ivorycopper-50 OP

im even not south asian but I see this racism a lot even people who say im not racist make fun of indians but because it has become so normal somehow it isnt even seen as racism also some of my indian or pakistani friends who experience racism just laugh it off as if its normal brotha why u laughing if people made fun of my country I would get hella mad

plaidgarden-51

Bruh ikr

plaidgarden-51

Like I have seen people who say they are not racist

plaidgarden-51

Then think it's ok to make fun of the south asian

plaidgarden-51

Like

plaidgarden-51

They consider south asian

plaidgarden-51

Below human

plaidgarden-51

Like they don't consider them in the same category and think it's ok to make fun

plaidgarden-51

Sometimes people give excuses like , " oh have u seen them " or like " so what they are racist too or wtv "
And so much more like bruh . I usually fight with people in YouTube comments abt this and no matter how many times I say " get a life " they keep on going on abt " SAAR , SAAR " like enuf already bruh . First of all u can't expect a country to not have an accent and we don't even have a continuous steady accent , since there are so many dialects , accents would be different. Not to mention bruh the instant change of behaviour, some people reacted to shower emojis on my intro ( buddy I shower twice , yes I use deodorant, yes I take care of myself ) , this guy online took a "scammer test" of mine . To whoever reading this , I do NOT deny that our countries have problems , but every country has problems but we don't consider u below human for tht . I also get it that there's quite the online harassment from south asian but there only represents a small part of the population. Why cannot people just realise the fact that not every South asian is a bad person , bad people tend to be everywhere

plaidgarden-51

freshbeacon-38

We dont hv caste system bruh it was britishers who created ts system during colonial era

India had varna system

freshbeacon-38

Varna mwans work class not caste

freshbeacon-38

All of ya js believe that tiktok propaganda

plaidgarden-51

Well ofc they do

plaidgarden-51

People have reservations

plaidgarden-51

The constitution has made castes official

plaidgarden-51

Because at that time

plaidgarden-51

The "lower castes" were genuinely living in bad conditions, so to uplift them in society

plaidgarden-51

Reservations in things were introduced

plaidgarden-51

But it hasn't helped much

plaidgarden-51

And now the castes are just used for voting

plaidgarden-51

But still

plaidgarden-51

That shldntt gave people an excuse to justify hating indians😭 😭

plaidgarden-51

Like according to my caste apparantly

plaidgarden-51

My ancestors were oitters

plaidgarden-51

Potters*

plaidgarden-51

But no one in my family does that

plaidgarden-51

So just the name stuck around not the actual job

plaidgarden-51

People were divided into categories of work like the French but then 🤡 🤡

freshbeacon-38

Sure give me one reference from any inian scripture where caste system is justified

freshbeacon-38

India literally doesn't
It's js a propaganda spread thru tiktok nd other means

freshbeacon-38

It's even said that hindus worship millions of gods , drink cow piss nd what not

freshbeacon-38

🫥💔

freshbeacon-38

It doesn't
It's js that people who's ancestors were discriminated during british era are being given reservation in unis

plaidgarden-51

Well I'm not even denying tht:y_shook:

freshbeacon-38

That's it

plaidgarden-51

It hasn't its literally in the constitution

plaidgarden-51

Categorised in castes

plaidgarden-51

He is

plaidgarden-51

He's not denying the existence, he's just saying that we don't think it's justified

freshbeacon-38

Bruh for a system to exist there must be people who follow it

But No one does in india

snowyorange-96

Many indians give their own people bad reputation

snowyorange-96

Thats why people end up stop trusting
