Wise up, Mr. white wannabe. Once Trump eliminates the black and brown people, he will be coming for you Guido brown, off-white people next. You can kiss his ass as he puts you on a slow boat back to Africa.
KJ has now officially shown his true colors as a RACIST. And he is also pushing a false narrative that Italians descend from Africans. It is well known in DNA studies that Italians are descendents of eastern and western Europeans. Alt-left KJ also pushes the false narrative that Trump is racist. Trump has done far more for blacks than any other president before him.
We don't call him KJocchio for nothing.
Mickey's skipping some history here.
Actually, for most of U.S. history, Americans treated Italians as a subset of African-Americans because Italians originally took similar jobs, had similar skills, and were defined as BEHAVING like African-Americans.
A friend of mine is a young, independent filmmaker specializing in "mob movies." I didn't really understand some of the scenes he wrote where Italian fathers/uncles would go off because a young Italian guy had a black woman in their house or dated a black woman. Eventually, I read up on it a bit. So the issue was that Italians spent so much time lumped with African-Americans that they overreacted to Italians who fraternized with African-Americans.
It turns out that KJ is using somewhat intellectually sophisticated, ironic posts here, by applying the bigotry imposed on Italians most of American history to poke fun at "Singer's" current bigotry. The Italian is guilty of doing what other people did to Italians for most of U.S. existence. And "Singer" aims his bigotry at African-Americans, who Italians were directly lumped with.
This was a fascinating article.

Oh yeah, I still don't know what BBC is -- I thought it was British Broadcasting Company. The Boz is educating me. I'll look it up. I thought I lived a hip, progressive life. Nothing like The Boz, I guess.
