I want to try my best to fit in. Can you please provide tips?

What clothes are best to wear so I don't draw any attention to myself? I believe wearing anything Hindu-related would give me weird looks and hatred, especially from Pakistanis. In my opinion, it's best not to wear anything religious. I want to avoid as much conflict as possible.

If I am in public, what and what can't I display on my screen? I watched anime on my screen, and I got weird gestures from those around me. Is my watching anime creepy or weird? My skin color is brown.

If you have anything else to add that will help me fit in, please let me know.

By the way, I've lived here since my childhood, and I would say I don't like it here, nor do I trust the people. I don't even trust the people who look like me. My 'racism' is stronger than anybody else's, and it wasn't always like this. Living here changed me for the worse. Now I understand why people of my background express extremely 'racist' comments online. We are not welcomed anywhere and are hated by every other group. We also hate each other.
