why were Irish conisdered black and Finns considered mongol in America?
are americans truly the most racist people on earth?
they are worse than blacks you mother-whoring irish-nigger.
The Irish were never considered black. They were called the "black Irish" because they have pale skin like Western/northern Europe, but a lot have dark hair/eyes. Extreme racists considered Celt-Iberians to be an "African race", but still not black.
And it's not like our racism came from nowhere. We were an Anglo colony. The British hated the Irish and when Malthus came around, his ideas were very appealing to them because it justified making the Irish suffer since they believed it was better for them long term. Which is partially why you got things like the British preventing foreign aid from reaching Ireland during the potato famine.

If the Irish didn't want to be hated so much, they shouldn't have spent so much time drinking and beating their wives.
Also were there even any Finns in the US in the 1800s?

They weren't illegal. They came when Sweden had colonies in North America because Finland was a part of Sweden.

Yes. They helped build the transcontinental railroad. They started in California and built Eastward.

is this why finns and irish were so hated by white amricans?
>>58886545
Our whole history is the previous generation of immigrants hating the next, and then the current generation of immigrants integrates and become productive members of society and hate the new immigrants.

so do americans hate asians and mexicans now?
>>58886732
Mexicans yeah. We're mostly pretty fine with Asians.
>>58886732
Compared to yesteryear, the racism is more tame. But it still exists. And people feel the same about Asians as Canadians do. Ie: fine when they're far away, but cause massive butthurt when they raise property prices and edge out white people in top level corporate/government positions.
