There have been cases where the other party usually steps up and speaks out against what they're being used for but sadly this isn't the case here (I'm reminded of an incident after the (Manchester?) stabbing where a Muslim woman who was photographed on her phone walking past the scene was used as 'evidence' that Muslims are cold-hearted (she was actually on the phone to let her mother know she was safe); the guy who took her photograph actually spoke up and said he never imagined the photo would be interpreted in such a way. There was also the famous picture of a lady (you see her in reactionary thumbnails all the time) with a very expressive face who at the time was having a discussion with a (right wing?) guy that got shared around and used against anything perceived as woke, where the guy who had been chatting with her actually spoke up in her defense and said actually she was very polite and he had a respectful discussion with her). This person is just a sore loser and if I had to guess, I'd say she hated losing to an Algerian lady as well.

anyone have a link? I don't think reverse image search would turn up anything useful, the image is too widespread
