mentatus 8 years ago Philippinesball, gypsies come from India, so you're kinda related
Was that Lapu-Lapu a gypsy or what?28 likes Reply
philippinesball 8 years ago Yes, they do come from India but Romania in the Countryball world has the stereotype of being mistaken as a Gypsy because of its high number of Gypsy population and also often mistaken: Romani = Romanian.

As for Lapu Lapu possibly having gypsy heritage it's still unknown but in my assumption is that Lapu Lapu is purely Austronesian with Islam heritage or traditions (not quiet sure if he's a gypsy, because a lot of traders not only Indians had been in the Philippines first as traders than the Europeans) and as for the Filipinos, well I can say that some of us can have gypsy heritage, or maybe even mixtures of many since the Philippines is a melting pot of races (Indians, Chinese, Spanish, etc.) even before18 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago The biggest Gypsy population is in USA... and there is a higher number of Gypsies in Turkey and Spain than in Romania, have a look here:??

The mistake Romani=Romanian is used by dumb people to show their ignorance or hate versus the Romanians. By that measure, Romani=Rome so all Latins are Gypsy?14 likes Reply
philippinesball 8 years ago Nope, I'm not saying that all Latins are Gypsy. What I'm saying here is that Romanians are often mistaken for Romanis and vice versa because of only the name

Romania, in the Polandball universe, became the center of Gypsy stereotypes because of his name even though he doesn't have the largest Gypsy population. But don't worry, they're all just jokes since Polandball pokes at national stereotypes25 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago That blog makes a crappy statement: "Romania is Romani's people homeland". This is bullshit, there are more Gypsies in Turkey, who brought them from India to Europe btw30 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago Anyways, I find it funny and ironic that a Filipino makes Gypsy jokes about other people, when Filipinos are Indo-Malays, therefore closely related to Indians, a people to which Gypsies also belong 16 likes Reply
philippinesball 8 years ago Are you really taking the Gypsyball-Romaniaball stereotype and jokes too seriously?

I've been in Polandball for a long time now so I know how these comics work. If so you're offended, maybe Polandball isn't made for you since Polandball/Countryballs pokes at national stereotypes and not only Romania's and it's kinda like tradition now especially on reddit where majority of these comics came from. Do you know that USA is a fat and geographically-challenged-anti-commie-freedom-giving character? I don't see anyone complaining about that in polandball reddit 'cos they know its just a stereotype and stereotypes are just a thing to be laughed at and not taken seriously especially since not all stereotypes are true.

If you are indirectly violated by this comic poking at national stereotypes then I can submit your comments to the original creator of this comic??selenocystein on reddit to see what his/her reaction will be or you can d16 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago Philippinesball, it may be a joke to you, but this is an ethnic slur mainly used by Romanianophobes - how about calling you Guguball,
Flipball or Indioball? Don't compare it to USA being depicted as fat and
geographically challenged, a similar "joke" would be calling USA
"Niggerball". Gypsies were slaves in Romania as black people were in
the US, so that would be similar. This is not a national stereotype, a
national stereotype is Romanians being vampires, picking fruit in the
West or eating mamaliga. Calling Romanian gypsies is fucking offensive.
And don't try to hide behind other comic creators.12 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago Cool down, chico, and don't call me child because looking at your age I could be your
father (maybe I really am, who knows?

I didn't get fucking offended, I was just amused by the fact that a person who's related to Indians/Gypsies would call other people "Gypsies", that's all I thought people posted their own cartoons on this site (including you), my apologies to you.

Nevertheless, once you share some shit, expect that people would think that you endorse it.

Cheers!13 likes Reply
philippinesball 8 years ago Sorry for that, it's been awhile since I got into an argument and I happened to wake up at the wrong side of the bed awhile ago.

Anyways, this is how this site works. You'll never know who owns who unless they say so or you look up in reddit. Me, I just feel like sharing anything that comes from the subreddit of polandball especially things that many users can easily understand. It's okay, I thought you were attacking me because I thought you were identifying me as a racist and hypocrite at the same time when I just shared an image out of nowhere but meh people make mistakes and it's okay but I really don't mix the two up unlike other ignorant people?? ??

Sorry for everything and best regards to Romania! Good night.14 likes Reply

Polandball 8 years ago "Romania = Gypsies" is a classic countryball-joke. You can't just cancel it, even if you're very angry about it.??

mentatus 8 years ago Just have a look above, I think I over-explained it 23 likes Reply
mentatus 8 years ago And of course I can't "cancel" it, because I can't stop ignorant people making stupid "jokes". However I can speak out and point out that a joke is funny or it's just a dumb cartoon fed by ignorance and/or hate.20 likes Reply

vivinii 8 years ago These racism and ignorance excuses did annoy me :/ i'm brazilian and i live amongst a lot of stereotypes, mistakes, and racism... and what do most brazilians do about it? memes, jokes, etc. you have to learn how to laugh from this ignorance you say you hate... we joke a lot even amongst the states themselves, their accents and differences, and no one complains... this is not only about recognising that every place has its own stereotypes, but also about seeing that other cultures aren't supposed to know everything about your own... btw pnc dos boludos HU3 HU3 BR BR22 likes Reply

cgoidan2004 8 years ago First of all the Dacians exist, see Traian's column and what you say is neither realistic or historical. Hungary and Poland have different language, the Hungarians have a Protestant religion and they have different cultures. They can be good friends but never a family30 likes Reply
mayernaise 8 years ago Maybe you're taking things too literally. Despite their differences they still consider themselves as "family" because of their long history together. It's not the literal "family" since both of them are from separate linguistic and genetic families but it's more of a formed by close friendship type like how most people these days consider their best friends as a part of their family. They even have a Hungarian-Polish Friendship Day to commemorate their historical brotherhood and camaraderie. So yes they are family to themselves but not the literal kind.27 likes Reply

mentatus 8 years ago What is not full of "thruth"? What are your NPOV sources to back your statements up? Have you even try to read that article or was it too hard for you to spell?
Wikipedia is a collaborative encyclopedia with lots of good (and some bad) editors, but those articles are pretty neutral even this is a sensitive subject - and the statements there are backed up by reliable sources, not by what you heard at the local skinhead/Jobbik/Magyar Garda reunion over a bottle of palinka24 likes Reply

katonabalazs2001 8 years ago Germany need to pay because after ww2 he give to polen verry small amount of money compared to other countries.and poland was one of the countries what take more damages and ,,anchluss'',,,blitz krieg'' than other countries.15 likes Reply
BelgiumballsLifeMa 8 years ago So, following your logic, nowadays germans are responsable for WW2 and need to pay back for what their grandparents/ancestors did? That's totally unfair. You also have to consider the fact that not all germans were agreeing with Hitler's politics during the 3rd reich (I'm pretty the guy did shout the whole "let's kill jews" thing at everyone's face during the elections) and most of the ones that did agree with him, where young adults that had been brainwashed by nazi propaganda for years. What happened during WW2 is certainly not the german population's fault, which was simply desperate for a government that could have helped them survived the economic crashes of 1929.25 likes Reply

Zathukoslaviaball 8 years ago I think that it is not about that. This 1 Trillion debt thing was an actual thing being stated by Poland. So, technically, you should be ranting to the Polish ministers about this. Although, I could be wrong as well.

Zathukoslaviaball 8 years ago On a side note, back then, Poland demanded for 1/4th of land from East Germany. And, Germany paid like about a total of $700 Billion for war reparations, probably a lot more than any other country that Germany has ever paid to for war reparations. So, I agree with you to some extent that Germans don't need to pay. Although, I could be wrong about this as well.

BelgiumballsLifeMa 8 years ago I have nothing against the Polish government asking for reparation. My problem is the fact that they put this on the table now when it's been more than 70 years already! Nowadays germans have nothing to do with what happened to Poland during WW2. Yes it was horrible, but Germany already paid for it. I was astonished to discover that for 50 years, Germany had to pay for highways' lighting in Belgium in "reparation for the war", and I still am. It's disgusting to put the blame and make people pay for something they weren't even born when happened. Where do you think Germany finds the money to pay for all these "reparations"? Through taxes their population pays. This is what I find unfair. Wouldn't it annoy you to have the money you worked hard to earn being taken away from you for something you didn't even do?35 likes Reply
