ATR: Why have multinationals become Social Justice Warriors?
By the way, I don't remember my Irish Catholic grandmother ever mentioning stories about "Irish Need Not Apply."
And she was a Worden. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lorimer_Worden
John Lorimer Worden (March 12, 1818 – October 19, 1897) was a U.S. Navy officer in the American Civil War, who took part in the Battle of Hampton Roads, the first-ever engagement between ironclad steamships at Hampton Roads, Virginia, on 9 March 1862..

That No Irish Need Apply has been studied extensively. If it did occur it was not as widespread as believed or maybe did not occur at all.
ReplyDeleteThat is part of the immigrant experience so they say. My-people-came-here-and-were-badly-mistreated-but-we-overcame-all-obstacles. We Italian/Jew/Irish/. Etc.
ReplyDeleteHis faulty slogan:
ReplyDelete"Because it doesn't matter where we come from. It matters what we're made of."
He almost has it right.Closer to the truth is:"Where we come from,dictates,in large part,to what we're made of."
Not all people--in all parts of the world act the same.Cultural influences--for hundreds of years--and inborn tendencies by race,along with religion cannot be whimsically dismissed.Muslims are Muslims--Mex are Mex,blacks are blacks.There differences in ethnicities in whites (between Dutch,Poles,Germans,Italians,French and Jews)as well--but not as much as what separates whites from the rest of the world.
These commercials,and the philosophy behind them--that all migrants are equal--is pie in the sky idiocy--or a phony attempt at liberalism for the all mighty buck.

It's a propaganda piece, just like all Modelo "commercials" are. The Irish were treated like God-awful shit when they floated into New York. They weren't given "automatic" low or no interest loans, top quality housing discounted upwards of 80%, SNAP, free medical/ dental, etc. Yes. We all have OUR OWN IMMIGRANT STORY. But 95% of them aren't as "rosy" as the one's happening in the last 10 years !!!!!!
