British YouTuber Miles Routledge has come under heavy criticism after making a series of racist comments directed at Indians on X. The 25-year-old, who gained notoriety as the British student stranded in Afghanistan during the Taliban takeover in 2021, sparked controversy with his offensive remark. The incident began when Routledge shared a screenshot of a message from an anonymous user on X who appeared to be threatening him.
The message read, "I will find you I promise, your apology video will be sweet." Indian threatens to find me, it backfires lmao. pic.

He further mocked the supposed Indian accent by responding with, "Saar okay lord saar good luck saar haha saar.

twitter.com/2jP5xWuIGz — Lord Miles (@real_lord_miles) August 22, 2024 Routledge escalated the situation by joking about launching nuclear weapons at India in a separate tweet. "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 tweeted, before reportedly adding, "Hell, I might just launch at India just for the sake of it!" He went on to bluntly state that he simply did not like India and reiterated his baseless belief that the troll who had threatened him was Indian. "Believe it or not, I just don't like India. If a man online suddenly talks about ducking your mother in the first response, he's Indian," Routledge claimed.
