you’re having an aneurysm.

That's a borderline insult, and you reported them for misinformation when what they're saying is how it really was.

I think the confusion is they're talking about what really happened, and you're acting like they're saying it was right.

"White" was expanded in America to include Irish and Italians.

As they lost the majority, they'd let in more groups to maintain the majority. No one is saying that made logical sense, and those lines are arbitrary.

But that is what happened.
