Am I only one who doesn't like proton services?

For some reasons, I don't get the OTP emails in proton mail. Just the OTP emails..

India needs to take serious actions in Kashmir at this point

Thanks man!!

Thanks man!

What's up with the white sofa?

hatred is truly a universal language

Well I won't say I hate those people in general but I do hate the ones who aren't thankful for it. So yeah, hatred is there and I'm a human

Nah, I know it’s not all rural “marrying little girls to frogs for rain” stuff

That was the storyline for freakin cartoon my sis used to watch. I didn't know if someone recreated it in reality. Well I can't say I'm shocked

But I also know it is still an issue in the cities, and like white folks in America, you get extremely upset and insecure at the idea that other people maybe deserve a fair share of the pie.

Yeah I mean white people in America and general category people in India are shown as the privileged group in their respective countries so usually the govt don't give them much in return. And both the groups starts hating it.

Now the difference which comes here is the White Americans just stay in their country because America is still far ahead in case of development and living standards. But in India, those people usually migrate to some other countries because the parts of India where you can live like a King (the new cities with hundreds of apartments and luxury malls) doesn't get them the "worth it" feeling which they get by staying in Airbnbs in some EU country so eventually they get out of the whole subcontinent

Do you think your Dalit neighbors (if you have any) grew up ignorant of their caste?

Ohh yes they did

I'm from the NE part of india. There are more ST people in here, most of my ST friends are richer than me. They usually have Jordans and 2-3 iPhones (iPhones are expensive in india) but they enjoy the perks of freebies and affirmative actions while earning more than the average indian

Bro I would say one thing for you. Everything you see about india in the news channels isn't real. Neither every people look and speak the same nor everyone gets into arranged marriages

Do you think the fact that you were unaware of your caste might be an indicator of privilege?

People may say I'm playing the victim card but I didn't get a single privilege for that

I didn't know my caste until I was 16 because in cities that shit doesn't exist

I'm kayastha. The community which never followed caste system in the 1900s.. but now I have face affirmative actions because my ancestors were rich in general and had an history of being jamindars (land owners)

Could something analogous be going on in India (with the lower castes in the place of immigrants), in that the ultra-rich people manage to avoid paying taxes commensurate to their wealth by making public policy debate focus on DEI or affirmative action programs?

Yes that's what happens in here

The kind of social security system you're talking about would be the best for India. But that would take 3-4 decades to be fully functional considering the usual rise in communal riots

But neither of the parties (BJP or Congress) would do that because they just want to make the votebank happy who are mostly the uneducated ones in towns, slums and villages

The politics in this country is fkn cinema atp! They wouldn't spend a single penny for the ones who think rationally before voting someone

Brother things doesn't work in India like how it works in US or EU. You have never seen it. I don't expect you all to understand

I just passed out of high school, I could be wrong but it's not that easy for a person like me like how you think it is. Being middle/ upper middle class in india comes with many issue, I can't write all that down and it's not like you would understand either

sucks to be a loser

Well if we talk about merit and as I'm a student. It affected me in JEE exam

My percentile was 89 but still I wasn't selected but an ST guy with 55%ile got selected. BUT HEYY!! I am the loser

I don't wanna argue here about it man. I can't change someone's opinion
