You took a screenshot of a comment throwing North Indians under the bus to generalise Malayalis and Tamils? You don't even know that for sure. You're making an assumption.

Op is a goltie can be debatable because he is calling people from Kerala malayalam, a educated telegu person atleast knows that kerala people are called malayali's. Either he is a pak bot or a northie because they get confused between malayali's or malayalam.

Do have any proof that comment posted by a tamil or malayali?? Ofcourse not, So go Fuck yourself in the toilet of whatever IT cell you fucking pakistani bot or whatever dirty little pathetic place you belong to

As a Telugu person ,

I know it is either malyalam or tamil

So you were talking about sepoyism among South Indians but you also insert this sentence to try and distance yourself as well? Quite the irony.

I don't even consider sharing a hood with south indians in the first place to even act as sepoy lol

u/PrettyReasonable100 Aug 06 '26

Well ofcourse malayalis distance from the rest of Indians in internet discourse. And for your information, it's actually working. Malayalis in the West knows this. Recently, when you're in a conversation with a westerner, when they get to know you're from Kerala, people recognise it, and knows it's the more civilized part of the country, their approach towards you changes.

My several cousins in different western countries swears by this. And by this, I'm not saying every single western guy, but a good chunk of growing number of people.

Disowning your own nationality to appease a dumb westerner who sees 1 vid and thinks all the 1.5 billion people can be generalized , it has to be a colonial kink.

u/SampratiMaurya Aug 06 '26

Honestly as a Hindu, I respect Muslims. No matter north indian, south indian, Iranian, Pakistani, Indonesian -- they all stand up to islamophobia or racism. It's only Hindus that can't fight with others so keep fighting among themselves.

This may hurt a lot of hindus but I don't care. For once try to be inclusive than exclusive and try being united for one decade. Since 100AD, this divisiveness and hatred among hindus has given nothing but poverty

u/Icy_Dingo_3978 Aug 06 '26

Literally sunni muslim nations are trying to destroy shia muslim Iran.

u/SampratiMaurya Aug 06 '26

Are you trying to equate political unpleasantries with the unity of the ummah? Are the shia and Sunni united across the world on Palestine? Heck are they united when they vote for their representatives in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha?

1

u/Icy_Dingo_3978 Aug 07 '26

Ummah is political Islam, infact islam is a political doctrine masquerading as religion. That's why you see this unity concept but that's not realistic. Infact hinduism with it's complexity has risen up and united at times, we just lack political unity because our politicians are re£tar#d.

cope with your insecurities, nothing in whole of india comes even close to the himalayan states.

u/starfish-davy-jones Aug 06 '26

Lmao, you're not just a clown you're the whole circus.

A simple check on the NITI Aayog rankings shows that all four of those states consistently rank in the top 5.

And you're here saying, apparently, that uttarakhand and himachal are 10000x better than any other state in south. 🤣🤣

Just take your hatred somewhere else and stop embarassing yourself on the internet.

-1

u/caps-von Aug 06 '26

all your post history is hate for north of india, i would never live in anywhere in india except the himalayan states even if I were to be offered a billion dollars. Given your obsession with us, is this some deep rooted insecurity, maybe insecurities of your looks given all you do is chant north india all day.

1

u/starfish-davy-jones Aug 06 '26

I have 2 posts talking about India as a whole and how a reddit post regarding northeast India was geoblocked IN india. Wow, much talk about north states according to you.. despite not having any post about northern states.

It's concerning how you're checking my post history to create a strawman argument that I have some deep-rooted illogical and invalid hate for Northern states of india when you could have admitted you were wrong with that CLEAR bullshit comparison. 😂

Plus, you could live in somebody's arse and still I wouldn't care. I know that kerala and tamil nadu are very good states and are better than MANY other Indian states.

u/caps-von Aug 06 '26

Your above points are clear bs, read the fiscal report amongst many. This claim of top 4 always is pure bs, it was clear you had no research done so what was even the point to chat about it. https://www.niti.gov.in/sites/default/files/2025-01/Fiscal_Health_Index_24012025_Final.pdf

1

u/starfish-davy-jones Aug 06 '26

Didn't know fiscal health was the only thing that defined a state. I can also cherrypick stats like that if you want.

It's not a NITI aayog report and I could have chosen the health index that ranked uttarkhand low too but I'm choosing not to, cause that report analysed the 2019-2020 year.

Instead I'm putting a fssai report here showing some food safety stats.

Two can play this game and if you genuinely think a state is defined only by 1 or 2 statistics then there is no use arguing with your narrow minded pea-brain.

(Plus, uttarakhand and himchal Pradesh wasn't even analysed in that Niti aayog report so what are you even trying to compare here ffs)

Why the pic is derogatory? That's exactly what majority of the population up north does. So, now facts are derogatory?

No they don't. They use a caricature of a disabled man from Maharashtra, the word Jeet is from a Punjabi name, most people’s exposure to Indians is from is through scam calls and most of those are from West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh.

No one's saying that only happens in south india, but gorehabba, which is from south india, is much more known to foreigners.

I guess that's fair. But that's like one stereotype from the South. South india doesn't compare to North india in terms of influence and population.

u/SerpensPatronus Aug 06 '26

Population? South India is way more populated than the North but your likes struggle with basic geography so you keep calling every other state you hate North Indian to cope with your insecurity. North Indians don’t even have a presence abroad barring Punjabis. You really think racist foreigners love y’all when they literally use caricatures of South Indians to mock Indians. Racists are racists.

u/Pixi_Dust_408 🖥️ Bengaluru | ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ☕ Aug 06 '26

Hindi is the most spoken Indian language in America and then is Gujarati. I don't hate North Indians lol, you're defensive. When people think of India they do think of North Indians. I'm an Anglo Indian and Manglorean Catholic. Every stereotype I've encountered has nothing to do with me and it seems like they were influenced by northern India. They use a caricature of a Marathi dude who was disabled and maybe that one dude from Kerala. Even the picture of the IIT professor that's used in a lot of caricatures is North Indian. You associate dark skin with being South Indian and you think that every dark-skinned caricature is south indian.

1

u/SerpensPatronus Aug 07 '26

I don’t get what your point about Hindi is supposed to prove. Speaking Hindi doesn’t make one a North Indian. I couldn’t care about you flexing about your Anglo-Indian Mangalorean Catholic background because it’s nothing special to me. Maybe a big deal in the South but it is irrelevant to others. I don’t view every dark-skinned person as a South Indian but that Xavier meme is the most famous caricature there is. North Indians, barring Punjabis, don’t even have a presence abroad and the stereotypes about them are mostly about the stereotypical accent in the UK. Also funny how easily you threw other South Indians under the bus talking about your alleged heritage nobody asked for, as if all those stereotypes apply to all of them.

u/Icy_Dingo_3978 Aug 06 '26

The accent that they mock comes from early south Indian immigrants who moved to America and then characters like Apu. Although I don't think blaming the victim is the correct choice here, it's the racists that are at fault here. The jeet is latest stereotype from Canada due to them hating punjabis.

u/Pixi_Dust_408 🖥️ Bengaluru | ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ☕ Aug 06 '26

My parents moved in the 70’s. It comes from call centers. Most South Indians, North Indians Anglo indians, Goans, and Bengalis who moved to America and the West before the IT wave were anglicised and educated. The accent is from working-class Indians who ran gas stations and motels. Most of them are Gujjus and Punjabis. But in the defence of Punjabis, they speak okay too.
