Laura Ingraham, founder and editor-in-chief of American media website, LifeZette, recently decided to share an Islamophobic tweet with her 1.56 million followers.
In it, she posts a photo of a niqabi covered from head to toe walking with a banana in hand with a caption that reads: "The new Washington, DC!", which inadvertently suggests that >Muslims should be banned from the United States ... Well, it's either that or bananas don't have a place in the U.S. capital - go figure.
But, people didn't let her comment slip. Humor, sarcasm, and facts dominated the conversation.
People couldn't help but fight the hate ... with lots of POTASSIUM!
Is walking with a banana against American values?
BREAKING: "Bananas Invade Earth"
A "slippery slope" indeed.
"When I see fruit walking around town, it's time to get my firearm."
Others resorted to honesty: "I'd rather chat with a Muslim woman carrying a banana ..."
Others called her out for being a bigot at heart.
Telling her to delete her account.
Islamophobia ... it brings out the stupid in you for the whole world to see.
