The Republic of North Macedonia in the Constitution guarantees us basic human rights and freedoms and treats all citizens equally, regardless of gender, race, skin color, ethnicity, religious belief, etc. But still, it is only in the Constitution, written on a piece of paper. In real life, we encounter discrimination on various grounds every day,
But one of the communities that live here is a "light motive" for a bunch of offensive and discriminatory vocabulary. You guessed it, didn't you: - The Roma!!!
If we take into account a ton of jokes, jokes on the subject of "Roma", let's start from the speech, more precisely "caricature" in the Macedonian language with a Romani dialect.
Then from pranks and pranks on the topic of "Gypsies", "Roma" of the type: "I'm bored like soap in a gypsy bathroom" or in the style of "I'll fuck you so that the gypsies will seem foreign to you"
The same vocabulary established for decades to frighten small children: "If you are not calm, the gypsy will steal you" or "you will be picked up by an old shop".
Also, a regular dose of misunderstanding or misunderstanding is again the responsibility of the Roma in the style: "Let's haggle like gypsies" or "Let's not do the gypsy...."
There is another bunch of such "low blows" that we see and hear in our everyday life, but we don't pay attention, even sometimes those who say them sound funny and funny.
And have they wondered what the other side feels like? On those skins that are "generalized"?
Do they know that it also psychologically affects the future generations of young Roma who "hide" that they are Roma from those aspects. No, they are not ashamed of their identity or roots, but they are ashamed of being exposed to ridicule, generalization, and discrimination, which further in their lives can only bring them unfair access to society and all the benefits it offers because they are already marked in advance: that the Roma lie (and the state and politicians who make false promises to the citizens are nothing), that the Roma steal (and the biggest criminals who stole millions are at large), that the Roma are dirty (and they are "dirty " they just clean you of trash, garbage, collect your dirty waste and keep your companies, offices, houses impeccably clean), and another small million examples of exactly the opposite belief.
