I'm over 70 and growing up Irish in a strongly Italian/Polish Chicago neighborhood, this is so true. The immigrant parent or grandparent differentiating Sicilians or Corsicans (yes, French, I know) from "real Italians" (They are so dark!) And the kids mostly shaking their heads.

Must be an equity vulture/billionaire tech bro thing, trying to figure out a way to monetize (or similar value) something that hasn't been before and shouldn't be. Hey, let's ignore the law and link databases together with zero understanding of either nor the reliability of any "product".

Look down on kids because you don't like something about them, parents or food? Encourage friends to beat up kids they don't like? You raising your kids that way? Did your momma raise you that way? Does your spouse behave that way? If not, why you looking the other way when Trump behaves like that?
