In what way is it supposedly 'racist'? If Shilpa had been white then there is no way that she would have been bullied like that. Therefore that must be racism. Things like 'Shilpa Poppadom', 'she should f off home', 'Indian people don't wash their hands' are blatantly racist comments. No sensible human being could deny that. The fact that they were made hatefully with an attempt to bully only makes them worse.
Admittedly, taken out of context, those all sound highly racist, but particularly the washing hands comment, if you take it along with the rest of the conversation, there's nothing racist about it. It's just utter, total, undeniable f**king stupidity. Apart from that "f**k off home" comment, I have yet to see anything which is being labelled as racism that I believe actually is. Just stupid (1) celebrity (2) females (3) in the Big Brother (4) house. Four things which are individually (let along collectively) a perfect recipe for bitching, name-calling, bullying and such.
