funny how they cheered for diversity but completely overlooked the caste system

• oaththrowaway 4y ago
  Because they only care about visible diversity

    Because people have a hard time getting the difference between Suunit and Shiit moslems. The caste system is even harder to grasp, for us Westerners Indians are Indians. So it seems caste based discrimination was imported through the back door, without anyone realy noticing.

      from what i’ve read here, it’s isn’t actually a hard concept to grasp it’s just that the managers are deliberately choosing to ignore the issue, because they themselves actually support (or have nothing against) casteism can’t make a diversity meeting bout that

        I am European, know about the caste system and won't be able to tell.

        There are no examples of diaspora communities from the Indian subcontinent that have maintained caste discrimination after immigration stopped. If Indians stop being able to tell the difference I doubt the ability of Westerners to do so.

      It's "Sunni" and "Shiite/Shia".

      There is 0 percent chance a white person could ever tell the caste of an indian. You need to be indian indian. That being said any human can detect wrongful behaviour and is responsible for calling it out.
