Just because you’ve never seen this doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. It also doesn’t mean this is exaggerated. You shouldn’t dismiss things just because you haven’t seen them personally.

It happens so often that if you’ve never seen this you’re probably oblivious, which many people are. Your dismissive response says to me if you see something you don’t like it disregard it happened, picking reality instead of seeing it, or even trying to understand it (Tell me you’re British without telling me you’re British).

I am also a person that stands my ground and I don’t let people bully me at work which makes things worse. Most people, especially men in the UK are quite submissive in the office because they’re scared of conflict.

I’m also not going to pretend the racial factor isn’t massive because it it.
