''Why do people hate Gypsies?'' asks a brazilian on /r/Brasil. Drama on a brazilian subreddit about people from fricking Europe? It's more likely than you think.

So here's the thing. /r/Brasil, as usually on reddit, is ridiculously leftist. Since that british BIPOC got killed here in the Amazon our banner has been a red banner with the following phrase: ''Ecology without class struggle is gardening.'' That should tell you a bit about the place.

As most leftists places usually are, /r/Brasil is full of infighting and general seething, but we mostly keep to our domestic affairs, so while it's a good piece of drama it's usually hard to contextualize even for people who might know Portuguese as a second language.

And of course, i'm not going to translate all the good drama threads, they easily reach 500+ comments and usually the comments are :#marseylongpost:

However, this drama was so funny I just couldn't not share. I'm still not going to translate shit, i'll just hope Google Translator does a good job.

Anyway, here's the thread.

https://www-unddit-com.translate.goog/r/brasil/comments/10vztng/vejo_muitas_pessoas_com_falas_preconceituosas/?_x_tr_sl=pt&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=pt-BR&_x_tr_pto=wapp

It's so fricking funny seeing people walk on eggshells and STILL get jannied. As you can (probably) see, some of the jannied comments aren't even bad, by any stretch of imagination. Still jannied. Afaik Gypsies turn any European into a Mini Hitler. Seems the hate for Gypsies not only is warranted but it's also something that transcends ideology. We don't have much contact with gypsies here in brazil, so it's not widespread hate as in Europe. But it seems that people that had contacts with Gypsies... didn't like it :marseylaugh:

The gypsy thing doesn't make sense for non-europeans because it is a very loose form of "racism"

Gypsies aren't an ethnicity. If they just lived in a house and got a job you wouldn't be able to tell they were gypsies, they'd just look like every other frog or kraut or hard-working American or whatever

That means that either you haven't met a gypsy and so don't have any opinion on them based on real-world interaction, or you have met a gypsy and you know you have because they have attempted to do some sort of crime on you, or have destroyed a pub you were in, or burned a car in your yard, or ripped the tiles off your roof

It's like asking people if they have a bad opinion of burglars. Gypsy is a behaviour, not a race

You're talking out of your butt, if you ever saw one in person you'd know that they stand out. They stand out by their behavior, by their language, by their clothes. They're brown for Christ's sake! Similarly if you had met one you'd understand why they are universally hated in Europe. One struggle

our equivalent of gypsies is irish travellers which is basically the same thing, but genetically they're just the same as everyone else. not all gypsies are brown either, like there's no genetic component here it's just cultural and they could just...stop doing this shit

wrong, in the Uk for example they are irish white, there are also many white gypsies in the rest of europe because they frequently kidnap native children and raise them as gypsies. And in southern europe there are also brown-ish natives there that have same color as gypsies but arent gypsies.

Yeah, the Romani wereβ€”but people mix quite a bit in 1020 years, most :marseytunaktunak: and :marseymayo: are descended from the Yamanya culture about 5000 years ago.

Around the year 1000, an event in northern India, about the time of Muslim invaders, likely triggered the Roma’s mass exodus. The precise event is still unknown, but the possible reasons include a conflict that resulted in their persecution, a natural disaster, or even recruitment into a mercenary military. The Roma people journeyed towards the Caucasus and China, as well as through the Middle East and Greece towards the Balkans; they covered all corners of today's Central and Western Europe by the end of the 16th century. Romanis typically traveled in patriarchal extended families, consisting of up to hundreds of people.

tl;dr they got kicked the frick out of India

According to a 2012 genomic study, the Romani reached the Balkans as early as the 12th century.[116] A document of 1068, describing an event in Constantinople, mentions "Atsingani", probably referring to Romani

ALSO

Although 1385 marks the first recorded transaction for a Romani slave in Wallachia, they were issued safe conduct by Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund in 1417. Romanis were ordered expelled from the Meissen region of Germany in 1416, Lucerne in 1471, Milan in 1493, France in 1504, Catalonia in 1512, Sweden in 1525, England in 1530 (see Egyptians Act 1530), and Denmark in 1536. From 1510 onwards, any Romani found in Switzerland were to be executed; while in England (beginning in 1554) and Denmark (beginning of 1589) any Romani which did not leave within a month were to be executed. Portugal began deportations of Romanis to its colonies in 1538

in the UK the most common kind of gypsy is irish travellers who are literally just the same genetically as everyone else, like there's zero "race" element it's purely cultural. it's like if you decided to start a drug gang with your friends then claimed it was a vibrant alternative nomadic lifestyle

So here's the thing. /r/Brasil, as usually on reddit, is ridiculously leftist.

Lmao yeah up until very recently /r/Brasil was pro-Russia (not a lot anymore since an UwU trans lives matter! OwO incel supporting Wagner is very awkward), whereas the Brazilian rightoid sub, /r/brasilivre is pro-Ukraine, this is a carryover from the Cold War era when Leftoid movements in Latrine AmeriKKKa were propped up by the USSR, and how Russia still claims to be against AmeriKKKan Imperialism and whitewash the legacy of the USSR, and our rightoids hate Russia since they have close relations with the Satan incarnates of Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, China, North Korea, et all.

Please be aware that /r/Brasil is NOT INDICATIVE of what actual brazilians think.

99% of brazilians are either pro-ukraine or don't think much about it.

Lefties sneed about US imperialism or whatever but only online and in their universirty masturbation groups, because they know they'll get lynched if they defend the fricking russians

They are a vocal minority, that's all

The current Brazilian government is neutral, in President Lula's own words in a meeting with the German chancellor: "Today, I have more clarity on the reason for the war. I think that Russia made a classic mistake of invading another country's territory, therefore Russia is wrong, but I still think that when one doesn't want to, two don't fight."

Nibba just look at the countries who are explicitly supporting Russia or who are at least sympathetic to them - Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, China, North Korea, Syria, Central African Republic, South Africa, Zimbabwe, most African countries, out of all of them, Hungary, Serbia, and India (who are only marginally supporting Russia, not outright) are the only rightoid countries who are teaming up with the Cuban, Venezuelan, and African Commies in a spergtastic match of geopolitical autism.

It's funny about how as recently as 2021, rightards and wignats everywhere were using the Holodomor as the peak example of Bolshevik atrocities against Ukrainian mayos, and how the ANC is a black terrorist commie organization genociding mayos and boers from the based Apartheid, but now since the globohomo recognizes the Holodomor, and the ANC is now in buddies with Russia, now they are either in total silence, or did a 360 about it.

Communism is the most evil globohomo ideology in existence, but at the same time the USSR was based and the same Leftoid African countries who are genociding mayos are fighting against globohomo? :marseythonk:

I kinda know just by instinct what threads are gonna be absolute heaps of dung. I usually avoid those and open some that may have people going against the NPC crowd.

But sometimes, when it's an obvious leftie L, it's kinda funny to see the heights they'll go to cope. This one is the best example from recent memory.

https://old.reddit.com/r/brasil/comments/10v4kjy/escolheram_assassinar_diz_fam%C3%ADlia_de_jovem_morto/?sort=controversial

Here the coping lefties are the minority and it's ridiculously funny to see how they despair when the circlejerk is broken.

When Lula says some dumb stuff threads tend to be 50/50

But yeah. Chemo. No self respecting person would browse /r/Brasil (or /r/Brasilivire for that matter) unironically. The non political threads are good though, even if some r-slurred BIPOC comes once in a while to push politics in absolutely non-political topics. :marseyeyeroll:

In the early 2000s there were a bunch of gypsies over in my city, they just begged constantly and everyone spoke of them stealing but I never experienced or knew someone with whom it happened.

By the early 2010s they were all gone, no idea what happened to them, don't care either.
