So, I have been both working, studying, and spent leisure time in India about a year in total. I lived for 6 months outside New Delhi in the slums. Made interview among tribes and people displaced by established nature tourism. Together with my wife. Been to tourist spots as well.
Yea you are kind of like a bunch of school kids sometimes. Just a bit scarier. I only encountered the grandiose self image besides India in the US.
My wife could not be alone a second.
The fascist Hindu nationalism is awful to see , for a western fascist probably laughable.
Just to be plain: You think India is best in all the ways , for an outsider it's like a bunch of people throwing everything in a pile and letting the strongest win.
Just the amount of people trying to prove forced marriage is so much better than the possibility for divorce or just marry who you want.
Of course different rules based on caste , one of my Indian friends who is kind of famous in the movie business still have a hard time based on his last name and actually trying to do some good in India.
The ads in your papers sounds like you selling cows rather than your sisters and daughters.
Don't get me wrong there are great people , great movements and great things in India.
But overall WTF...
Today I would not return for leisure unless to visit friends there.
*Edited due to poor wordings.
Well ,I have never said anything about other places (beside the US comparacy), you know since we discussed India...
Indian system is crap and this is true weather other places are crap as well.
But you just have an issue with me since you have an issue with a GOS dev. You should just block me instead of getting your heart rate up.
You know since you can't ban me here like you did before in another place.
This is why Lemmy readership is dropping, btw
0k sure pal, move along now then, hippie.
May that's my hacker skills that does that lol. Again kindly f off you troll. Go bicker with Mickay. I assume it's hard though since you were kicked out everywhere for beeing on his level as well.
