If that guy holding the “White Tears” cup at the top is Manveer Heir, then he is as Caucasian as those he hate-tweeted about. While the term “white” typically refers to Europeans, there are many other Caucasian ethnic groups throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
He’s almost certainly a Muslim—meaning that the difference between him and the people he hates on is religious, not racial.
I say this because it is annoying and incorrect to conflate race with religion. There are only four races; there are hundreds (at least) of religions. And there is no connection between the two.
Anyway, I am glad the game company fired him. Employers have no obligation to keep racist and religionist employees on staff. I hope Manveer’s religionist hatred makes it hard for him to find any other position, as well.
I wouldn’t let this guy slip the label of racist on a technicality about racial categories. He apparently has a problem with people of a certain skin color. That’s good enough for the label to fit. No mercy for these people.
Sadly, he actually wasn’t fired; he was released after he had finished his part on the game. He should be thrown south of the USA border and locked out for the heck of it though.
