[BRIEF NOTE] A final note about the Roma

[rfmcdonald]

It's a bit rich to criticize the Roma for not adopting the conventional mores of the societies they live in when those societies are themselves new to these mores, and when the only sort of interactions they have with the states which claim tyheir citizenship and their loyalties tends to be of the most intimately coercive kind, as in Parrajmos the Romany Holocaust or in modern sterilization of Romany women. Beating people about the head doesn't make them like you, or want to be you.
