    That's very presumptuous to say that they don't know what China is when it's the neighboring country. Also, kinda downplaying the racism faced by North eastern Indians because they look like south east Asians and get called the slur starting with ch**kies.

      I'm sorry but have you been to the rural parts of India in UP, Rajasthan, Punjab? I'm not talking about city dwelling shitheads and expats, how much do you think the rural population interacts with northeast Indians, do they even know they exist? Vast swathes of this country is so poor and so uneducated they don't even know a lick of Hindi, the supposed national language. Literally millions of farmers are killing themselves due debt and drought. Of course there is federal and institutional racism against NE Indians but this has nothing to do with China or geopolitcal fears about the country.

          I do because I am one.

          What do you mean, that you are a rural Indian in these states?

              wtf does ‘I do because I am one’ even mean? What point of mine are you addressing? Like, what are you talking about? I’m not asking for your geolocation here.
