Curious question...

Does the Risitas meme offend you?
Because that is literally what you just described. Spanish language that to those who don't understand it, sounds gibberish and people write completely different English subtitles under it as a meme to joke about completely different topics.

I've had Spanish people tell me they find it hard to follow the joke because they understand what he is actually saying and thus are more tempted to listen to the actual speech rather than read the (fake) subtitles. But to be offended by it? Cmon now grow a backbone...

Nope I would not feel offended if some one used my native lanuage for fun or such. Heck loads of Americans love to poke fun on the sweidsh lanuage.  In the end of the day it´s a lanuage it has no feelings and I could care less what other people thing. 

Man people today are so damn hung up on silly things like yeah they maybe may fun of Italian or Swdish but not youor me in perticular and if we can´t take a joke an laugh at it then why even bother to live ?  

It feels racist you say well honestly today everything is called racest when people don´t like what you just said. Man it has become so damn silly people scream racist to anything they don´t agree with or like. The word racist has lost all it´s meaning. 

people need to chill out there are like 7,9 billion poeple on earth and not every one is out to get you or be racist towards you or hurt your feelings.  honestly 99% of human population is to occupied with their own shit to bother about people they don´t  even know.

I'm also Italian. I'm not sure I understand the question. I don't feel anything at all offensive about the language. 

The only thing I find a little awkward is using my Hashashan (who appears Barberish Islamic)  and i turned him into an Italian assassins creed dude. I even made his skin to match mine.  It still feels wierd when I play him and see natural versions of the character in the game.  In the end its just a game. We're here to have fun.

Nowadays everything is racist, you cant even express what you like anymore.

At least around Americans, has been my experience. For some reason everything you do as European is wrong in their eyes, lul.

Well I do like to have my game voice in JP cuz I like it, and no I don't give a shit if someone find it racist because it's something I like, and it has nothing to do with anyone else.

Stupid bullshit all the time, I'm so tired of it.

Racism is based on exaggerated national pride. If someone is attacking you for being Italian, this could be interpreted as "racism". But when cliches of some nationalities are used for some sort of humour and you're thinking too much about this, you may have some exaggerated national pride. Because situations where this might be meant in a really bad meaning, are really rare.

So if it's not a big lie about Germany in RU-propaganda, I'm absolutely not triggered. I know that national pride is the base of most conflicts in the world and I don't care about why my ancestors built something that makes "my country" worthier than others.

Racism is just an excuse when left-wing politics can't argue (either 99% of the time)
it has no place in your topic, what you are talking about we called it 30 years ago "humor" whether by Italians or other countries

No its plain and simple NOT offensive and under no circumstances racist. We cannot simply call every stupid Joke we dont like racist.

At this point If it isn't or not, most make that way to fit their narrative. It's just the way people are.

It depends on what kind of tone it is used. Is it merely intended as a joke or just something funny, then i see no problem. 

There is a radio host from a local radio and tv station here who use existing characters, such as the muppets or neighbour&neighbour, and then combines it with the local dialect to make funny videos. Grunnen tv it is called. 

But if the tone is used to offend someone and it is presented as a joke, that is not good.  You don't have to make a language ridiculous.
