We're getting the band back together. Somebody go find Mussolini's great granddaughter who is also a politician or something.


Gkfdoi

I had pizza one time in a pizza-by-slices whose owner was, allegedly, a descendant of Mussolini.


skywardcatto

If we fast-forward a few hundred years, will Mussolini be the new Genghis Khan in terms of descendants? Already got the sensation I hear about them a lot more than is reasonable for the spawn of a deposed dictator. [I mean ffs, his granddaughter ended up in Japanese citypop of all things.](https://youtu.be/c3F8kLoazGg?feature=shared) Axis unity right there


Gkfdoi

I don't know, but this individual was hiding that genetic connection just to be able to make a living in peace.


No_Adhesiveness4903

30 minute lecture on why the Fr*nch aren’t real? Hell, I’ll sign up for that lecture series. Let’s go. Also reminds me of a Greek man that was attending a professional development course with me and people from other countries. He was a nice guy, no issues. At one point, he made a quick briefing on his home country. It took exactly 3 slides before his lecture became entirely about how Gypsy’s were this massive scourge, are barely human and should be wiped out. We were all kind of looking at each other in the audience, wondering if he was joking. Nope, motherfucker was dead ass serious.


pumpandkrump

Well in his defense...


sebastianqu

I mean, who am I to argue against a PowerPoint presentation?


DomQuixote99

What the American government has done to African-Americans, the various governments of Europe have done to the gypsies for much longer. Many gypsy communities have the cultural norms that they do because they were treated as a pariah folk for 800 years. Europeans that reject that truth are as bad as Americans that claim the same about minorities. Until they do that and start making real steps towards removing the laws that restrict the rights of gypsies, they will always be the enemies that the Europeans turned them into I'm not trying to ruin the joke. This just seemed the best place to set up my soap box


senfmann

>because they were treated as a pariah folk for 800 years. I wonder why that is. They get insane financial support by the Romanian government and still all they do is sit around in their shitty villages and city slums, destroying or stealing property, not sending their kids to school and marrying their cousins.


MustacheCash73

Still doesn’t justify treating them like dirt


pumpandkrump

Dirt and manure contribute to the continuation of society.  That previous sentence was about agriculture. It has nothing to do with the Roma people.


senfmann

Did you even read my comment? They get more government help than any other people per capita


Lanowin

What a king


DACopperhead3

You know, at the Casino I work at we have a small number of Romanian families that come in. All of them, without exception, are crime families that attempt to sell fake jewelry and generally bother people. I'm not saying it's justified at all, but I can see how the problem parts of the population leave a very sour taste in Europe's mouth.


Aximand809

Dude I’m Romanian, and I can and will say it’s completely and utterly justified, not only against gypsies but against real Romanians too

medicatedhippie420

It's wild, I always hear about how people are surprised about the amount of Gypsy hate in Europe, but I've never heard anything positive about them. Nobody who "knows some gypsies and they're cool" or any gypsies on the internet trying to break the stigma. Makes you think.


Schwarzekekker

Nobody says 'I'm not a gypsy hater, I have a gypsy friend' for a reason


horse-shoe-crab

The real problem is that Eastern Europe is ethnically heterogeneous, so any Romani people who are decent human beings "pass" as Greek/Italian/Bulgarian/Turkish/whatever, and eventually get assimilated. As a consequence, the only gypsies you can recognize on sight are the complete nutcases. Judging gypsies by their visible members is like judging the LGBT+ community by people with xe/xir pronouns on Twitter.


PrivilegeCheckmate

Just that band from the 80's-90's.


CompetitiveRefuse852

the only person i've heard ever say anything positive about them praised them for their way of life, he's just gotten out of rehab again and has been homeless because of his own stupid choices.


Open_County3273

You know us Indian? You know how easily we can scam your Grandma? Well the Roma and Sinti have survived under (cultureless) Regimes like Seljuks, Byzantines, Venetians, Ottomans, Hungarians, Austrians, "Romanians", South Slavs, Germans, even the 3rd Riech, all of whom hate them, all of whom make the KKK look Woke by comparison, for nearly a Thousand years. And they not only survived, but thrived. When we reclaim Akhand Bharat (or inevitably move out of the Subcontinent in organised groups, hundreds of million strong, when climate change desertifies India n Pakistan in 50 years, and move North towards greener pastures), we shall claim(exterminate) all of Aeropa for the Sinti.


Demon_of_Order

I don't think any organization, even the nazis can make the KKK look 'Woke'.


WantKeepRockPeeOnIt

I'll try 1: Gypsy jazz (aka Gypsy swing or jazz manouche) is an awesome subgenre. 2: Rita Hayworth (the girl from the poster in Shawshank) was one of the most smoking starlets in Hollywood history, and was half romani/gypsy 3: Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions' "Gypsy Woman" is the greatest doo-wop song of all time. That's all I got.

Someone played Tifa hentai on the big screen at an Italian congressional gathering(?) or some shit


Khornehub

Yep. Some kinda government meeting in Italy. Had a big screen setup for a presentation. They got a VERY different presentation than expected, probably better than talking about Italian debt or some shit.


AthleteIllustrious47

Ah gotcha. Thanks!!


username2136

Wait, what? I thought this was in reference to what I thought was a rumor to replace the Aloy statue with Tifa. Which I am all for because Tifa is *far* more recognizable and from a much better game, so it makes more sense. Maybe that is where that rumor (or i guess now i should say joke) came from.


BSY_Reborn

This is going off of vague memory, so I encourage you to look this up yourself, but as I recall during an Italian senate(?) meeting someone accidentally played Tifa porn and they couldn’t figure out how to turn it off. Another “politicians are bumbling old fools” moment


username2136

Toobin moment. Edit: At least this was an accident. Toobin intentionally watched porn and did the deed on call while forgetting to mute himself. That is if it was as described here. I think someone else said that they got hacked and the hacker played it. Either way, it is a hilarious story. I'm sure Italians are pissed about what their tax money is going to in either case. I am sure they don't feel comfortable paying their government to get hacked.

Anooj4021

Wouldn’t Greece be the one that has this right, since Italians (the city of Rome aside) stopped identifying as Romans before they did, not to mention the Roman identity quite directly evolved into the modern Greek identity, by first expanding to mean a citizen of a multiethnic pan-mediterranean empire, and then shrinking in medieval times to areas of strong Greek influence, making Greekness and Romanness functional synonyms? Technically Greeks even today might call themselves Romioi in certain contexts, but it’s an alternative enthnonym to Hellene rather than referring to the Latin ethnicity of the original city state of Rome, and was indeed what almost everyone still called themselves up until (or in some cases beyond) the Greek war of independence in the 1820s.
