A few weeks ago there was a discussion about how casual racism against Indians is normalized.
If anyone makes rude remarks on someone being black or LGBTQ - they are rightfully called out and are forced to apologize.
Make fun of Indians 🇮🇳- anyone can do it and get away without repercussions.
"Indian name detected, opinion rejected 🤡"
It's so normalized that even so called Indian-origin CEO's of big tech giants also don't give a flying fuck to intervene and stop this 🤷♂️🥴
Rand means whore in this part of the world. So Don't Be a Whore(Rand) dbrand.
Chitransh means artist in Sanskrit.
By the way here are some surnames from West, this is not to offend anyone 🙂👇(1/n)
@dbrand This is just going too far dude. Making expensive shit which doesn't last and then demeaning the customer with racist remarks when they complain. The admin is too proud I guess.
@dbrand@MKBHD I hope you will be cutting ties with @dbrand after this clearly racist tweet?
I think if you continued working with the company after this many would be disappointed (especially after the points made in the video “reflecting on the color of my skin” were so important).
@dbrand Sooo what’s more important @linusgsebastian - keeping them as a sponsor because they pay well, or dropping them because they crossed the line?
@LinusTech
@nihalpoosa@RaghavT_ this
plus the idiotic people that posts like these attract, they try their best to tease indians and india
racism against indians is so normalised here, go through the replies, youll see
I've emailed the CEO of dbrand regarding the recent post made on their account. Let's see if they take any action. 👀
I request you to mail them too, because it’s highly unprofessional and racist to post something like that.
@MKBHD I've only known this brand through your videos. It seems like a very poor choice to collaborate with them. In the hundreds of videos that I've seen on your channel, you've seemed like a principled person. How does their casual racism sit with your principles?
