      That kinda racism stuck around for a while. Italians were discriminated against in the USA until maybe until WW2?

          I once heard someone say the southern Spaniards were basically like the Turks because like the Turks they were a combination of the Roman empire and the middle east and that's why Franco happened because the Italian side is culturally inclined to fascism or something and the middle eastern side is culturally inclined to authoritarian strong men
