I am not disputing they were treated badly, just saying that they were still considered White and their bad treatment is not comparable to what Blacks and Natives endured. Asians were treated badly too, and not considered White, but they were still not treated anywhere near as bad as Amerindians and Blacks.They were treated like dog shit until they worked themselves up in society. There were no handouts.
This whole notion of some unified White supreme collective is just bogus. Whites have been killing, pillaging, enslaving, and genociding other whites since the migration period, just like every other single phenotype out there throughout history.
Even if you were English or Spanish in the early formation of the US, you had a fucking rough life. The only people who really benefited from any type of privilege were the nobility.
When the US had a Whites only immigration policy, the Irish, Jews, Italians, Greeks weren't excluded. Anti miscegnation laws did not ban these groups from mixing with Anglo Saxons or other Germanics. Sun down laws in the South did not apply to Irish. Levantine peoples (Lebanese, Syrians) also benefitted from White Supremacy to a degree because they were considered White and still are.
