First of all you're wrong about Hitler - The man believed in genetic perfection and skin colour/ethnicity was a variable - You only need to spend 15 minutes in stormfront to see how much gene matters, regardless of how smart or nice you are as a person.
Well I live in Portugal and here we have some Romanians,gypsies, and blacks. Portuguese people are racist, but only subtly. Basically, most of us don't really "like" blacks, gypsies and other coloured immigrants but few of us want to kick them out and we welcome them here. REgarding eastern Europeans, we are only racist towards them if they're non-white - For example, white Ukranians are common in Portugal and no one discriminates against them unless the Portuguese (spoken) is terribly imperfect.
I don't how how true what you wrote is. My girlfriend is 1/4 Gypsi, and as she likes to say "I'm only ethnically gypsi" (it's basically a code for "don't mix me in the same bag as those people - She is really racist against gypsies). Out of all social groups I think gypsies are the most hated in Portugal, much more than blacks, Indians and so on.
Out of curiosity, are Romanians ethnically white? I'm asking this because most Romanians I see here are gypsi, but now that you tell me that I'm realizing you guys are probably eastern caucasians.
I've had bad experiences with gipsies, but I try to not generalize - Though my prejudice still lingers when a gipsy approaches me on the street ("No I don't have any damn cigarettes!!!")

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
