> You are a Pakistani. I have one parent from India, one parent from Pakistan. I know them both well. They are both shithole countries whose populations have a misplaced, unearned, and arrogant sense of pride. India has a massive population living in poverty, and remains fairly backwards in a number of ways. It's not an impressive country. > First learn what "third-world" means. It is not what you think it means. Third-world means those countries who chose to remain non-aligned (part of the Non-Aligned Movement) during the Cold War Era. I am aware this is where the term originated from. But we both know quite well what it actually means in common parlance, and no amount of "but akshully" from you can change that. > India is going to be the next superpower after China whether you like it or not. We will exert our dominance to protect our interests whether you like it or not. If you don't like it you can go fuck yourself. This is tough talk for a country where people live in open sewers in major cities and which recently had to shut down some of those cities due to crisis-level pollution. India cannot compare to China. You can tell people to fuck themselves over the internet because it angers you that a number of people in this thread bursting your nationalist fantasy bubble and still consider your country a second-rate global actor and D-tier place to live, but at the end of the day we live in a country where the standard of living is simply not within India's reach any time soon, and whose success, in terms of economic dominance, and both soft and hard power, India will never be able to attain. > Yes it does and we will enforce it whether you like it or not. We will eliminate all terrorists on Western soil and we will do it with or without your approval. We have already done it in Canada. USA is not any different for us. I would love for the Indian government to be so extreme and reckless so as to keep doing it and force the West to reckon with the kind of country it is and impose some actual penalties--but we both know that India's government, even at their most brazen, are not as courageous as you are over the internet.
