Recently, the ongoing farmers’ protest received far more widespread attention on Twitter, when international celebrities, like Rihanna, Amanda Cerny, Mia Khalifa, etc. started talking about it on social media.

While these celebrities hail from diverse backgrounds, what unites them is an interest in humanity… and the fact that an Indian group, the United Hindu Front, decided to hold a demonstration and burn effigies of three of them, namely Mia Khalifa, Rihanna, and Greta Thunberg.

However, what the demonstration actually got famous for was one particular sign that read, Mia Khalifa “regains consciousness” – a placard that was clearly lost in translation.

But that placard attracted everyone’s attention, including Mia herself. Now, of course, Mia, like most other female celebrities, had a kickass response to the trolling.
Confirming I have in fact regained consciousness, and would like to thank you for your concern, albeit unnecessary. Still standing with the farmers, though ♥️ pic.twitter.com/ttZnYeVLRP

And the internet, like always, wasted no time in commenting on the whole affair.
Congrats on regaining consciousness, @miakhalifa https://t.co/wT6FQ2tmxk

Standing up with farmers.. #FarmersProstest#IStandWithFarmershttps://t.co/c4d7qiAg07 via @indiatoday
Proud of you, Mia Khalifa. You are a woman of conscience. You have frightened the Modi Bhakts, who are wondering when you regained “consciousness”. Thank you for your solidarity with #indianfarmersprotest.

So… A bunch of hindutva peeps used Google translate for “Mia Khalifa hosh mein aa jao” and took the result AKA “Mia Khalifa regain consciousness” to their tantrum gathering.. and I am 50 layers of dying. https://t.co/zLYfa0qYyH
