Rome, April 3rd – The Italian newspaper Il realizzato Quotidiano recently published an article, titled “Ethnic Replacement Only Happens with ‘M Jobs’ – As You Defined Them”, which claimed that Italians refuse to do menial jobs and therefore, are responsible for the so-called “ethnic replacement” in the country.
The article, written by a contributor of the newspaper, has sparked controversy and backlash from various sources, as it promotes dangerous and discriminatory rhetoric towards immigrants and perpetuates the idea of a “replacement” of Italians with foreign workers.
First of all, let’s clarify what is meant by “ethnic replacement”. The term has been widely used by far-right groups and individuals to describe the demographic changes happening in Europe, where the percentage of immigrants has increased in recent years. These groups often claim that this is a deliberate plan to replace the native population with immigrants, in a process called “ethnic replacement” or “white genocide”. However, this theory has been debunked multiple times, with studies showing that immigration is not the main factor in demographic changes and that the increase in diversity is a natural result of globalization and other social factors.
Now, back to Il realizzato Quotidiano’s article. The author, in a delusional and inflammatory manner, accuses Italians of refusing to do “M jobs” (menial jobs) and instead leaving them to immigrants. The article goes on to say that, by doing so, Italians are willingly handing over their own country to foreigners.
This kind of rhetoric is not only false but also dangerous. It perpetuates the idea that immigrants are a threat to the Italian population and that they are taking away jobs from Italians. However, the reality is quite different.
Italy, like many other European countries, has an aging population and a declining birth rate. This means that there are fewer young people entering the workforce, while the number of retirees is increasing. As a result, there is a shortage of workers in certain sectors, such as agriculture, hospitality, and personal care. Immigrants often fill these gaps, as they are willing to do these jobs that are essential for the functioning of the country.
Moreover, to say that Italians refuse to do menial jobs is simply not true. Many Italians work in these sectors, but the problem is that these jobs are often poorly paid and have long working hours. This is not a matter of preference, but rather a consequence of an unfair and exploitative labor market.
It is also important to highlight that immigrants contribute greatly to the Italian economy. They pay taxes, create businesses, and bring diversity and cultural enrichment to the country. They are not parasites, as the article suggests, but valuable members of Italian society.
In conclusion, Il realizzato Quotidiano’s article promoting the idea of “ethnic replacement” is not only baseless but also harmful. It spreads fear and hatred towards immigrants, while ignoring the real reasons behind demographic changes in Italy. It is time to move away from this divisive and discriminatory rhetoric and embrace diversity and inclusion. After all, as the saying goes, “unity in diversity” is what makes a country truly great.
