The phrase jew and cheater have been so interchangeable historically that the word has entered the English language as a verb: he jewed me. Well the jews have jewed us. Too many have come here as false refugees. And they come here to jew us again and rob us blind as they have done in Europe for centuries … They’re jews. And one of the central characteristics of that culture is that their chief economy is theft and begging.”
Roma is a distinct ethnic group. What you some of you folks are saying is no different than the above--simply replace the bold terms with 'gypsies', 'gypsy', 'gypped', 'gyp' where appropriate to see the depths of the racism.
I don't see anyone in here saying anything like that. I think what most people have a problem with is a certain gypsy lifestyle, which many roma people follow. A white person living in the same way would face similar attitudes, while a roma person with a regular job and responsible life, or say a successful roma artist, would not. Some people would hate gypsies regardless though, but fuck those guys.
Yeah criticizing a culture is not racism. The belief that a certain ethnic group is genetically predisposed to bad behavior (as the Nazis believed) is racist. Automatically associating membership in a given cultural group with negative traits is bigotry, but it's not necessarily racism even if the group has a common ethnic background.
