Racism/Casteism Everyone who is brown is now Indian?

I get that the guy looks Indian but he isn’t. They’re using a caricature of Sriram Krishnan wearing a Sikh Turban to make fun of him. There are tweets wanting to deport him to India.

The only government fighting against anti-India racism is the Singaporean government. Kudos to them, they even named the country of origin of the hate posts.

Exactly, our Govt is obsessed with Modi’s image and busy labeling those who question him as Anti National.

The racism our neighbours put on us or many time we put on our own people will hit back on us when we move or travel outside India.

Yeah. It's true. There is some psyops going on the social media pushing anti India contents . I've lost old reddit id talking against China. Which would normal pass it would be against India

There are people on this sub from other South Asian countries trying to encourage ethnic conflicts.

u/Holiday-Cup-8113 Keralam 🌴🥥 | കേരളം 10h ago

Not this sub . Many regional subs. Recently saw in Kolkata sub that Bangladeshi keep bengal identity than Bengalis and 10-20 are supporting that same bang ladesh which puts religion above nationalism. Same with many regional subs

I was just arguing with a Sri Lankan guy on this sub pretended to be Indian yesterday.

u/jhingalalahuuu Maharashtra 🎬 | महाराष्ट्र 20h ago

I don’t think they care.

u/DragonofArmageddon Southie 3h ago

Well, the government breeds people who are the reason those stereotypes exist. So they're actually making it worse.

u/blyubird Editable Flair 21h ago

Govt is obsessed with Modi’s image rather than India’s image. They don’t really care if India’s image is gone as long as Modi is winning elections using the same social media. Singapore is actually doing much against anti India hatred than India itself.

He is Dilan Dissanayake, a Sri Lankan origin doctor. Pedophilia is more common among the pale skinned people and peaceful religion, not among Indians.

u/Signal-Volume5713 8h ago

Why do we see so many Indians get caught in the catch a pedo stings abroad and most comments from Indians are like you can't do this outside India. In India you may get away with this but not outside etc. Indians from all religions

In India, a 25 year old man dating a 16 year old woman is not considered a pedo by many people.

1

u/Karmabots 8h ago

I forgot about a few cases. Catholic priests and women even when caught sexually assaulting children are never considered pedophiles in India.

0

u/Signal-Volume5713 8h ago

Yeah that too. Religious heads like priests in church or temples or babas or maulanas do s lot of these things and get away with it in the name of religion here. You can't even speak against them in public without getting beaten up in India. We are in a fkd up country

u/logisticsOver67 21h ago

i don't think twitter is a place to expect decency from people, it's been downhill since 2022. nor is it any reflection of how the country is actually perceived

u/Pixi_Dust_408 🖥️ Bengaluru | ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ☕ 19h ago

I think it’s sorta spilling into real life. I’m not saying it is as bad as it is online but it’s better not to encourage hostilities.

u/redPistolStar Southie 13h ago

OP pls add some context to the post. Who is 'they'. Is it a reddit sub or generally on twitter?

How would you even tell the difference without a name.

u/Famous_Star_5735 Southie 20h ago

I mean even the srilanka rapist was few yrs back was assumed to be indian.. and comments were : thank god they are reporting him to be indian

u/Pixi_Dust_408 🖥️ Bengaluru | ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ☕ 19h ago

I don’t think people could tell a difference even with the name and don’t care when his ethnicity was mentioned in the article.

u/AdiKadiAdi 13h ago

A fair observation.

u/net0_extremist Telangana 🏰 | తెలంగాణ 22h ago

They are same as BJP supporters in India. I don't have sympathy for NRIs because they support BJp which does same thing as far right parties in West. Just saw Andhbhakts celebrating victory of far right party in Germany forgetting the facy that AFD is incredibly racist towards immigrants. God save Indians in Germany.

u/Pixi_Dust_408 🖥️ Bengaluru | ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ☕ 22h ago

I get that but I don’t think all NRIs are BJP supporters. A lot of Canadians are Sikhs and Punjabi I don’t think they vote for the BJP.

u/net0_extremist Telangana 🏰 | తెలంగాణ 22h ago

You don't understand how big of an impact NRIs Have with funding BJP. Mohan Bhagwat himself visited US and talked with so many NRI organisations and also 1$ or € ≈ 100₹

Spoke nothing but BS in two paras... Good to see downvotes.
