Can I shock you? I like gypsies. {Spoiler}I’m joking of course. The legend says that they believe they're entitled to steal from non-Gypsies who they call gadjo. The myth says that God allows them to steal food and other necessities because a Gypsy had swallowed a nail intended for the crucifixion of Jesus (ref. Sutherland, A., 1975. Gypsies: The Hidden Americans. New York: The Free Press.). But it's not usually within their morale to commit felonies like rape, robbery and murder.

This is exactly what I was saying to ofunknownorigins the other day. This has been happening in every European country! But in Italy Meloni has been useless. I don't know how Sweden has panned out like.

Swedish racism? Who knew? Swedes can be racist, no denying that, but I think the view of Gypsies or Finnish Gypsies far transcends that. I have never experienced a group so dehumanized as them. It's not exclusive to Swedes but many Finns feel the same. Well, it seems to be a finished chapter in history for the Swedes anyway as they're now returning to Finland. Are you talking about the Sami? They’re indigenous to Finland and Sweden.

Are you talking about the Sami? They’re indigenous to Finland and Sweden. No, I'm talking about Finnish Romanis (Kale) aka Gypsies who come from Finland. Many of them have a Swedish surname, although often kind of unique names that can be told apart from regular Swedish family names if you're educated in the field, so to speak. Because of this and that Sweden was more open-minded than Finland, it was common to move to Sweden just like many ethnic Finns and Swedish Finns did for work in the 1960's and 1970's. But now it's said that the Kale are moving back home. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnish_Kale

Finnish Gypsies were traditionally the most disliked and despised group in Sweden, being viewed as thieves the whole bunch of them. I guess the rivalry from newcoming groups of migrants was too much. Swedish racism? Who knew? Maybe if they stopped making stealing their way of life in a couple of generations they would no longer be discriminated against.

Is it because of immigration? Yes as well.
However, Gypsies have caused a lot of troubles here therefore many people are sick of them and it has contributed a lot to this increase as well.
And of course, corrupt politicians , corruption in general, etc.
Let’s be real though. The Mooretuguese are basically North Africans. What right do they have to complain about the Romani?

Every right.
It was the Romans that drove the Moors out of Africa and enslaved them to the English, who forced them to work in the port mines for the benefit of the British pissocracy

I mean I've been called out for a calling Zelensky a "gypsy beggar", but I meant "gypsy" in a generic sense.
I remember discussing the Roma people many times over the years on these forums, and the racism on this thread is palpable. Just sayin'.

I’m hardly a liberal. I’ve always been right wing on immigration and crime.

Dunno. Can never make my mind up whether positive discrimination, for instance, is a good or bad thing.
