My ex has this thing about his hair. He is a ginger and dyes everything black bc he faces “discrimination” for it. It’s really just old thinking minded ppl who never gave up the jokes. Now he thinks being ginger is a race. Thoughts?

Mind you idk if he knows what discrimination truly means here. And also claims that if being black or white or brown is in our DNA like hair color. Therefore hair color is a race too. So now theoretically all brunettes are a race, blondes, black hair. And not just a simple phenotype like eye color or nose shapes or if one person has more hair on their arms then someone else. Or hair texture across even the same race. Simply bc that and “a whole nation of redheads exists” IE Ireland 💀💀

Also I’m EXTREMELY Irish and most of us have really dark brown/almost black hair over ginger so idk what he’s talking about. Ginger hair is a RARE genetic mutation

EXACTLY he is so fucking deep in what I can only call, the ginger pill. Like red pill but this. He is genuinely fucking stupid I even laid out statistics. What “black Irish” is. Definitions of race, ethnicity, discrimination, prejudice. Like he genuinely just wants to be victimized in this. I can get the bullying, sure. I can sympathize for that. But the moment he pulled this I lost all respect in the topic like bro? Get a grip

i have never faced real discrimination for my hair color and i have for other things like i would know. at worst ive gotten “does the carpet match the drapes” more than most women but thats a product of misogyny not ginger racism 💀
