How do u deal with Anti-Hydros?


Salaam Yo'all. OK, here is a situation. I do come across a lot of ANTI-HYDROS once in a while. This one non-hydro dude at my work (also a member of naseeb) sounds very 'anti-hydro' to me.

Some of the things I noted:
(1) He sez U hydros cannot speak proper urdu
(2) He sez Hydro guys/gals are always into clubs/dating...
(3) He sez he dont like Hydros cuz of their attitude
(4) Tries to imitate Hydro urdu
(5) ALWAYS MENTIONS THAT HE HOPES THIS HYDRO GET TOGETHER AT ISNA BE A FAILURE
(6) and more....

What do I do? I am trying to be nice to him but he is driving me insane. Do I bring out the Old City Lungee Pehelwaan and show up at work one day and kick his @$$? Or do I ignore him? I even told him to come to Hydro get together and meet Hydros and he said "... every freakin other desi is Hydro in Chicago ...". He also mentioned Hydro Gettogether is HARAAM! I mentioned to him that this is not a Nationalistic Supremecy thing.

I need fellow Hydros advice. (Btw, I am going to conceal the bros identitt). Just wanna know if u all face this too. Its sad that some Muslims can be racists.

Catman, race is not important but racism is not acceptable either. That is what I am trying to imply. (Pls read my JE about how it feels to be racially discriminated). Being Muslim, we are all One Ummah, but obviously being of different race, we all have different experiences and different 'stuff'. Culture/Race plays a big part in ones life such as the way we dress, the way we expect our spouses to behave, the food we eat, etc.... (Sometimes, unfortunately, Culture overtakes Islamic values in a persons life which is Sad and bad).

why is race so important? who cares we're all just a collection of a bunch atomic and subatomic particles that will end up 6 feet under in the end

He doesnt show himself or his race as superior but shows Hydros as down. I actually met (in real life, not just naseeb) some Hydros who hate Hydros. I also met some ppl who hate their own race. Racism/Hate is worse than Racial Superiority.

I am sure its his insecurity speaking since he is surrounded by Hydros in Chicago. I have encountered a few Hydro haters as well, but overall people seem to think that Hydros are very civilized and hospitable people.

I don't understand why people try to highlight the small differences between each other. Or try to suggest that one group is superior to the other.

that's funny how he says hydro gals and guys are into clubbin and dating. I think it's the COMPLETE opposite...generally speaking we are known to be decent with that stuff...hence we use chichora/chichori to put that stuff down lol

I think we should get the toughest Anti-Hydro and get the toughest Hydro and make them fight in a ring. The rest should watch. Whachoo all say?

Amermirza, I think you should take this guy out. HAHA. Show him what a hydro can do. I encounter hydro racism quite often. I simply laugh it off.

Seeing that he said, "every freakin other desi is hydro in chicago" it sounds to me like he's just scared, hey be glad that you guys have strength in numbers down there up here I have to defend single handedly mostly....with the urdu thing I just say that the other urdu is weak and mimic it in a girly voice, it's quite a crowd pleaser actually, my saudi friend follows suit by mimicking non-saudi arabic the same way seeing as their arabic is analogous to our urdu
