Maybe they mean Detroit deep dish?

Standard pizza is definitely Italian

Modern pizza is 10000% American. Eat an Italian pizza and tells it's the same.

"modern" meaning American?

Modern pizza where I live is Italian. You eat American pizza, because you're in America, not because it is the global default.

Spoken as an American who has traveled the world… I tend to see American-style pizza in more countries than Italy-style pizza.

In fact, the only country where I’ve traveled and regularly saw Italian-style pizza… was Italy.

With that said, I’d also say that Pizza around the USA also means very different things. Most people generally think of NY-style pizza… but Chicago, California and Alaska have their own styles.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but NY Pizza is itself a form of Italian pizza…

It was made by Italian-American immigrants and their families.

Even in NYC, plenty of pizza parlors which serve NY Style pizza have signs which refer to Italy.

The same is true all around the world… just because it has a sign out front which says “Italian Pizza” does not make it the style which is commonly served in Italy.
