Hell, I might just launch at India just for the sake of it, Miles Routledge said on X
British YouTuber Miles Routledge is in the middle of a storm on the internet after he made numerous racist remarks against India and Indians on X (formerly Twitter). Routledge, who broke into the limelight as the British student who was stuck in Afghanistan during the Taliban takeover and had to be evacuated, made remarks insulting Indians. Routledge’s posts ridiculed the way Indians spoke English before making more deplorable remarks.
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.

The controversial social media interactions began on Wednesday when he shared a funny video on X. “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,” he said.

However, he followed it up with a statement targeting India. “Hell, I might just launch at India just for the sake of it!” Miles Routledge jotted.
When this statement was called out, he became more aggressive and wrote more racist statements against India. “Believe it or not, I just don’t like India. Also I can sense an Indian, he is indian. If a man online suddenly talks about ducking your mother in the first response, he’s indian. Many such cases,” Routledge claimed.
Things escalated further when the Brit shared the screenshots of a fake X account that threatened him. Routledge was certain that it was an Indian running the account and carried on making insulting and racist statements targeting Indians. Most of the remarks made by the 25-year-old is sensitive to include in the article.
