    1. You come off kind of racist here.
    2. That’s not a burqa.
    3. Men don’t wear them, only women.
    4. It’s a balaclava.
    5. I’d imagine a nazi would be wearing one as part of black bloc to hide their identity.

      Think you failed to recognise the sarcasm of my comment to ridicule the buffoon in the video. Wind your neck in and consider that I know

        Being accused of racism is uncomfortable, especially for white people who haven’t examined how their identity influences interactions and relationships. When being called “racist“, it is natural to feel a range of emotions, from defensiveness to guilt, shame, or even confusion at a given response from another person or group.

        If you’re accused of being racist, consider resisting the urge to dismiss or minimize the other person’s feelings and lived experiences of racial trauma in a radicalized society.

          I’m brown. My family is from S. Asia. We are living through increased scapegoating everytime we put the TV on. Comparing the head coverings of the buffoons to religious or traditional dress is humourous within our communities. On a related note, we also quietly joke about uncles with big bellies, bad suits and bushy beards as Indian Santa’s. Poor taste in the wrong context, but you can always chuckle in privacy at your uncles.

          Blimey, you really are determined. Yes, doesn’t matter, its the irony of how he looks vs what he objects too. Good enough for your belligerence? Is being South Asian origin Muslim sufficient or do you wish to persist?
