"And this whole secret is coming off as racist to me."

That's the point - it's meant to be ironic.

(Anonymous) 2018-05-30 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Expand on that.

Because they admit to starting to like Indian culture based on a book by a white person.

That's why it's a secret - because they know how ridiculous it is.

No?

They might very well know that they're being somewhat ridiculous, but that doesn't mean that they're not sincere. Knowing that something is ridiculous isn't necessarily the same as irony.

And even if they know that "I started to like India at least a little" is a completely fucking ridiculous thing to say, they still said it.

Well, it didn't come across as ironic. It just came across as racist.

I always wondered who the people who needed the "/s" at the end of posts were.

Thanks fam.

? Sorry, not sure what you mean.

They're accusing you of not understanding sarcasm.

It's not very nice.

Okay. Not seeing any sarcasm, and the other person responded as if that comment was serious. So not sure why I was singled out.

Yeah, they're just being a jerk. Don't worry about it.
