I’ve been bullied by a Roma student. Yet I don’t blame the entire ethnic group for that you donkey.

But sure, I guess that’s all hearsay.

Are you sorry for the Roma that you generalize against, when they suffer the effects of such stereotyping?

This is exactly how racist people talk about African Americans…

It’s genuinely frightening to me that so much European rhetoric against Roma people sounds like 1950s US-era rhetoric against desegregation. Like the US is incredibly racist, and Europeans still somehow find ways to shock me over how they talk about an entire ethnic group.

It gets easier of course when they don’t focus on the racial aspect but instead pick some other factor: we need to steal their children because they are poor, these children deserve better!
