Some Emirati pulled the race card on me again when I criticised Gulf/Middle Eastern countries for their Kafala system aka Modern Slavery. In case u aren't aware, Kafala system treats their workers as properties. So, this bloke thought I was white and called me racist for telling the truth about his country. First, Im not white. Not even a hint of European blood in me. I know because I had a DNA test, so don't tread on me. Second, And even if I were doesn't mean I cannot criticise how Gulf countries treat their migrants. You cannot pull the race card so you can escape a discourse about how you treat domestic workers in your country.
