She Filmed Herself Confronting Her “Racist” Uber Driver. It Backfired.

Today I’m reacting to a viral TikTok of a woman filming herself confronting her Uber driver over comments he made about Asians. Was she right to stop the ride, call him out, and post the video online? Or is this just another case of over-sensitivity to perceived racism? Let’s watch.

As a white guy I had a very similar conversation with an Asian uber driver where he said I looked French and I replied that I was Scottish heritage. We had a very funny conversation about the differences in European facial features and laughed. I can't imagine how sad someine must be to get this uptight about that

[@cplcabs]

yeah, she is clearly a professional victim as a lot of people of colour in the western world are because they know its an easy way for them to gain.

[@sophiek.7465]

I work with a lot of guys from India and they are always very curious about my green eyes and wonder where I’m from because of how rare bright green eyes like mine are. They’ve found it fascinating to learn about my family and how surprisingly enough because we have an English background a lot of us have green eyes. It wasn’t racist at all. It was just curiosity about the different features humans have and it’s been a fun topic discuss because they have their own differences that I got to learn about

[@Kaelland]

As a point of interest, there was a wave of Norman settlement in Scotland in the late 12th and early 13th centuries. The Normans, as I'm sure you know, come from Normandy, and are a people who resulted from the intermingling of Norse settlers and native Franks and Gallo-Romans. So, it's entirely possible that as someone whose ancestors are Scots, you may also very well have ancestors from France.

[@thenonexistinghero]

That's the way it usually goes. Someone sees something, makes a guess based on their own knowledge, experience, assumptions, etc... asks that person about it... and then the person is wrong. And then you have a conversation about that. I'm mixed race of a few and people ask me if I'm Mexican, Native American, etc all the time. I'm not, not even close, but it doesn't offend me at all. It's often even hard to tell where someone's actually from even if they're native. There was that one Japanese guy (I think Yuta or something) with a KZbin video where he asked Japanese people if they could recognize from which south-eastern Asian country people were from. And... they had just as much of a hard time telling as non-Asians would. Even for Japanese people themselves they had a hard time telling. It's just dumb to assume someone knows everything about you just by 1 look. Not just dumb, it's very arrogant. And then getting mad about it as well. Honestly, it's no different from those pathetic nobles that got mad at people not being able to tell their status just based on how the nobles acted. You'd think we went back to the middle ages.

I worked for a dermatologist years ago as a medical assistant. I was assisting with a skin biopsy of a dark skinned woman. When the doctor removed the piece of skin, I could see clearly the melanin in the surface of the skin and the rest was non-pigmented underneath the epidermis. I mentioned how, even though we all look different on the surface, you can see we are all the same underneath. The woman was so angry that she told the doctor, after I left the room, how racist I was and she could not believe what I said. I meant nothing of the sort. I was actually saying we are all the same regardless of what our superficial appearance may look like. The doctor understood where I was coming from. She even told me how I was looking at it as a student and learning about the body. I still, over 20 years later, remember this day like it was yesterday. I cannot imagine going about life being so sensitive to others innocent comments. It must be a miserable existence.

But now, in recent years, I’ve heard black people say how much they like it when they have white friends who laugh at the “white people” comments they make - and what I hear is “I’m not racist against white people, I have white friends” - which… I’m just like … okay, this debate just got more complicated So this girl… she responds that it’s an “excuse” that he has a Chinese girlfriend; and all I see is justification for her hate. She’s decided that, whatever he says at this point, she thinks she already knows him well enough to be able to say anything about him - and it’s not possible that she made a mistake. I mean, she’d be absolutely embarrassed to find out she was wrong, wouldn’t she? It’s very human to try to save face by remaining confident, but Her own prejudice is what’s causing the problem. 💙

She's gross, entitled and manipulative.

I have encountered a really Woke gay Americans, who are just Immigrants from Asia and so I wont think this video is fake. This is so real. Such people exist. I only met one. I feel really bad for the taxi driver.

Someone should find out where SHE works……..

She was probably one of the bottom feeders cheering the Israeli baby massacre... Total lack of empathy... But it's unreasonable to expect empathy from a STOOL SAMPLE....

I know! I feel so bad for this guy.

A word of warning⚠️: Most all of us work a service job in some type of service industry. When interacting with customers, DO NOT EVER ask them anything resembling a personal question. Just serve them, be kind, and move on to the next customer. Trying to establish Any human to human personal connection is a Pandora’s Box that you Do Not want to open.
