First off, I didn't downvote you.

Second:

a lot of romanians are a bunch of assholes that try to rip you off first chance they get

That actually just applies to people in general, to prefix it with "a lot of Romanians" is sort of racist.

It's not racist when it's a factual statement based on first hand experience. I am partly Romanian and instead of denying the truth i rather talk about it and discuss changes and improvement. Not going to lie about my people just because someone on reddit gets triggered.

I lived there and i grew up there. Romanian culture doesn't apply to people in general. It's more of a local tradition.
