I feel this weird mix of pity and disgust every time I see Indians kiss the boot that stomped them for centuries. There's nothing else quite like it.

I have this feeling all the time when I'm around just about anyone. So many people love the boot
many people get material benefits from loving the boot. we must convince them that we can give even better benefits or we will never win.
~~if it helps you feel better i have to imagine many of them are from one of the higher castes so they didnt suffer as much under colonialism as the lowest castes.~~
inaccurate see lussy's comment below
High caste Indians didn’t really have it much better. Of course, the monarchs and megawealthy are always insulated but not all upper caste are wealthy or even not dirt poor.
i didnt really think most of them were living it up (hence the "suffering as much" part of the comment) but i'll admit I havent read nearly enough about this subject so i will defer to you here
Is it also one of those things were all the low caste people are poor but all the rich are high caste?
People arguing with AI will always be the funniest shit to me lmao
4chan level racism by like the second top-level reply (and then more in the next few!) is some amazing work cultivating a certain environment on the part of Musk.
X is basically 4chan without the anonymity these days
That's the really fucked up part about it. These people are comfortable connecting their actual real world identity to some of the most toxic bullshit. They are so emboldened that they aren't scared of repercussions.
I think a fair number of the accounts are still functionally anonymous in the sense that our accounts mostly are, except of course for Twitter itself storing more of their information.
And the sad part is that these like indian dudes so badly want to be accepted into the white supremacy party they're willing to put up with the anti-indian racism.
I'm half-white, half-Filipino. Whites will never accept the white portion of my ancestry. I will always be treated as though I'm 100% Asian Pacific Islander. I figured this out a long-ass time ago and want no part in being white.
So it's absolutely baffling when I see PoC with no white ancestry thinking they can get whites to accept them. Whitey will consider other whites not white as soon as they become an inconvenience. We've seen this where Latine people and Arabs had their whiteness revoked post-WWII. If you're already outside of the in-group? You should be vigilant, more than anything, around whites.
I get it's part of internalized racism, but holy shit that only takes you so far. Like what do these people think is going to happen? Whites will exterminate everyone in their ethnic group except them, personally? When has that ever happened when Europeans decide to do genocide?
It is a shocking level of servility that you usually only see in fictional ancient history characters that are hardly believable.
