Not only caste, the hatred for minority (in India) has also made it’s way to the West. Some of them just can’t digest meeting the minorities as equals in the West. I remember reading jokes about Sikhs being taxi drivers on Twitter. Casual racism is just thrown around in conversations.

- AverageDude 4y agoI rest my case. The bigotry is not even held back here on HN. Your answers are no different from CCP supporters who say almost similar stuff.
- Cymrukicks 4y agoYeah that was crazy and so blatant, it really allows you to see how pervasive this is when its somewhere you'd think of civil like HN.
- dang 4y agoWe've banned that account. But since you've added a comment about HN, I want to say: it's unrealistic to expect such comments not to appear on any large, open internet forum. As anyone can create an account and post anything, anything that exists in society is going to show up here. All we can do is react once it does.
- esrh 4y agoSikhs being affluent makes it ok? You do know which other group is often singled out for this right? "Everyone's made fun so it's ok" is on the same level as "I'm not racist i hate everyone." It's veiling what people actually think, and thereby not addressing the issue (or even admitting one exists, really) As for democracy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_India https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_India But if you mean "total democracy" in the sense of unchecked oppression of the minority by the majority i think you'd be closer to the truth.
- yinyang_in 4y agoTypical Marxism language, oppressors & oppressed. Who would you say are minority and who is majority in this case of India?
- unmole 4y ago> Breaking India funded soros movement Come on man, atleast have it make sense grammatically. It should be Soros funded Breaking India movement. And you forgot to include references to Urban Naxals, CIA and the Vatican. You need to put in more effort.
- joenot443 4y agoWe let in over 120,000 Indians into Canada every year and that number is only expected to grow. There are parts of Canada where Hindi is spoken more often than English. To paint Canada as “India phobic” is incredibly laughable, when we’ve in fact been the perhaps the Western country _most_ receptive to Indian culture and integration. Can you think of a country which India has helped to the same degree that Canada has helped India?
- hiyer 4y agoIn what way does Indians emigrating to Canada help India? All the Indians migrating and working in Canada are helping Canada only no? Sure, some of them might be remitting some money back to family in India, but that would be a pittance in the overall scheme of things.
- hiyer 4y agoCanada accounts for only 0.6% of India's foreign remittances - https://twitter.com/zahacktanvir/status/1627970651859390467?s=20 https://twitter.com/zahacktanvir/status/1627970651859390467?...

- yinyang_in 4y agoHow “racism”, they all belong to common race unless one gives belief to “Aryan invasion theory” then it’s different case. What would be local word for this hedious system ?
