    Oh shit, that’s kinda like how there is a saying about Roma in Finland, how

    Spoiler

    90% of them ruin their reputation for all of them, referring to the idea of Roma being thieves, frauds and generally untrustworthy.

    I’m pretty sure people say this unironically to this day, and we have a saying of similar vibes about Russians, too! A lovely culture, full love and acceptance*!

      Them romas are always stealin’ the copper and burnin’ cables!

      Tale as old as time here in the Balkans, just replace roma with the appropriate slur.
