I am Spanish. If I say racism in Spain is disgusting and systemic it is because I have seen it. You are probably familiar with things like "Cómo en España en ningún sitio" and how we dismiss other people’s food preferences, cultural habits and religions as those from someone inferior. The problem is that some of you are incapable of acknowledging that because you think you are right and Spain is some sort of chosen by God country. Just as an example, you use the word gypsy as something bad.

>You are probably familiar with things like "Cómo en España en ningún sitio" and how we dismiss other people’s food preferences, cultural habits and religions as those from someone inferior. You know what, every country does that. And I doubt anybody think this is a "chosen by God country". Before the "como en España en ningún sitio" we have the "Spain is different", the "picaresca", etc. Those are negative values. Spain is a country that is ashamed of itself. >Just as an example, you use the word gypsy as something bad. Gypsies are bad. I know a few good gypsies, and you know what? You look at them and you wouldn't even think they are gypsies. By gypsies, we all know what we mean, and most of them are Spanish themselves. As an example: Spain is a big country, with tons of accents (and languages), and gypsies live so secluded from society they have their own accent country-wide.
