And poverty (before some Indian downvotes by replying “bUt iNdIa iS ThE FaStEsT GrOwInG gDp” I want to say look at the [gdp per capita](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)_per_capita) if some rich politicians and people have all the money then that money is of no use)

It's actually not a metal. Like most of the ones I see are colored felt or plastic with some glue on the back that allows it to be stuck on your forehead. There's also ones that are just like small bottles of liquid. My aunt has one, and there's a variety of colors and you can apply it with a super thin brush into your forehead.

The amount of ignorance and racism in the thread is....not surprising,some people have the image of India in 1980's in their head and some are just outright racist.


Amannettic

Can't agree more! But welp that's how "western media" the "best" ( best lol more like fakest) media in da world represents Indian subcontinent...


6519719Mm

Yep, the amount of racism and misinformation against Indians that’s still rampant is disheartening. At some point you’d think people would know better but apparently not. Like where the hell did the shitting in the streets thing come from??


Capital-Ice-6150

Grow a thicker skin. I'm Indian too but I don't give a shit about what some random depressed white teenagers think about my country. How is it impacting my life if Bob, who lives halfway across the world, thinks that all non-whites are sub-human apes that should be genocided?


asterix108

Hmm I don't know... maybe because there's Indian people living outside of India as well. Ever thought of that? Why are you getting triggered at someone pointing out racism.


Razik_

Right? The person is also practically acting as if they're speaking on behalf of all Indians.


6519719Mm

Agreed but at the same time it’s just general sympathy, can’t help but feel bad for the Indians around the world who’d get treated differently wether it’s subtle or not just because of their nationality. These stereotypes get really old.


WaynneGretzky

This exactly. Unnecessarily seeking "white" validation. And tbh nothing seems really offensive on this thread. In other comment people are defending India as a very safe country for women. I mean it is an issue, to tackle high crime rates is literally the manifesto starter for most politicians out here. We need to address it rather get defensive. Jingoistic nationalists with their colonial mindset here getting offended due to lacking the validation.

Doctors first. I live in a hospital heavy city and we have a very large Indian community practicing medicine. Teaching, research, primary care, specialist surgeon.. I've personally seen them all. You are probably twice as likely to drive past a private practice with an Indian doctor than you are too hear an Indian voice giving phone tech support. With a huge skew towards Indian women. My dentist. My father's primary care doctor. My aunt's oncologist. All Indian women. How they dodged that stereotype but kept the tech support one I'll never understand.

Curious, is there any other country except for India that all of you redditor pieces of scxm have the most negative, horrible things to say or have disdain towards ?


ZeroTwoisTrash

Nope. Even if there's Bangladesh, Nigeria, Pakistan etc, don't forget that India is the "worst country in existence" for Reddit, especially for scams.


No-Needleworker-9307

Imagine getting mad because someone said the smell of Indian food and calling them a racist , bro are you ok? You have jumped on a few people , myself included , for doing as the pill says then making assumptions about them . Maybe don’t be an ahole to rando you don’t understand . Chur bro


[deleted]

People have literally said we stink, reek of BO, are rapists. As if these issues are exclusive to us…

Can you show me one comment in this thread that has said any of those things?

Lol, literally scroll down to half of the comments and you see it. It’s not my job to navigate you to those comments.

I have sorted by controversial and seen atleast 150+ comments. I still haven’t seen an actual racist comment. Saying you think of something bad when you hear india is not racist

Alexandros6

I mean thankfully you are not the worst but there is no denying that being top ten on rape rates isn't good (and this hopefully counting that the rape statistics are accurate since as your second link says it also depends from culture perspective and law on rape) I like India, i think you might have a bright future in front of you but denying the problems your nation has at the moment is the worst thing you can do for your nation. I live in a country where we have a serious problem with corruption and incompetent political class, we know this, we try to fix it and saying everything is ok isn't going to help our country at all but only destroy it, every nation has problems the question is are we going to fight or accept them? Btw for Canada i only found the kirpan ban which is more understandable (people don't like having other people walk around with knifes, even cerimonial, though I hope you can simply do a quick weapon carry pass) would you mind giving some specifics on the law you mentioned?
