Off-topic from 'good and bad wars' thread: are Gypsies more hated in Serbia or the UK?

[Anthony PV]

My views are not remotely eugenist or fascistic fyi.

Meh, these guys judge peoples and races. You judge peoples and races.

either he's embellishing or he's misinterpreting banter. british people love making fun of people for perceived national flaws. no one here thinks twice about serbia unless we play you at football.

unless you think we also hate the germans? making fun of them for WWII is essentially a national pastime

serbia is irrelevant and no one cares about it.

You don't speak for me or my life experiences so do not bother trying; I have had many rough experiences from native British + Muslim Pakistanis based on my apparent inborn hatred as an ethnic Serb, and have dealt with shit my whole life, one experience included a boss of mine literally getting in my face and telling me "Serbs caused all the troubles in Yugoslavia" which certainly was not "banter" and was unneccesary especially as I never talk politics IRL, I am not an alien from outer space I know what banter is. Most Brits don't know about Serbs but the ones who do despise us, period. The whole point of that comment was a response to Jana who claimed that Britain was pro Serbia and anti Croatia, which is lunacy since Britain has politically always opposed Serbia's interests and has always supported Croatia's; furthermore, British people generally know about Croatia and see it as a nice holiday destination; the same cannot be said for Serbia.

Please never try to speak about me on an issue you know nothing about, I am the only person here fully qualified to talk on this issue, it would be like me telling you, a Jew what your experiences are in regards to how British people perceive you. Something I would never do.

In regards to the OP (and I honestly don't know why my posts were copied over here, since I didn't speak about gypsies) I'd say gypsies are much more hated in Britain. Bare in mind most gypsies are Irish Travelers, Roma are very few in number, so I include the former group when I say "gypsies"

Longbowman you are a good guy and i respect you but there was a video of ukip leader farage going to bulgaria to ask roma if they will come to uk and they throw a party for him. he didnt asked bulgarians but roma. and lily said too that she hates roma but not romanians or bulgarians. there have been brits before here who bullied me as much as foreigner did. i only tell from my own experience not about roma in general since you specifically adressed me that serbs see me as lesser and other. ta serbs did said im not serb but they said i can be citizen and live there they didnt bullied me in britain they wouldnt consider me english either if im mixed race some serbs on a other forum did but so did muslims and one austrian guy and some croats on this other forum i speak only from my experience but probably british are less anticiganist going by your stastic

The question is misleading as we hardly have any Roma in Britain, it's like asking who hates Mexicans more, people in Texas or people in Iceland. If you include Irish Travelers as Gypsies (which is what most in Britain mean when they say gypsies) the question is more fair.

Longbowman, why did you thumb down my post about ww2 not having any good side and moved it here? Isn't it true that the Allies commited those war crimes and gave Eastern Europe and Eastern Germany to the evil madman Stalin, who was no better than Hitler? How is that a "good side"?

back in 99 a boss of my dad told him that he must work more to pay off the invisible bomber which the serbs shot down. do you remember the serbs shot down the invisible bomber or one of them, and the boss told my dad he now must pay it and work more. my dad never talked about politics though.

there are some roma and they hate them. even those small numbers are enough to be hated. they also say there are "more then thought and too many" and thats why brexit happened basically. i dont blame them as certain parts of the roma population and many leave a very bad impression just like in pensylvania in the US. I can understand the anti-roma bias.

1) there was definitely a clear 'better side' if we divide it into Axis and Allies
2) I would divide 'Allies' into east and west and the Western Allies were the good side, even if they did commit a couple of war crimes here and there. Goodness is relative.

I moved your post by mistake along with the off-topic ones, sorry.
