Of course people won't give a fuck when we are put in a bullshit situation. To go back to that Sri Lankan dude's example, no one would care if he said that his Sri Lankan mother is whiter than me or that I pass as Sri Lankan, etc even though his people are mixed race and look completely different from me and the people from our region. Me passing in Sri Lanka is almost as absurd as me passing in Sweden, perhaps the former is even more absurd than the latter tbh. However, everyone would lose their shit if a Swede told me that I pass in Sweden but no one would say a damn thing to that guy saying that I pass in Sri Lanka along with some other bullshit things he claimed..
