Squeex jokes about how his Indian ethnicity is always needlessly pointed out

While responding to a super chat, the streamer recounted various examples of people pointlessly bringing up his ethnic background. Speaking to his chat, Squeex mentioned that his friends would comically attach the word "Indian" to anything he did, including when he dressed up as Batman for Halloween. He described:

"There's no need to add the word Indian to anyone. Like you're just, like when you're comparing me to anybody else. Throughout my whole life, I'll dress up as Batman for Halloween, and my friends would be like, 'Dude, you make such a good Indian Batman.' It's like, 'Dude, I can't help the Indian part.'"

He further added:

"What the f**k? I'll just be like Bob from Bob's Burger. And they'll say, 'Dude, you're such a good Indian Bob!' 'Oh, you're playing Mario and talking, you're an Indian Clint.' It's like you can't change your ethnicity"

He then pointed out the time when the Canadian Prime Minister draped himself in Indian clothes. He said:

"I guess unless you're Justin Trudeau, I guess that's the one exception. He did a really good Indian Prime Minister. I think that's the one exception!"

Fans react to the comical tale

Redditors loved Squeex's comical and lighthearted response to people needlessly bringing up his ethnic background. The clip was shared in the popular subreddit r/LivestreamFail and received a largely positive response. Here are some of the reactions:
