Had to get another train today, sat in the mini first class compartment in order to distance. Three people came into the compartment without masks and I instantly moved to the standard class compartment. They accused me of being racist for doing so.

How was moving compartment because people without masks came in racist? I would have moved no matter what their ethnicity was - I'm not sitting in a tiny compartment with three maskless people for 12 minutes.

I was last called racist 10 years ago when I didnt feel comfortable talking to a random stranger in a rough part of town at 3am while waiting for the bus. Again, I would have reacted the same way no matter what ethnicity the person was - at 3am you are more wary of people.

Mate, those people are total human waste. Don't worry about it, honestly.


Don't take it personally, happens all the time.

The minor indignity of occasionally being on the receiving end of spurious claims of racism is a small price to pay for being white in a country that maintains a white supremacist racial caste system.

True. I did think of explaining by pointing at my face mask but thought it might make things worse.

You're allowed to do one real racism now for balance.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

That's awful, sorry to hear that. I worry about that too.

Maybe consider not wearing a face mask with a giant swastika on it.

If anti-maskers are a race, then I'm racist and proud.

Sounds like a scene from the next season of Curb.

You should've said, "No, but I am cuntist though". That would learn 'em.
