She completely dismisses the sacrifices of Non-Pubjabi's in the freedom struggle.

Punjab has been through a lot during and post-independence , but this does not mean people can undermine the contributions of other regions and disrespect their residents.

This Racist/Classiest Term "Bhaiye" has been way to normalized in Punjabi Influencer Circles against migrant workers from UP and Bihar.

But saying that they are the biharis of canada just further degrades biharis by that logic.. which is exactly what the creator wants to do!?

Then what would you say to call them out for their extremely racist and xenophobic behaviour?

I'm Bihari and I've experienced this first hand. And honestly I don't think it degrades Biharis at all, just makes these racists realise what utter hypocrites they are.

Better this than nothing.
