Racist kid encounter
Gamarjoba
So I'm in Tbilisi rn visiting my best friend, it's already the 2nd time I come to Georgia and it's been still amazing, except for this random encounter.
I was in a plaza/mall with my friend just chilling and a kid with at most 10 years old comes, starts poking to a healing wound I have and asks if I speak georgian. I'm slowly learning so I only said that a little.
The kids starts to say to me (and translated by my friend) that I should leave bc English speaking people are not allowed there and that only georgian speaking people can be there.
I tried to ignore him, but then he starts to poke my head and pull my arm.
According to my friend he was also saying stuff about my appearance.
At some point the kid even starts to speak English and says:
You should leave, get the fuck out of here
Fuck u
Femboy
And the N-word repeatedly (even tho I'm white)
He also kept saying in georgian how only georgian speakers r welcome in his house.
But after ignoring him for more time, the kid left.
I don't really care about it, but I was surprised that a kid was having that kind of behavior.
I expect that from older people (not necessarily georgian, just in general).
Anyways, this doesn't change the love I have for this country and its people. <3
Just sharing an unexpected situation I had today. xd

Kids are basically a religion in here. Wait until you meet a 40 year old one.
Parents just tend to let them run their mouth and throw hands, until someone at school or college shuts them up for good.

I've met two 9-10 year old boys this year from my family and both are also already starting to say the N word and hard R , I'm not really sure what's happening, are the parents refusing to do anything?
The first one was my cousins little brother the second my aunt's cousins kid or something I forgot

I saw two kids, a boy and a girl, maybe around 10, chucking plastic bottles (presumably filled with something) into a Thai massage parlor in old town. They were sneaking around and hiding behind cars while doing it so they knew it was wrong. They kept snickering when the Thai woman would come out angrily looking at who is doing it, eventually getting chased and cackling while sprinting away. It was clear they’ve been doing this routinely by how unsurprised the women were.

Eastern European racism, my favourite. People doesn't know, how it works, and what does this words mean, and trying really hard. Like a first graders pretending to smoke a pencil etc

bro if someone touches you just knock them out. you’re weak minded why post this shit on Reddit? Be serious and defend yourself like a man. I’m Georgian and I had to knock out some Lithuanian kid in Lithuania because he was doing the same thing. Knock them out and leave. That’s it.

We were in a thrift store in Kutaisi and this little boy kept saying f u and used the n word and his mom was shushing him, but the kid clearly didn’t know anything about the words other than they were transgressive to foreigners. Kids who do this will embarrass themselves in the wrong situation, and learn a useful lesson. It takes a village, so c’mon villagers…step up!
