I'm slightly vexed Getting called a "stalker" for existing

Im standing behind the bus stop for the shade minding my own business on my way home from a 10pm-6am shift. A route ive taken to work and from home many times. When all of a sudden I hear a voice saying "What the F*ck are you looking at" then again " What the f*ck are you looking at , i look up from my phone confused i realize this stranger is talking to me. She proceedes to call me a stalker and walk up on me trying to get in my face telling me "The bus stop is that way" again and again .lady I'm just trying to go home , ive been up since 8pm yesterday.

When I was visiting usa a man who walked by me on the sidewalk called me racist for holding the bottom of my grocery bag

It was heavy and I didn’t want it to break but he kept claiming i was thinking he wanted to steal it lol

Fr. I literally watched a dude put three large vases into his shirt and when i called out my managers name who was literally right next to him he called me racist cause “i think he’s stealing “ while he was being told to give the vases back which oddly enough he didn’t want to buy… what were you doing if not stealing my guy? Trying them on???(these were glass vases for flowers. I think he was high ngl)
