MAGA Man Threatens to Call ICE on Hispanic Couple at Texas Music Festival While Shouting 'I Am Racist!'

A man shouted 'Fuck you, I am racist' during a nighttime confrontation with a group in Austin, Texas, in footage shared on social media. Witnesses challenged his remarks, with one asking, 'You know we're in Texas?'

The recording prompted criticism and an online effort to identify the man. Although captions circulating with the footage linked the encounter to Austin City Limits Music Festival and described a possible threat to call immigration authorities, those details have not been independently established.

Witnesses Challenge Remarks In Austin Video

The footage captures verbal pushback as the man directs abuse at people nearby. One witness responds, 'You're not about to do nothing', while another challenges his demands that people leave the country by pointing out that they are in Texas.

In its transcript of the exchange, the X account @LongTimeHistory quotes the man saying, 'Go back to your country!' and 'We don't want you here in my country!'

The account also attributes the words 'You smell—go back to Mexico!' to him, alongside a claim that 'the average IQ of you people is 70' and a disability slur.

The remarks target people the man appears to regard as outsiders. They do not establish the nationality, ethnicity or immigration status of those he addressed.

An earlier caption described those targeted as a Hispanic couple, while a reply disputed that description. Neither account provides independently verified information about their identities or relationship, so the people involved are described here as a group.

How The Footage Was Shared

X account @LongTimeHistory credited Austin content creator Chase Kennedyy with the original clip, posted under the caption 'Whose man is this'.

The account said it was sharing a full-length version with an English translation to raise awareness, adding that the creator did not have an account on X. That description explains how the footage reached a wider audience, but does not establish whether the recording captures the beginning or end of the confrontation.

The account's later description places the exchange on a downtown sidewalk outside a bar area. The precise date and location have not been independently confirmed.

The Nerd Stash also published an account of the confrontation, reproducing the racist remarks and describing the responses from people nearby. Its report drew on the circulating social-media footage and posts.

ICE Allegation and Festival Connection Remain Unclear

An early caption described the man as 'ready to call ICE', referring to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. That wording alleges an intention; it does not establish that he attempted a call or contacted immigration authorities.

The quotations reproduced in the later post do not include an explicit threat to call ICE. The account also described him as a MAGA supporter, but no independent basis for his political affiliation has been established.

The posts placed the encounter in the context of Austin City Limits Music Festival's second weekend at Zilker Park. However, the description of a downtown sidewalk does not establish that the confrontation occurred within the festival grounds or that anyone involved had attended.

Online Identification Remains Unverified

Replies to the footage attempted to identify the man and linked him to an Austin-area business. Those claims have not been independently corroborated, and the person's name and business are not being published here.

The original recording's wider circumstances also remain unresolved. It is unclear what preceded the exchange, how the confrontation ended or whether anyone made a police complaint. The footage documents the racist remark and witnesses' objections, but does not establish what action, if any, followed.
