Russel Peters, for those who don’t know, is an older comedian who got famous by making fun of his Indian heritage. His comedy, as far as I remember, made fun of Indian accents etc. I was never interested in it, so I never checked it out, and eventually he disappeared.

To my surprise, he appeared today on my tiktok fyp with this short clip. I honestly didn’t expect this take from him. I went and found the original video, and I’ve linked the part where the clip is from.

It just proves that literally anyone who’s not a psychopath can see what’s going on here.

Russel Peters is basically the Indian-Canadian Dave Chappelle, so this tracks.

There's a reason why white American Christians used the bible to rationalize slavery, it's literally the textbook for settlers
