And folks, my father-in-law was very strange by American standards. Sure, he did the normal weird dad stuff like go to the hardware store to buy an outdoor shed, look at the prices, and decide "I can do it myself for cheaper." But he also did weird foreigner stuff like make an "ice cream sandwich" using two pieces of bread. So, naturally, his clientele was mostly "people who did not speak English." I can only imagine he must have been the weird guy in the office.

I am struggling to understand if the implication here is that this dude was making sopping wet and leaking ice cream sandwiches in front of his clientele, or what?

If he's tormenting his family privately with this behavior, then what does it matter? If he's doing it in front of prospective home buyers, then what's capitalism got to do with anything?

I saw that as one of those Resetera-isms where they think they're the enlightened good guys but say some ignorant, retarded shit.  Nobody in Sicily I ever met did that, but he just assumed  because he was some backward Sicilian that he must be doing dumb shit like putting icecream on whitebread instead of looking at him as an individual who does dumb shit.  "He did weird foreigner stuff like..".   Or like being able to succeed and compete in a capitalist system like all the other "normal" people.  They do this with blacks too - saying capitalism is incompatible with the entire race.   These people, lol.
