A lot of social advice amounts to “round problems down”. Live and let live, turn the other cheek, don’t take things personally, etc. If you avoid escalation, you avoid destructive feedback loops. The concept of microaggressions as endorsed by the modern left does the opposite.
perception matters a lot. "where are you from?" is a very neutral question and the asker might really be expecting an answer like "Edison, NJ" instead of "Mumbai". lots of trip-wires in the way of understanding.

I read it, but you're agitated, and I'm sincerely not trying to argue with you. I'll read it again later and try to understand what I missed the first time.
