Serbian Expat in Egypt Battles Online Prejudice with Sarcasm

A recent viral video by "Putopisi iz Egipta" (Travelogues from Egypt) highlights the online backlash faced by a Serbian individual who relocated to Egypt. The video, set against the backdrop of the iconic Pyramids of Giza, features the author posing with a partner before showcasing a series of critical comments received on social media. One comment, attributed to "Miroljub," stated, "She betrayed her faith, don't ask for state help later." The author sarcastically retorted, "Miroljub doesn't know how to cross himself, has never been to church in his life." Another comment from "Ljubica" claimed, "I won't go to a country where women are covered and have no rights," to which the author responded, "Ljubica has an alcoholic husband, works three jobs just so she doesn't have to see him at home." A third comment from "Suzana" read, "They eat with their fingers there, ugh!" The author's counter: "Suzana licks her fingers when she eats figs." The video concludes with a comment from "Mara" stating, "It's dirty there and savages live there!" met with the author's response, "She hasn't left her village since '98. Doesn't even know how to find Egypt on a map." The video uses a cheerful folk music overlay, creating a striking contrast with the harshness of the comments, underscoring the author's defiant and sarcastic stance against online negativity and cultural stereotypes.
