London: A major controversy sparked after a UK-based Youtuber Miles Routledge in a series of posts on X, joked about launching nuclear bombs to “atomise” nations including India over the “smallest infraction”, sparking massive outrage online.
“When I become prime minister of England, I’ll open the nuclear silos as an explicit warning to any foreign power that interferes with British interests and affairs. I’m not talking huge incidents, I’m itching to launch and atomize entire nations over the smallest infraction,” the now-deleted post read.
The Youtuber singled out India as one of the nations saying that if he were UK’s prime minister then he would ‘attack’ India ‘just for the sake of it.’
“Hell, I might just launch at India just for the sake of it!” he wrote.
Furthermore, responding to a user who allegedly threatened him over his remarks, the Youtuber, accusing rage-baiting, gave a racist explanation on why he did not like India.
“Believe it or not, I just don’t like India. Also I can sense an Indian, he is indian,” he said.
“Indian threatens to find me, it backfires lmao,” he wrote while sharing a screenshot of the chat.
As per reports, the image showed a message from a user which read: “I will find you I promise, your apology video will be sweet.”
Ever since posting the threat, Routledge shared a flurry of disturbing racist memes and AI-generated images to double down on his racist remarks.
