I think he meant the Indians working in the Middle East.

  Because he and many other online-only viewpoint pushers only considers the situations where he and his in-group are the victim, not the other way around

The Pakistani Scientist Pervez Hoodbhoy's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pervez_Hoodbhoy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pervez_Hoodbhoy) writing's and videos on Youtube are self-explanatory. See for example; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9qGcghkDsc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9qGcghkDsc

  This has basically nothing to do with the parent comment about Muslim "overlords" treating Indians badly. It's more about how superstitions and belief without applied logic can restrict avenues to worldly success

    You have not understood my and the parent's comment i was responding to. You have to know what the "Sachar Committee" was and its recommendations, to understand why the parent sarcastically referred to it in its comment. My comment will then become clear. Pervez Hoodbhoy has spent a lifetime (and much reviled for it in Pakistan and by most Muslims all over the world) trying to shine a light on why the Islamic culture/society has fallen behind dramatically in Scientific/Economic/Social progress in the 21st century and become regressive/backward. The video i linked to gives a snippet and you can find more detailed analysis in his longer videos (available on Youtube) and books.

      My friend’s father was Hoodbhoy’s class fellow at MIT but thanks for the links.

      It's still not really clear. What does superstition in a community causing it to fall behind scientifically advancing societies have to do with "overlords" treating others badly? The scientifically advanced societies in history often treated the people they ruled over extremely badly. The two are loosely connected at best
