Could be Pakistani. The most Indian-hating person I ever met was a Pakistani guy.

India and Pakistan have a bit of a history
Understatement of the century ☝️
Hahahaha that’s akin to “Israelites and Palestinians have been in a bit of a disagreement for a few years now.”
They haven't always seen eye to eye, let's put it that way
Are Israeli's called Israelites? That's a very ancient biblical term, no?
Anon actually so racist can't tell Indians apart from Pakistanis
Pakistan -> Muslim Indians

I used to work with this lifted-truck literally red-necked red neck. He kept going on about how hot his girl was, and how white she was.
One day he shows me her picture, and she was indeed a very hot dark skinned Latina. Some people are just in denial.
A lot of Latin American people see themselves as white and would get very offended if you suggest otherwise
Edit: Sorry I had no idea latinx was offensive
Not as offended as they would be if called them Lafuckingtinx to their face lmao.
I lot of Latinos are white, but she was not. Of course to a racist like this guy, no Latino is really white.
Please stop using "latinx".
Only Americans seem to draw a distinction between Spanish descendents other European descendents. Presumably because they're poor and on the wrong side of a line someone drew on a map.
Antonio Banderas was bemused when he was labelled a "person of colour".
Yes I've had this argument with some Latino people. I guess they don't to be on the shitside of the stratification, but the racist whites hate them as well.
I feel like this phenomenon should have a catchy name, like: "No one hates Scotsmen more than Scotsmen."
Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!
It's called "uncle ruckus" In my circles.
Omg, I forgot about that character 😅
I mean, we're on Lemmy, every American here hates America
I don't hate America, I just wish we could be better. Hate takes too much energy

I have an Asian buddy that rages over how bad Asian drivers are and even gives them the fingers pulling his eyes even more closed move while passing them. I don't go anywhere in a car with him anymore... Come to think of it I rarely see him now...
Sounds like a great guy lmao
Have you met Americans?
Source: I'm an American.
Or they could be from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka...
met a guy online who has [opinions]
see the guy
I'm not racist or anything but he's clearly [race] so his [opinions] are hypocritical
It's like Americans on lemmy!
Familiarity breeds contempt
As mentioned in the thread, self-hatred or the guy being Pakistani are two likely explanations. Maybe a third scenario could be he was testing if Anon was racist against Indians as well before presenting himself.
I'm not a fan of the british...
Am british...
