A video of an American confronting an Indian-origin man in public has gone viral, sparking massive outrage. The widely circulated clip captures a “brown” man emerging from a parking lot when the American stops him.

“Why are you in my country?” the man confronts the Indian. Confused by the confrontation, the Indian-origin man did not engage. “I don’t like you guys here. There are too many of you guys here. Indians! You guys are flooding all the white countries. I am tired of it. Americans are sick of this sh**. I want you to go back to India,” he says.

“Alright,” says the Indian man before leaving. “Tired of this fu**** brown people invading the country. fu**** bullshit,” the American says before turning off the camera.

The video quickly drew attention, accumulating over a million views, and several social media users slammed the American man.

“He should have asked that question to his Govt instead of asking the guy who came there legally. But no. They will elect their Govt happily without raising any question, but harass the people who are legally there,” said a user.

Another user commented, “Nothing, they’re just intimidated by Indians! They know how talented, capable, and progressive we are. It only shows their insecurities. They see us as a threat.”

“This type of interaction is unfortunately becoming more common. Usually comes from a place of deep insecurity, this guy probably has little else to be proud of other than accomplishments by other white guys,” a third user reacted.
