians, after being described as part of a "promiscuous immigration… [of]…the filthy, wretched, lazy, criminal dregs of the meanest sections of Italy" (December 18, 1880, NYT’s editorial “Undesirable Emigrants”) and being the subject of a delightful immigration-scare spawning articles with not-at-all-incendiary titles like "Italians Coming in Great Numbers” and “Number of Immigrants Will Be Limited Only By Capacity of Liners” (April 17, 1921, always NYT)
Italians, after being called ”just a little worse than the Negro, being if anything filthier in their habits, lawless, and treacherous“ by actual democratic politicians in the 1920s, and seeing the media reinforce the idea of them being violent, ignorant, clannish, innately brutal men-beasts.
italians, after being on the receiving end of hate crimes as lynchings, often because they had dared to stand in small groups of no more than five italians, or for incredibly disgusting reasons like what motivated the lynching that happened in 1899 in Tallulah, Louisiana, when three italian-american shopkeepers were lynched because they had treated blacks in their shops the same as whites. A vigilante mob didn’t stop at the three, innocent men, but hanged five Italian Americans – the three shopkeepers, and two equally innocent bystanders.[17]
italians, after being on the receiving end of the LARGEST SINGLE MASS LYNCHING IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, A HATE-CRIME SO VICIOUS IT STILL MAKES MY SKIN CRAWL AND WAS OPENLY CHEERED ON BY WHITE PROTESTANT AMERICANS, as you can see in this god-forsaken NYT article quoting: These sneaking and cowardly Sicilians, the descendants of bandits and assassins, who have transported to this country the lawless passions, the cut-throat practices, and the oath-bound societies of their native country, are to us a pest without mitigation. Our own rattlesnakes are as good citizens as they… Lynch law was the only course open to the people of New Orleans to stay the issue of a new license to the Mafia to continue its bloody practices
italians, after being targeted as potential socialist threats on the basis of…I don’t know, us liking the concept of people having enough to eat, I guess, and being put in camps with the Japanese and the Germans during WWII:
FUCK ALL WHITE SUPREMACISTS, ALL OF THEM, ESPECIALLY IF THEY’RE OF ITALIAN DESCENT. WE WEREN’T MOCKED, OVER-WORKED, MISTREATED & KILLED FOR YOU TO PLAY BUDDY-BUDDY WITH FUCKING WHITE PROTESTANT NEO-NAZIS.NO WHITE SUPREMACIST HAS THE RIGHT TO USE OUR NATIONAL MYTHOLOGY, NOR THAT OF THE GREEK PEOPLE.
Nazis were huge fans of the ancient Greek culture, especially the Spartan one. They admired the athletic vigour and harmony of our statues and the elegance of our traditions. However, when they conquered Greece during WWII (killing men, women and children as they went), they were disappointed to find that the modern Greeks had few similarities to the idealised image of the ancient Greek figure. They attributed it to us being tainted by the Turks (we’d been occupied by them for centuries) and the Slavs (our neighbours, and the race they hated the most after the Jews), and convinced themselves that they, the Nazis, are the true successors of the glorious ancient Greeks. We were considered degenerates, debased, mongrelised, while they claimed the ancient Greeks were “Nordic” and their ancestors! Fuck them and the tanks they rode in. Fuck them for appropriating our culture and telling us we’re not worthy of our own fucking history. Fuck the white supremacists who think they can use Greek mythology to support their ideas after decades of being racist to Greeks and Italians. It enrages me so much that I’m literally frothing in the mouth as I type.
And you know what? FUCK LEFTIST “PROGRESSIVE”/SJWS US-AMERICANS AS WELL.
People often forget that there is a radical left as there is a radical right. Same way the Nazis thought we aren’t “proper” Greeks, so do American SJWs. We were too “dark” for the Nazis and too “white” for the SJWs Americans, to the point they call us “the bad side of Mediterranean” (while profiting from our ancient mythology, ofc).
i hate how the lamda symbol is now a nazi thing. stop taking greek things and making them into something evil, vlakes
WHAAAAT??? Lambda is used like this now??
Sadly yes. But I think the Identitarian Movement is the only one that does it. The appropriation of Greek and Norse symbols in European/American Nationalist and Nazi communities is very big thing. So now many Scandinavians and Norse pagans don’t like to wear traditional Norse runes and pendants bc it has been appropriated so much by Nazis that people assume it is just a nazi symbol. I would hate for this to happen for Greek things.
Some European Identitarians, […] adopted the Greek letter lambda (ʌ) as a symbol. Ancient Spartans displayed the letter on their shields at the Battle of Thermopylae in the 5th century B.C (it stood for Lacedaemon, another name for Sparta). White supremacists and other western chauvinists in the United States and Europe place considerable symbolic significance on this ancient battle between the Greeks and Persians, which they view as the defense of Europe from an alien invasion from the Middle East. The group Generation Identity has claimed that the top of the lambda stands for “the metapolitical centre that we want to conquer, with the Identitarian movement as the spearhead.”
