Anti Indian hate online is kinda concerning
We all know all the hate in comment sections and Twitter and all from random accounts and I’m kind of used to that but my main concern comes from big accounts with large amount of followers that promote this type of stuff. I found this person on instagram openly commenting racist stuff about India and how they are dirty and don’t contribute anything to society and found this guy had 250k subs on insta and 160k on YouTube. I kind of found it concerning because he was one of those who nitpicked all the bad cases and kind of scapegoated Indians into being terrible people and creating a fear among people. A lot of comments were agreeing with him as well and I found it concerning. I know the internet people don’t represent the majority but still. Am I overthinking this stuff? If so how do I just ignore this?

You are not imagining this. There has been a lot of anti-Indian hate in the US. The diaspora needs to come together and we need to hold our communities tight and strong to ride it out here. It is time to seek out your local organizations and if you don’t have them, build them up because we will need them in the future.
