It seems like I'm always seeing these dudes all over YouTube doing interviews these days, but people don't keep the same energy for them as they do others. I wonder why that it? Is it cultural? 
Why is it that no one ever has energy for these Mafia dudes that committed all these murders?

Not sure if this is still the case, but a better question is why hip hop culture used to lionize these racist degenrates en masse.

Are Italian American teens and men trying to be like them, or pretending to be like them? Are they being incorporated in white music? Are white people screaming “free that man” when they get locked up?

Answer the question. I couldn't care less why white America would want to clean up the image of white criminals. In fact, the answer is pretty damn obvious.
However, why the fukk would an industry that's overwhelmingly Black praise people who unabashedly called Black people slurs (in both real life and media depicting Italian mafia) and flood Black neighborhoods with drugs and other contraband in their lyrics?
Let's not try to turn a blind eye to that BS just to shield our own from deserved criticism. That's an approach drenched in cowardice.

They are consuming content from them in large numbers and making media about them. It's no different.

Pooping on your head :umad:
If Black gangsters like Alpo, Wayne Perry, etc available to get interviewed they would be.
Remember hood 2 hood DVD, Don Diva magazine, etc. Black gangsters get idolized just as much as CAC ones do in my observation

Who do you think you're fooling, trying to rebuild your image with this shameless ass dap fishing, you c00n.
You just had the pom poms out for Drake, defending his honor, after he sued for defamation over rap music.

Italian kids aren't dieing at an alarming rate
You're asking why mafians are idolized? Because majority of earth population are dumbasses and quite a lot of them admire stupidity like criminals and their dangerous life.
There is that Mike Franzese guy who keeps spamming mafia themed videos all over the internet. He's a scumbag who destroyed lives before but now he makes videos for idiots that glamorize that life.

It’s very different. Consuming content, and trying to emulate them are two different things. Italian Americans don’t like the mafia image. They know it makes them look bad. If they are involved, they keep it on the low. They don’t brag about it. Name a current white celebrity who is vocal and open about being involved in organized crime.
See what I mean.
Breh started the response with, “I don’t know if this is still the case”
nikka don’t even know what the fukk he talking about, just on autoc00n.
Media and pop culture wise the mafia and crackers playing gangster games have, and will always
have a level of romanticism that black gangsters/criminals won’t get. Thats because the country is racist and white people control the media and shape they racist narratives. Then you got black people, who wanna be white, who talk down on black people for sport and have no identity showing this same bias. This is because they soft and docile.
