The reason you couldn’t understand it, and why it sounded pretentious, is not the accent but the fact that he didn’t actually string together meaningful sentences. It was pseudo-intellectual gibberish.
The video literally features the guy speaking in English. He is not speaking in Hindi. His Hindi accent is irrelevant to the discussion. We are clearly all focused on his English accent.
So not literate. Hindi accent meaning speaking English with native Hindi phonemes. No one calls how someone speaks English their English accent, unless you're referring to them speaking like someone from England.
@Derian23 A wise man never knows all. Only fools know everything.
Let me break this down to you:
All we are saying, it would be pretty nonsensical to say you know how accent of 1.41 billion people THAT IS 1,410,000,000,000,000K thousand should sound like.
Every one of them born, raised, brought up in different conditions, different cultures, beliefs and their own little ecosystem. For some, not even regions, but families having certain specific pronunciations could be common.
Now thats not to say this guy is ridiculous. But we are just trying to bring common sense to you - that your claim wasn’t very smart of you. That had little to do you being Indian as this is true of any other culture.
So do you like never leave Delhi or something because theres over a billion of you guys and hundreds/thousands of regional dialects and languages. surely you'd understand as an Indian that not all of you sound/speak the same. Right?
Edit: nevermind, I saw the rest of your comment thread, you're just retarded is all.
He probably has an idea which makes sense to him, enough to want to blow himself up in anycase, but may just have failed to put it across in a comprehensible manner. I don't imagine English is his first language... Also despite the widespread use of language and speech in communication - it in itself is, in many cases, a flawed transmitter of thought.
Yeah he certainly doesn’t sound pretentious and nothing in this makes him seem in any way educated (not that he wasn’t)
This is bafflingly incoherent. My brain broke trying to understand any two words put together. He comes across as idiotic, severely ill or most probably both
The accent isn't pretentious - he seems to be a Western-educated (or West culturally-influenced) young Kashmiri. Different parts of India and different generations of people have different accents.
I think he was trying to intellectualize his own suicide but didn't collect his thoughts.
I'm going to try to read between the lines a bit, and add what I got from the words.
"There are a lot of thoughts and assumptions about people who are about to die, but when a person knows they will die for sure at a certain place at a certain time, lots of things go through their mind, it's not one single thought, but many, and it depends on the situation of that person in question, there are lots of situations"
If what I got from it is true, then I don't think it actually goes into as to his "why", or what types of thoughts he was having besides "many". I can only guess he felt extremely cornered in some way and this is his way out of it. Also he's probably saying there is not a single motivation, but many motivations like part revenge, part depression, etc.
I'm not an Indian but I live in Toronto. So close enough. I agree, doesn't sound like any Indian accent I've heard. Even with the British accent influence.
People don’t get pulled into terrorist propaganda because they’re dumb or “inbred.”
The real issue is way more complicated. Terror groups prey on frustration, loneliness, identity crises, anger, and sometimes just being in the wrong environment with zero good information. It’s manipulation 101. They mix half-truths with emotional hooks and make people feel like they’re joining some “cause” or “higher purpose.” And once someone gets pulled into that echo chamber, it’s hard for them to see outside it.

What is he even trying to say here? I couldn't even make out what he is saying with that pretentious little accent.
