I'm not going to indulge in anything close to Nazism here. I'm not looking to eliminate anyone who identifies as Hungarian as not because over generations their Hungarians have mixed with Germans, Slovaks, Ruthenians, or Jews, or anyone in particular.
When it comes to stereotypes of Hungarians though, it seems that this "truism" is often repeated. Sometimes when I hear it coming out of someone's mouth I get the feeling they are being DISMISSIVE of a unique culture, that they even have forgiveness for Hungarians because "really" they are Germans.
Have you had this experience?
(Run the word "stereotype" through the search feature on this Google Blogger to bring up OTHER STEREOTYPES.)
