Someone mentioned how homeless people are to americans what roma are to europeans and it stuck with me.

Both groups elicit frothing hatred in bourgeois hateful anglos. 
You're viewing a single thread.
Keep in mind that there are ethnically Romani, and culturally Romani otherwise known as gypsies. Equating them just based on their ancestry, or comparing an entire ethnic group to the homeless is pretty racist.
OP is equating, not the Romani and the homeless, but the way the people around them treat and talk about them.
OP is comparing Americans and Europeans, and their comparable depravity.
How do you feel about the following statement:
Black people are the Amerikkkan version of Brazilian favelados.
See how it's reducing an entire ethnic group to a specific socio-economic and cultural subgroup?
“I hate pistachios” now change the pistachios to Jews, see how that sounds?
I disagree. The assertion isn't that the two groups are the same. It's the mainstream desire to kill them that's the same. Probably, allegedly, maybe...I think so.
Imagine coming up to some educated person with a normal job that looks vaguely like a northern Indian and telling them they're the European equivalent of the homeless in the USA. Or saying something like "black people are the Amerikkkan version of Brazilian favelados".
And I've only seen that desire to kill them with literal Nazis. There are a lot of ways my government is trying to help them break their generational cycle of poverty and suffering. For example in my country universities have separate entrance exams and scholarships for Romani. Hell, it's even pretty much traditional to invite gipsy musicians when celebrating big stuff like weddings and children being born.
That's a slur, you know?
It can be, but it's not really. It's just the name for the culture, while Rom/Roma is the name for the ethnicity and literally means human. There's a reason why they popularised phrases like "gypsies also have souls".
The actual slurs are derived from the word gipsy.
It's still a slur and you should stop saying it. What the fuck
They are now banned, so will not be problem now. Bad manners. Typical european bourgeoisie hog.
Europeans are backwards savages who are incapable of comprehending superior Hexbear thought
Many people are saying this
