So is Zohran’s “hate” just, like… winning the primary?
we will not be mocked
yea I bet this will help with that lol
*thousands of people dined
From their website:
Despite our contributions; the very culture we celebrate and our proud heritage is under attack. The Italian-American Civil Rights League (“IACRL”) celebrates our culture, while vehemently defending our history. This means celebrating Christopher Columbus, who discovered America and vowing to oppose those seeking to destroy his name and reputation.
Was it really Columbus that was there first or is it someone else that had their culture erased and their history rewritten?
lol
- he was working for the spaniards
- italy didn’t even exist as a country
- there were a bunch of people already living there
- he wasn’t even the first euro to “discover” it, the vikings got there like 500 years before
italian-am*rican hero
Americans have no conception of anything outside of the modern nation-state framework. How else are they supposed to do their blood quantum calculations to figure out that they’re 2.5% Italian 4.2% French 6.8% Irish and 0.2% Cherokee Princess?
he wasn’t even the first euro to “discover” it, the vikings got there like 500 years before
The anime Vinland Saga is a hate crime against Italians
Columbus sure didn’t discover america but he sure was the first Italian to be celebrated by WASPs
Still waiting to hear who came over from North America and discovered Europe. Am I living on an undiscovered continent still?
I thought Columbus was from Ohio
You tell em Furio
Stupid-a fuckin’ game ⛳
That handle lmao
Where can I get the pizza shirt 👀
Eeyyy I’m protestin here!
i genuinely fail to understand the columbus crew, like zionists get stolen land out of blatantly supporting genocide, idk wtf anyone gains from dying on a hill for that one guy who was so shit at navigating he thought he was on a different continent and then proceeded to kill and enslave thousands and kickstart the largest genocide in human history. i guess a political bloc for the organizers?
Columbus was diefied for the sake of italian-american pride. Change Columbus day to “Italian-American day” and I bet they stop caring about him in less than 10 years.
there has to be another italian guy to deify in place of columbus
Columbo obviously
thats already a god
“Just one more thing.” That’s when you knew he got 'em.
The good Colombo.
Sacco and Vanzetti are right there
Garibaldi would be a good choice too
Giuseppe Garibaldi, easy, and he is actually Italian unlike Columbus (Genoese is not Italian)
two
Knew immediately who you were talking about before I clicked the link lol
Chef Boyardee
St Sebastian. He’s not American but…
- Italian
- Actually represents the evils of persecution
- cute twink
cute twink
i’m sold
they should. there’s a puerto rican day, there’s a dominican day, why not italian too?
Columbus Day was given to Italian Americans after 11 were lynched in a New Orleans Riot
Several of the victims were repeatedly shot and several others were hanged, their bodies grossly put on display in the aftermath. Eleven men were lynched while the rest of the people in the prison managed to hide or escape. None of the men who were lynched were found guilty of being involved in Hennessy’s murder.
…
The violent lynching strained international relations between the U.S. and Italian governments, with Italy removing their U.S. ambassador from Washington, D.C. To appease the Italian government and to gain the vote of Italian Americans, U.S. president Benjamin Harrison proclaimed the first nationally-recognized Columbus Day celebration to be a one-time celebration on Oct. 21, 1892.
There’s a pretty good movie about that
Is it The Godfather
Yeah Wilfried Nancy has the Crew playing some of the most dynamic football MLS has ever seen. Even other coaches in the league struggle to adjust for them which is why they’ve recently won the MLS cup and reached the champions league final the following year.
me when there’s no funny football emotes to express me lmao at finding out columbus crew is a MLS team
This comment is funny because “Columbus Crew” is the name of the MLS team from Columbus, Ohio.
shit that is really funny
Dude was jailed in fucking Spain for his egregious crimes, which is notable because Spain would continue to do some of the worst things ever done and they still locked him up for it.
Plus isn’t it not certain he was actually Italian?
at this point he’s an honorary italian, they can claim him if they want lmao
he was a fuckwit who got extremely lucky once, landed in the caribbean, wrote down that the people he found there were the nicest, most hospitable and friendly people he’d ever met, and then immediately started enslaving and murdering them.
truly someone to look up to.
Celebrating Christopher Columbus to honor Italian American heritage is like celebrating Hitler to honor German American heritage.
hey don’t give them ideas
hahahahahahaha nobody gives a fuck about hating Italians, it’s not the 1890s.
Crackers will find any conceivable way to pretend to be oppressed. They are also obsessed with their blood quantum ancestry calculations so they can pretend to be from whatever flavor of European nation-state is trendy right now
lmao scrolling through the poster until you’re met with israeli flags instead of italian ones is so goofy. not even hiding it
You dislike Columbus because he’s Italian, right?The Italian-American Civil Rights League (IACRL) was originally formed as a political advocacy group created in New York City in April 1970. William Santoro, a defense attorney that represented many Colombo crime family figures, was responsible for the legal work that incorporated the league. Its stated goal was to combat pejorative stereotypes about Italian-Americans, but in actuality, it operated as a public relations firm to deny the existence of the American Mafia and improve the image of mobsters. In 2023, a new organization formed with the same name, but with no connection to the original IACRL. [1] [2]
