    What the fuck did India do to earn that hostility? I mean beyond racism.

      It's just racism. Give them a reason to hate India and they'd be all over it talking about how barbaric and rapey they are. Throw in jokes about shitting on the street and posturing about the caste system.

        I hate how shithead westerners can always cherry pick facts about India. It's 1.38 billion people on paper. If a half of a percent of people are doing wiggy shit that's 690,000 people. 99.5% can be totally cool but yes with numbers like that you're still gonna see weird or bad things in snippets. Ignorant asses. Imagine judging all of Europe as a bloc because of Italians being a bunch of pizza tossers. Ooh suddenly its uncool?

          Redditors don't even like it when you judge one white guy on the things that he factually did.

          I'd provide examples but there's a character limit on posts.

          I do this though

          You should regularly refer to random euros as "hans" or "luigi" or just pick a totally random name that doesn't match their ethnicity.

      In some corners of reddit, it's that they cause "so much pollution" even though their per capita ghg emissions are a small faction of US per capita emissions

        Pot meet kettle. Great. USA is a stupid, stupid place. Trust me I live here and the older I get the more I see that confirms it.

        Why eco-cide 1 billion Indians when you can eco-genocide the equivalent of 100 billion Indians?

        unlimited genocide on the first world

      given that reddit is mainly white tech-bros, theyre pissed that Indians are better at their jobs than they are.

        But Americans seem to think the US is perfect just because our discrimination isn’t as explicit most of the time.

        Idk, I feel like unarmed black people getting gunned down on the streets by cops is pretty fucking explicit. I think the idea that American racism is in anyway covert or implicit needs to be reexamined in light of what's been happening.

          I think it's just the way our politicians say they hate balck people is such cultural background noise you need to be a strong anti racist to actually see it.

            If you don't live it, you almost never hear about it. The language is intentionally vague and confusing if anything is reported at all and politicians will introduce the "legalize murder of uppity blacks" bills as "the MLK junior reparations package"

              That's true, but also there's things that are definitely racist but unquestionable to thr average American. "Yeah we need more policing of poor neighborhoods, there's a culture of crime there." Stop and ask what any of this means and it falls apart, but you've heard it from birth, so it sounds correct.
