I'm italian from a family so italian we're all walking stereotypes, and pinapple+black olive is my favorate pizza combination.

You always know when someone says something like "we're so Italian we..." that they're definitely not from Italy

I always loved hearing stories from kids that spoke Italian at home in NJ who then went to Italy to discover the 1850s era Sicilian they actually spoke was nothing like modern Italian.

But seriously who started all this topping gatekeeping, pizza has spread all over the world with variations evrywhere.
