Gibraltar International Bank in the British overseas territory of Gibraltar decided to pander to the local Hindu population by encouraging its employees to wear traditional Indian dresses for Diwali yesterday.

But they failed to clarify which kind of "Indian" they meant, so several people showed up in Native American costume.

The bank managers' faces got red.

People in Gibraltar have heard the term "Indian" for a Native American? This is surprising to me.

Damnnnnnnn!!!! Girl on the right needs to try a salad every now and then. Fat shaming is ok when they put it out there like that. (I'm implementing this rule.)

Women and diversity for the sake of diversity in the workplace did this.

"Oooh let's play dress up and celebrate!!!!"

No.

Go to work dressed appropriately. Get your work done. Go home.

The work done by all those women could probably be done by one person. But… Diversity!

"Indian" is ignorant nonsense too. Some idiot hit North America and thought he reached India. The stupidity has continued for 100s of years.

Everyone knows what an american Indian is. 5 minutes ago people acted like it was a problem.

On the other hand, Indians are not native to the United States of America and never were.

But the feathers have no connection with "Indian". If you believe so, you are ill-informed.

I want spoke to a stranger and she said she was a Native American. I asked her was she a Navajo and she said no and then I asked her if she was she an Arapahoe and she said no finally I asked this Dallas woman what tribe she identified with and she said she was a Dallas hoe.

She was just trying to get into character and ate the entire bison in one sitting.
