Good morning, I saw a general discussion on a forum about whether they are ashamed of the actions of their compatriots. That was interesting to me and I wanted to ask you. Are you ashamed if a fellow Roma steals, kills or rapes? Some say yes, some say no, because you are individuals. I am asked the question, and in more detail, does it matter what nationality we belong to? Are we all connected, and do we all share the same destiny? I think that I am an individual, and that I am not responsible for what others do, I am only responsible for myself, but the rest of the world will not say that. They will always look at me despite the fact that I am Roma. They will copy me from the work of other Roma, and that is why it is important to me, what national affiliation I am and I advocate for a better life for Roma. Now there are Roma who don't stand up for a better life for the group, who don't care or don't feel anything towards other Roma. But my personal experience is that I always share the same fate as the entire Roma people. That's how I learned and that's my experience.
For example, in Italy, two young Roma men were falsely accused of raping a girl. Even then, groups of Italians set fire to the Roma settlement, meaning the entire Roma settlement and the old people, women and children. They didn't distinguish that only those two were doing it, even though they weren't. The same thing can happen to me tomorrow.
As for me personally, in various discussions it would be seen that some people would post a meme of an ugly or poor Roma, even though that Roma is not me or maybe doesn't even look like me, to insult me or say something about Roma to insult me, like "Vido I'm a gypsy shitting on the street" and then expects me to be embarrassed and offended
This is often the case
That's why it's important to organize and unite progress for us and for a better life for the Roma and against discrimination. And not to say hey, I'm not Roma,

Nah we have a long history like thousands of years at being high cultural and civil.

We only mis behave amongst ourselves on political terms.

No, I am only accountable for my own actions. I have no control of what others say or do.
I do not support current Belarusian government but I am not ashamed of being a Belarusian.

Don't let other females yell at you. If you shut them up, they'll learn you're not the person to be yelled at.

Back then I didn't really do that but nowadays I do. I find occasionally though it causes women to be more passive aggressive.

No because their actions don't define who I am

I had a friend tell me something like "I don't really care what ethnicity someone is and I don't look down on any ethnicities, but what you've told me about Eastern Europeans has made me wary of them". I guess I walked right into that one. I feel a tad bit embarrassed to see Eastern European immigrants acting the way they do, but I am secure enough in myself to know this does not reflect on me. I don't blame Western people for thinking we are all stupid alcoholics because 90% of those of us who make it to the West are stupid alcoholics.

I don't care,they hold on their own shoulders and has nothing to do with me.

Un poco, el panameño es muy pendejo y espera que el gobierno o los extranjeros resuelvan sus problemas a causa de la influencia Yankee
Por suerte me parezco más a los dominicanos o cubanos que al panameño promedio
