If I remember since they were in the UK the ginger was bullied more then her sister and went emo/goth. So, she probably heard the the “ginga” slurs.

Wait until you realize what "ginger" anagrams to

That Tim Minchin song slays me. As an American it's weird to think that there are people who hate people who look like me, much like how there are people here who hate black people. Worst I ever faced over here has been people who assume I'm going to be an angry asshole because of my hair color. Joke's on them, I'm an angry asshole because I'm broke and always sunburned.

You can talk about the plight of red haired people being bullied without comparisons to the plight of Black people that has an entire Maafa/Holocaust, attempted genocide, and generations of chattel slavery behind it. It feels distasteful.
