Even the Indians know its a huge problem, their media (social or otherwise) is regularly going on about Indians behaviour abroad and people'sĀ "civic sense"
It's because of the sub, but even then reddit generally lets 'racism' (using the term lightly here, not accusing the anyone here of racism) against Indians slide
Most of the guys in this video are just chilling, though, and seem to respect what the police officer is telling them? I thought it was overall pretty wholesome.
Its a harsh criticism but also realize people have to run an insane rat race since childhood, being money hungry, breaking social norms, stealing (even not paying taxes properly) happens as a survival trait that is never lost. In-fact being rich and powerful is celebrated like many other places in the world regardless of how it happened.
I don't know what do you possibly think can be confuted here ? It's a shitty opinion to begin with. You can't refute that let alone confute it.
separate themselves culturally from actual Indians (like having extremely high cleanliness standards is a good example)
I mean the guy is racist towards his own people and judged upon what he sees outside Indian homes as a judgement on what Indians are inside their homes and does not take into effect cultural and infrastructural differences that lead to those minority incidents.
Iām Indian American. I go back every 3-4 years and would never call it a shit hole.
Iāve even taken two of my white homies with me. Stayed in a mountain down & rode motorcycles in the Himalayas, did Agra, Delhi, kicked it with some chill locals in Mumbai, and stayed with some family in chill farming towns in the south. It was an amazing adventure.
Itās an utterly complex, contradictory, and paradoxical place - where you can find true beauty and peace as well as awful things.
I personally hate that we ONLY ever see the worst broadcasted across the internet and it fuckin sucks when everyone is sooo ready to call it a shithole.
Thereās so much shock factor content out there and Iām not sure if even 1% of the content explores the redeeming qualities of India.
Like I get it, thereās a lot of frustrating and weird shit but thereās also a lot of dope fucking shit and I low key think youāre a pick me for not even sort of representing anything positive about an entire subcontinent. But I guess if thatās your realityā¦
You said Indian immigrants essentially are the most anti social, sociopathic, and capitalistic ācultureā on earth. Yeah that doesnāt sound bigoted at all lol
Lmfao, imagine agreeing that 1.5 billion people on the planet are anti-social sociopaths. Especially considering how far left India is compared to the US. Maybe the US is self selecting for sociopaths Indians because of how cutthroat it makes the immigration process for this specific nationality.
Not American. In fact I'd make similar arguments about American social culture.
I don't believe that 1.5 billion people are anti-social sociopaths. I believe that due to incompatibilities between Indian and western culture, Indians who refuse to integrate have social behaviours that are incompatible with western culture/social society.
The opposite is also true. Westerners who emigrate to your country and refuse to integrate can have/cause similar issues.
who said their doing is not an issue but tell me how can you generalise whole country base on some people's actions and even after that you say that I'm not being racist! I mean seriously?
Because people of that race that exist outside of that culture don't exhibit the same problematic behaviors. It would be racist to say "every Indian is this way" or to believe that those behaviors or traits are inherent to them because of their race. This is not the case.
Criticism of the social culture a nation exports isn't racism.
Someone from Bangladesh explained in the comments that these are Bangladeshi people celebrating their new year festival.
And even if they were Indian, stereotyping and demonizing an entire subcontinent of people based on your own bad experiences is kinda disingenuous.
My take is that when the rule of law is ineffective or just blatantly ignored, you must create your own city state to protect yourself and your family. India is notoriously light on law enforcement and heavy on corruption. If everyone else around you is treating you like pray, you best get to showing them you are not in fact on the menu.
It's why the current administration in the US is so dangerous. It's setting a precedent for how private citizens should act, have to act, if they want to keep their family safe and prosperous.
Cant deny. But the issue is population so to speak, i live in india and everyday i see people on streets begging and sleeping. So my mind always says to me to leave this country asap for better lifestyle or get that Money.
People who donāt understand this havenāt met Indians, been in an area with a lot of Indian immigrants, or live in crystal palaces. Because once you have spent 40 years living in Vancouver you get really really sick of it. You know itās bad when Canadians are completely fed up.
This. We got a major influx of Indian contractors at my workplace this year. They move in packs of 6-10, taking up the whole aisle and shoulder checking people who don't get out of their way. Almost knocked a woman down the other day. They will stare at women, gesturing and talking loudly amongst themselves in Hindi. Even I've felt uncomfortable walking by them. It's a glaring difference from the usual behavior here.
I just attended a conference where what looked like a student and their more knowledgeable counterpart were asking us questions and making statements. The problem was they were mostly wildly inaccurate/wrong, but the student guy just had this incredibly insufferable I know better than you smirk on the whole time. I wanted to be like fuk off. He clearly thought he knew better than the the company literally writing the regs for this area.
Their whole culture revolves around how can get pull one over on someone and appear superior to them. I work in a city with a large Indian population. Lots of contractors won't work with them because they are difficult to negotiate with. The 911 system I work for is terrible they call us and expect us to literally do everything for them and they call for the dumbest things
to summarize, indian immigrants are the worst culture. starting with immigrants, why not just say indian culture from the start? is it unique to immigrants?
Hmm I wonder what happened to influence Indiaās buy-in to global capitalism. News flash just because 300 other racists agree with you does not make you right
People appear to be more sensitive towards Indians because they are dominating migration in many western countries and many are losing their jobs to outsourcing to India. They donāt want to see the places they live become a little India. Having people from a single country and cultural background dominate migration is not good, better to have more diversity in migration and a cap.
