Exactly, tell the Germans how they should support their local businesses run by the Turkish people so that they can start making their economy and society more inclusive which benefits everybody, and see how the Germans will laugh you out of the door.
At least in certain countries like the America people can talk about trying to help racial minorities without getting ridiculed.
While the EU acts more like one country than the US we are not a single country. So it vastly differentiates from country to country.
Asking people about gypsies will either bring out the worst or they will correct you and say that calling them Gypsies is like calling a black person Niger. Romani is the preferred term btw.
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.
I still love how everyone acts like America is the only racist country on the planet.
Can’t say I’ve ever seen people do that

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.

What’s really fun is that “gypsys” can refer to two entirely different groups of people, both hated out of pure bigotry.

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
