I’ve travelled all over Europe and i can’t say i fully agree with that take. I mean, yes, you’re absolutely correct about the Balkans being extremely racist toward the Roma, but the Balkans hate everyone, especially each other. And at least they’re direct about it.
But when it comes to general racism my experience has been that Scandinavian countries are actually the worst and where it’s most insidious, precisely because they pretend to be all progressive but in really they have a massive superiority complex.
And they have by far the worst islamophobia problem, even compared to the Balkans where they fought centuries of wars with the Turks it’s not as bad as what i encountered in Denmark or Sweden. And then you take a look at the kinds of parties they elect and the whole “progressive Nordics” act really falls apart.
