Yea but she's Italian so she's not white, but hey atleast she's not Irish.

/s

It's so stupid and subjective what's white anyways. Like buddy comes from Spain and people consider them white but oh noes they come from somewhere south of the US or in the case or PR in the US and suddenly not white. Jokes on them were all descendants of rapist colonizers 😂

Noooo, Spain isn't considered white to some racists. I'm not sure why that consistently comes up. You're "white" or "one of the good ones" until you're not to racists. They're bullies against others and it's kind of random. If an ICE guy pulls a person from Spain over and they're speaking Spanish, they're going in. Racism is stupid af and can't be predicted. No one is safe.

My grandpa was 100% Spaniard, pale skin and blue eyes.

And? I've seen black people with pale skin and light eyes.

Have you ever seen a wall painted white, and told everyone it's black? Yeah you probably have.
