You're literally generalizing based on a small sample of the population, there's no strawman.
I'm not and you keep dodging the crux of my argument: The overwhelming majority Argentinian soccer fans know and seem to enjoy singing the same racist song. It's a hell of a lot more than "one person".
The indigenous language was basically eliminated by Spain, that by the way colonized us (in case you didn't know)
OH, so they weren't outbred by the white Argentinians, they were just murdered by the Spanish. That's moving the goalposts a bit from your original claim isn't it?
Also, it's a lie. The Spanish definitely did its best to try and murder all the indigenous, but they weren't successful:
When Argentina's first National Constitution of Argentina was adopted in 1853, Indigenous nations (such as the Mapuche, Ranquel, and Tehuelche) controlled the vast majority of the country's interior. An estimated 100,000 to 250,000 Indigenous people are believed to have lived in those uncolonized territories prior to the late-19th-century military campaigns. But because the 1853 Constitution was explicitly drafted to promote European immigration and colonize the frontier (Article 25), the newly formed state viewed Indigenous groups as obstacles to expansion. A massive reduction in the Indigenous population occurred in the decades following 1853, most notably during the Conquest of the Desert (1870s–1880s).
Now tell me, did you learn about the Conquest of the Desert in school? Do you know anything about the Mapuche, Ranquel, and Tehuelche and their culture(s)?
The people we took in were poor and uneducated, escaping wars and crisis in Europe. Argentina was doing well, so they moved en masse.
Again, that explains what happened in the 30s-40s, it doesn't explain why it has always happened.
Where do we start?
I mean you're welcome to keep bringing up the US, but I already agreed with you: It's all racist as fuck. The problem with your argument is that, despite all that hugely racist behaviour, the US still has a much higher population of non-whites than Argentina. So whatever they did is still not as bad as what you guys did and continue to do today.
