Bilal Zafar tackles anti-Muslim hate one joke at a time
Bilal Zafar, a British Pakistani who tweets @zafarcakes - reference to British 'jaffacakes' - landed in an online controversy in September last year when #boycottmuslimbusinesses was trending after his twitter handle was mistaken for a Muslim cake shop. Since that episode, which resulted in some islamophobic comments and even lead to an online petition against his fictional cake shop, Zafar has been successfully entertaining audiences mocking the islamophobic trolls.
