PSA: for amerikkkans to bully europoors more effectively online, know your target. Western europeans rarely hate Romani, if they've even heard the term — eastern Europeans hate :romani:. The western Europeans hate Muslims. :eu-cool:
(And the serbs hate the croats hate the bosnians who hate the serbs who hate the bosnians who hate the moldovians... But they all hate the westerners)
Yeah, in Northern Europe they are also widely disliked but its not quite on the level of "calling for an open genocide"
I have heard people in actual real life express the opinion that [CW: Horrible Racism]

Somali and black, brown and Muslim immigration in general has made them appreciate Finnish Romani more. They might be lazy inveterate thieves, but at least they're OUR lazy inveterate thieves!
yeah but a western european liberal knows better to openly claim to hate Roma. They'll support the police beating them etc but they won't say "I hate Roma" and if asked will probably claim to be more tolerant than they are
Basically everyone will start telling you some family legend about how a Romani stole their great grandfather's horse or whatever when you broach the topic of the Romani
I think I have heard several stories of how some guy who's like a plumber went to do work on a Romani's apartment noticed it was absolutely filled with clearly stolen wallets
OR how the big floor length skirt of a traditional Finnish Romani woman's dress has giant pockets hidden in it, specifically to aid in thieving and shoplifting

Just bring up the Roma and see how fast this little euro shit starts not only denying genocide but actively promoting it

Thank you,
I already received a death threat lmfao

Don't dox them, that would be wrong, of course :pika-pickaxe:
In my experience, plenty of Western Europeans also frown on Roma, though it's usually not as rabid as in Eastern Europe.

Isn’t that basically how every wave of European immigrant became coded ‘White American’ in the 20th century US

It's like racism from ignorance and racism that's just pure hate

that or the mythical benefit scrounger that everyone knows someone who has met them

There's A LOT
The denial of women's rights to clothing with pockets is getting absurd
Is that how Rolf's My Horse ritual got started?
It sort of reminds me of Northern vs Southern racism in the US.
This is not true. Mention Roma in the UK or Ireland and everyone turns into a racist, even so-called left wing labour supporters.

Insider tip: Finns, Swedes and presumably Norwegians also have interesting opinions about them as well
Americans would hate the Romani but they think they're fictional characters, like Paul Bunyan.
