Somehow, my generally not overtly racist mother, came out as virulently racist against roma people at some point when I was living with her. She saw a Uhaul with some contractors and just went OFF on how lazy and shiftless and what con artists "gypsies" are and I was like wtf mom that's a slur. She was like "I can use a slur if I really mean it." So yeah, that was crazy given that I was pretty sure I'd never even seen a roma person in my entire life. Apparently my mom has.
