- Jack’s friend’s responded by listing their diverse ethnicities alongside photos of themselves, and plenty of people were happy to see Tristin get called out
A Twitter user who criticized an actor’s photo of his friends for being ‘so white’ was proven to be terribly out of line when members of the group hit back by revealing their diverse ethnicities.
Jack Pattillo, an actor and internet personality from Austin, Texas, was enjoying some time with his friends in Disneyland when he took to Twitter to share a photo of them enjoying some soft serve ice cream, writing: ‘Doing Disneyland right.’
Twitter user Tristin Lazarus responded to the photo by accusing Jack of discrimination, commenting: ‘Could you hire any POC? This picture is so white it’s making me squint. Disgusting.’

The unnecessary and inaccurate backlash caused Jack’s friend Tamoor Hussain to share another photo of himself to show Tristin that he was incredibly off base.
‘I’m a Pakistani Muslim, my dude. Calm yourself,’ he wrote, and he wasn’t the only one who put Tristin in his place.
‘Um… I’m Indian,’ their pal Ria tweeted, while their other friend revealed he is Chinese, writing: ‘Happy Chinese New Year!’
Plenty of people were thrilled to see Tristin get called out, including actress Mica Burton.

And a person named Alex commented: ‘Tristin seeing how your own racist ignorance just got owned, I really hope you see a lesson to start applying some actual thought into your words and what you believe in.
‘Your Twitter page is very reminiscent of someone simply following the herd cause you can’t think for yourself.’

But Tristin doubled down and insisted that he stood by what he wrote.
‘I stick 100% to my first tweet,’ he replied. ‘They just hired the token minorities to try not to appear racist, Really they’re just fascist pigs.’
‘Funny, the majority is still white,’ he added. ‘Looks like I’m proven right. Hiring token minorities doesn’t fix the fact that you’re a racist. Get off my timelines bigots.’
Gabe Graziani, however, pointed out that they don’t even work for the same company.
‘They’re a mixed group of industry friends and very nice people,’ he explained. ‘Consider you might have made a hasty and pretty bad tweet.’
‘Tristin, man, just accept you made a mistake calling out Jack and RT, and then move on and stop throwing words around,’ someone else added.
