      Or terminally Italian. Even literal Italians to whom i’ve made a good pineapple pizza for are curious and say “look at that that’s not terrible”. The only ones who protest are the fash-adjacent gastronationalists who tie food that is the product of exchange, trade, and history, to some nativist, traditional knowledge inseparable from the piece of land they’re standing on.

    …these days this might be problematic but I think that China isn’t the aggressor on the world stage but it’s actually because the US is intentionally escalating with them because they want a pretext for starting another major war.

      30%? I give it 90%

      In my experience, people (including me) who say truly problematic stuff usually just say it without any warnings or pretense
