      I’m not entirely sure, what you’re advocating for.

      There are Turkish supermarkets, restaurants, döner stalls, and barbers all over the place.

      I also know a Turkish electrician, but I’ll go to him when I need an electrician, not when I need a Turk.

      Or ask a European about their feelings on gypsies and watch them pull out some of the darkest shit you’ve ever heard.

          I was originally gonna say Romani but then I remembered this very detail.

          Europe is honestly just as if not more racist than the US

            We just emigrated to the UK and my daughter is having trouble finding friends… she finally met a kid her age and the kid told her that the N-word isn’t offensive in the UK.

            Fucking what? (Yes, I know it is just as offensive here.)

            And we lived in Indiana, the Middle Finger of the South, where the KKK was re-formed in the 1920s.

            So now she has to start all over again finding friends. She was pretty upset and I don’t blame her.

        As long as they aren’t assholes idc, I have had white/white-ish (if you consider Spain generally white, which some do and some don’t lmao) “friends” that are way worse than gypsies or moroccans (which are other ones that are mentioned often).
