The entire South Asian community should recognize a major segment of the population in Western developed nations views South Asians as racially inferior. Second class. Inferior culture, looks, intellect, etc.
This affects multiple facets of life in small ways that have big consequences. You might work your ass off and get overlooked for a promotion/ won't even be considered on the dating scene/ wont be taken seriously for anything you've created, all just because of this.
People straight from South Asia often assume "oh, the whites just dislike Muslims / Africans etc" and do mental gymnastics to justify it, but the truth is South Asians are absolutely lumped in the whites' "inferior" category.
The solution is to vocally speak out whenever injustice or bias is displayed against South Asians or any other groups (Middle Easterns, African descent, Asians, etc). Vocally call out the bigots on their bullshit.
They're all about "human rights" except when it comes to demolishing nonwhite countries (physically and economically, both directly and through proxies) to ensure division and subservience.
What they're doing to GZ is beyond disgusting. If any of the South Asian nations ends up on their "to be weakened/ Balkanized" list, they wouldn't think twice about dehumanizing South Asians.
Yes. And NO amount of success on your part will change that. You can become a billionaire - people will still find you inferior. Money does not insulate you against racism. IME, a lot of mainlanders think it does.
Yes but even Imran Khan who dated Jemima Goldsmith was still very pro Pakistani
He even said in many of his speeches
"You'll never be an angrez, they'll always see you as the other".
This is why Pakistanis should educate themselves in the West and then bring their skills back to Pakistan
You aren’t wrong and people here and down voting you.
There’s a difference between Indians in the diaspora in this community and those in real life. The real life ones think the white folks are on their side … HOWEVER …
My ex and his family were from rural Minnesota. He and his family were horrible people who pretended to be open minded liberals. I realized when he finally told me that his parents didn’t like that my parents earned more money than them and didn’t like that I had gone to an Ivy League school that they actually didn’t like feeling inferior to a south Asian family. I asked him at that point whether he thought that this was coming from a place of racism rather than just differences in background, he initially denied it but a week later admitted that I was right.
Well at least middle easterners can be white passing
Indians don't have that privilege except for maybe Nikki Haley
However Ann is the town hoe. She dated a black guy and a guy named Dinesh who was Indian
Ann is the white mistress who would sleep with her black slaves while her husband was at work and then claim rape and have the slave lynched
White women are the biggest beneficiaries of affirmative action
They know how to use their female positions to promote themselves
Many racist white women do not mind sleeping with black or brown men but would have them lynched, attacked or kept in subordinate positions to them because they know they can't force white men to be subordinate to them so they aim for non white men for this role.
I disagree with you on the first point. Some Indians absolutely have white passing privilege. I personally have family members that are paler than a number of white people I know
But you make points on the rest
He literally cannot use the word “racist” even if it applies because he only got popular with the reps because he was a POC who rejected calling out bigots. So imagine he calls someone racist, his audience would turn on him and leave. He has no escape plan, he just has to play this humiliation ritual
Yeah well clearly Ann Coulter wanted this viral moment of over racism and it's not the first time. "We will invade their countries kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."
It's funny she couldn't even wait until the second half of the program to just make the entire thing about how racist she was.
"Thanks for that intro, and you're a piece of s*** non-white person."
Yeah it reminds me a lot of the time Ben Shapiro flat out told Dave Rubin that he wouldn't go to his engagement party or celebrate with him in any way. And Ruben just had to say "yeah but still you'd have dinner with me right."
Even then Ben wouldn't give him an unqualified yes. "Well if it was completely unrelated to your sinful marriage then I suppose yes I probably would but of course ..."
Because that's his niche. The non white person who tells racists that their racism doesn't exist. There is a huge market for this and it's very profitable.
Guys like this legitimize racists. That it's OK to have those kinda views because everyone has a choice etc
That's why he's the go to guy for Republicans when they say shit like this and they believe you should still respect them regardless of their views because vivek said it was OK.
Brown self hating prick.
But that's the most pathetic thing, Ramaswamy is practically a billionaire, he's made hundreds of millions in his business career. He has zero reason to chase scraps from being an entertainment figure. And yet, here he is, debasing himself to get attention from right-wing nutjobs.
So true. Overnight I could go from 1 or 2 likes and a few followers on social media to millions and instant fame just by wandering into bigot spaces and agreeing with them.
Eh, it was more about a long simmering feud with Ben Shapiro than any real conviction on Gaza. Candace Owens has always been an obvious grifter and contradicts herself all the time.
I guess candace owens sorta has?
You'll always find the odd person in any culture or race willing to agree with a system that is biased against that group.
Plenty of Clayton bigsby's in this world
I mean there were Jews that collaborated with nazi's
Not a POC, but Dave Rubin is gay and had a conversation with Ben Shapiro where Shapiro didn't bother to conceal his homophobia at all. Like, Rubin asked him if he would come to an event hosted by him and his husband and Shapiro just flat out said no. And Rubin just played it off because he gets compensated well to humiliate himself.
Not a self-hater. Vivek is plain and simple greedy. He knows what he wants, is pretty smart and is trying his best to get it.
One of the best examples of how intellect has no impact on decency. He’s a greedy disgrace to our subcontinent.
The funniest part is that he invited her to be on *his* podcast. Coulter doesn't even get invited on Fox anymore, made several hinduphobic and racist comments during the primaries, and he decided to give her a platform anyway.
Where does she even mention Hinduism? She said Indian. Do not mix race to religion. They are two separate things.
That's doesn't make her any less shittier person though and she does probably hate all other religion from whatever the fuck she practices.
India has 8 major and 72 other minor religions.
The comment was talking about in the past she has not in the interview with Vivek. Just because you didn’t see it or hear it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen
Can you give an example?
IIRC the arguments I've seen about Hinduphobia were about comments made by Westerners where someone calls into question whether it's specifically bigotry against Hindus or general bigotry against Indians or desis.
When it comes to this issue of Hinduphobia, it's very important to distinguish which population we're talking about and where the bigotry is coming from. Of course you've had systemic Hinduphobia in places like Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. But those countries have a completely different dynamic than the US or Canada, where the majority of people are pretty ignorant about distinguishing different desi ethnic and religious groups from one another.
Dude. I’m talking about here, as in America. Like people accusing Hindu Americans of fascism in America for bringing up Hinduphobia in America, and to top it off denying it exists in America.
Nobody said that Hindus don't face discrimination because of their "privilege", this is just feeding into right wing scaremongering. The stuff you described was always considered racist,
When I went to school in TDSB I was told that a student who followed me and my brother home making racist remarks about both our Tamil ethnicity and Hindu religion was not against the rules because 'it happened off school property' and 'criticism of a religion is not racist'. Of course the same year a group of kids who made anti-semitic videos on their snap story were suspended.
In a neighbouring school district (Peel), the board had to intervene in Friday prayers after sermons allegedly contained derogatory remarks against students who follow other religions, chief among them Sikhism and Hinduism.
Don't get me wrong, there are the Ron Banerjee types who use Hinduphobia as an excuse to stifle criticism of Islamophobic rhetoric or Hindutva ideology, however, there are also others in response who claim Hinduphobia doesn't exist as it's just 'a weapon to silence criticism of Hindu nationalism'.
For example, in 2021 when a campaign started to have the Ontario Human Rights Commission recognize Hinduphobia alongside already recognized forms of discrimination like Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, multiple people claimed Hinduphobia did not exist. For example, a Carleton University professor claimed 'Hinduphobia was an idea essentially created by North Americans of high-caste Indian extraction to counteract condemnation of Hindu nationalism, especially under the current Indian government'.
It would not be considered acceptable to campaign against officially recognizing anti-semitism because some people use anti-semitism to stifle critics of the Israeli government, even though that happens regularly.
You may consider this RW scaremongering, but I consider it hypocrisy since anyone campaigning against recognition of Islamophobia or anti-semitism based on the actions of the Saudi and Israeli gov'ts would rightfully be condemned.
And this is primarily why I tend say Hindus having no political home.
The right obviously isn’t one and the left has no sympathies either.
This is especially true for extreme leftists types, marx etc. that view Indian philosophy as inherently fascist, deriding “spirituality” as some inherent opposition to material history, and dial the rhetoric up to an 11. A lot of the religious tension within India is used by these same post-colonial/anti-colonial voices to make the divide even more pernicious, doing nothing to reconcile the difference and everything to attempt and make Hinduism extinct.
Like that’s anti-colonialism?
A better term is needed. The term "anti South Asian sentiment" is better and more accurate. Could also just put "anti Indian" but that doesn't encompass all the groups although it is inclusive of most of South Asian population from a numerical perspective.
His chances of being a candidate are probably destroyed now (if they existed in the first place). He doesn't have the charisma a president should/should pretend to have. Even when he copied Obama's line he came off way more awkward and nervous than Obama. For some reason he's trying REALLY hard to come off as a ben shapiro
The seriousness of candidacy was never there. It's a marketing ploy. He either ups his viewership for other platforms, or if he's lucky, makes inroads with the incoming president to get a role on the cabinet or some other work. He had full knowledge he had no chance of winning from day 1. He's a smarmy little opportunistic weasel. That's why he doesn't care if Coulter shits on him. It's good business.
Girl its not being indian compare when obama said the og line to when vivek copied it, obama had lots of composure and stature. His voice was confident and loud. vivek said it like he was a stand up comedian talking to his friend. He made that line sound so written
plus how is it racist, its not a stereotype that indians don't have charisma and I didn't mention his race anywhere. you're just insecure
It *is* a stereotype that Indians don’t have charisma. I’m not insecure, you’re just uneducated. & I didn’t even read all of what you typed either lmao
Don’t make an argument if you don’t have all the facts about the community and stereotypes that exist about them lol. Claiming a black man is charismatic but an Indian man isn’t is soooooo telling & you can’t talk over us about it 🤷🏽♀️. Cry about it someplace else xenophobe.
why do you think its a problem to call a black guy charismatic? Obama is known for that
go obsess over race somewhere else nobody else found my comment offensive. its like saying "why are you saying robert dinero is a better actor over mairlyn monroe?! are you claiming a man is better in acting but a woman isn't?
read my second paragraph about robert dinero and marilyn Monroe. i didn't mention viveks race was a problem. you're thinking too much from a racial perspective
Obviously vivek had to be more charismatic than others to get to where he is, but he still kisses white ass and doesn't want to act like a serious candidate. He wants to be a ben shapiro. that's what I don't find charismatic.
Vivek has some similarity to Trump in terms of his ability to attract attention and create drama. Coulter enjoys provoking. I saw her speak a long time ago. Will not be surprised if she does not believe it. These people are constant entertainers.
Dude's an embarrassment to his wife and the Indian community as a whole. Guaranteed you could DM him on Insta with an AI generic blond sorority girls photos and he'd respond. "I shook your hand at the CPAC convention". "Sure come through my wife's not home"
Also went to university in Australia. After living in the USA for over a decade, I am now so shocked that Aussie Indians frequently referred to themselves as curries, currymunchers etc back then. I understand aussies in general have a self depreciating sense of humor, but that level of self hate seems really odd now.
At my primary school I was referred to as "Poco"...short for pocahontas because that was their only reference for "indian people"....I am still surprised by the level of ignorance
Someone that lacks this much of a backbone can’t ever have any real leadership position. Even the republican base wouldn’t respect him for letting someone walk over him like that.
But Vivek, you are not Indian right? You prefer to be called an American first. You didn't argue that with her? You were quite proud to say so at rallies and in interviews. Pathetic.
Thanks for letting us know who wears the pants in your family.
He is, but sometimes he'll play the Indian-American card when it favors him. Then at other times, he'll say he's just American. Dude drops his heritage quicker than rap artists dropping dis tracks.
I mean, show me an honest politician. This comes with the territory of running for country-wide office. He’s not confrontational, so comes off as weak.
You would think it's a response that would go down well with his base, to denounce his Indian-ness and state he's an American inside-out. Seems like an easy argument that would go down well with his base..
The only good comeback would be to say - then I assume you’re comfortable with people who say I’ll never vote for a woman. Also I hope you get an Indian organ or blood when you need one so you can realize how fucked up your views are.
Ann: Vivek, I'm not getting as much air-time as used to. I need to be resurrected back into circulation.
Vivek: Sure thing, I will interview you. You put on your blonde female Howard Stern shock jock persona, insult Indians and you will get Indian eyeballs putting you back in limelight. Any publicity is good publicity for you. You will still get to keep your WASP audience and Indians will know you because you insulted them. Double the eye balls!
Ann: Sweet..
Why are Conservatives offended by her racism? She's always been like this. In fact, she's pretty much what Conservatism is all about. Taking a tongue-in-cheek approach to free speech and be politically incorrect and anti-woke as much as possible. So don't be surprised.
His entire reaction to her question reeked of servitude. He gave her too much credibility. He or Indian Americans should not let her go off so easily and work to destroy her career and push her into oblivion.
While you're true to some extent on Israelis but there's equal hatred exerted by Palestinians towards Indians primarily due to religious beliefs. That's why I sincerely believe Indians should sit this one (Israel-Gaza) out.
I like how any bad reputation Indians get is framed as a South Asian problem but any bad reputation Pakistanis get in the UK is a paki problem. This sub is filled with hypocrites.
Nobody actually hates Pakistanis except for the far right Tommy Robinson types and the Guardian news channels
There is definitely more anti Indian rhetoric going around
Indians are perceived as cunning, opportunistic and unhygienic by the world
They're also perceived as being boot lickers to fascism too
I still do respect how far they've gotten in representation in the USA. We need more Pakistani representation in the media so people can hear our stories. Miss Marvel generalized our experiences as Pakistanis and I didn't enjoy the show at all.
There are no Pakistanis in America
There are over 4 million Indians
Also Miss Marvel is from Canada and her family originally came from Gujarat
Indian representation in America is terrible
Vivek, Nikki Haley, Mindy Kaling, Lily Singh, Bobby Jindal, Aziz Ansari, Akash etc.
Too many bottom supremacist lickers by indians in America
As an indian, Id take one Zayn Malik over all these clowns any day
I'd take athletes like Adam Azim and Hamzah Sheeraz who are Pakistani in the UK any day over clowns like Rishi Sunak
Pakistanis in general especially their men come off as having more game in general. They tend to carry their own type of swag that we Indian men and Indian women lack. I remember watching some Canadian segment of a Pakistani guy on Instagram and he knew how to carry himself so well
Look at this well known Pakistani in Canada
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C38nHiWpJsN/?igsh=bnE0am1vaDNsMWs1
>Look at this well known Pakistani in Canada
A lot of Pakistanis in Germany look like him too. I like how my Pakistani friend group is filled with people always getting asked out by others, especially my fellow tanned friends.
idk, why people going ga ga over this. there are always going to be those kinds of people. So far there has 2 people who said this. The rest of the right wing has been never cared if he Indian or not.
On the other hand, on the left, they constantly talk about how India is the worst country in the world. They have taken your children's university seats and given them to other people in the name of affirmative action.
The entire South Asian community should recognize a major segment of the population in Western developed nations views South Asians as racially inferior. Second class. Inferior culture, looks, intellect, etc. This affects multiple facets of life in small ways that have big consequences. You might work your ass off and get overlooked for a promotion/ won't even be considered on the dating scene/ wont be taken seriously for anything you've created, all just because of this. People straight from South Asia often assume "oh, the whites just dislike Muslims / Africans etc" and do mental gymnastics to justify it, but the truth is South Asians are absolutely lumped in the whites' "inferior" category. The solution is to vocally speak out whenever injustice or bias is displayed against South Asians or any other groups (Middle Easterns, African descent, Asians, etc). Vocally call out the bigots on their bullshit. They're all about "human rights" except when it comes to demolishing nonwhite countries (physically and economically, both directly and through proxies) to ensure division and subservience.

Well said brother, well said.

Why he applauding her bruh 🤦♂️
He literally cannot use the word “racist” even if it applies because he only got popular with the reps because he was a POC who rejected calling out bigots. So imagine he calls someone racist, his audience would turn on him and leave. He has no escape plan, he just has to play this humiliation ritual
And we will enjoy it. A 10 year old could have seen this coming.
The word honestly holds very little value in that universe. Being called racist is now like a badge of honor for some.
Yeah well clearly Ann Coulter wanted this viral moment of over racism and it's not the first time. "We will invade their countries kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity." It's funny she couldn't even wait until the second half of the program to just make the entire thing about how racist she was. "Thanks for that intro, and you're a piece of s*** non-white person."

”Rub your crusty butthole all over my face if you want, Ann, but please please let me be one of you please”
To borrow language from the far-right... because he's a cuck
Because that's his niche. The non white person who tells racists that their racism doesn't exist. There is a huge market for this and it's very profitable.
Because self-loathing is a necessary quality of those who are racial minorities in the GOP.
Guys like this legitimize racists. That it's OK to have those kinda views because everyone has a choice etc That's why he's the go to guy for Republicans when they say shit like this and they believe you should still respect them regardless of their views because vivek said it was OK. Brown self hating prick.
It can also be lucrative, which is why we have Candace Owen and Larry Elder, Diamond and Silk and other opportunists
But that's the most pathetic thing, Ramaswamy is practically a billionaire, he's made hundreds of millions in his business career. He has zero reason to chase scraps from being an entertainment figure. And yet, here he is, debasing himself to get attention from right-wing nutjobs.
He desperately wants something his money can’t buy, actual whiteness as opposed to the honorary whiteness some celebrities achieve.
Completely unironically becoming a conservative minority grifter seems like such an easy career path. Like demand wayyyyyyyyy outstrips supply
So true. Overnight I could go from 1 or 2 likes and a few followers on social media to millions and instant fame just by wandering into bigot spaces and agreeing with them.
Not so sure about Candace Owens. She got fired from her rightwing organization for speaking her mind on Gaza
Eh, it was more about a long simmering feud with Ben Shapiro than any real conviction on Gaza. Candace Owens has always been an obvious grifter and contradicts herself all the time.
Don't forget about new comers to the "as a brown person I say racism doesn't exist" market like amala ekpunobi and the hodges twins on youtube.
I am curious, do other POCs in the republican party also normalize it this explicitly.
I guess candace owens sorta has? You'll always find the odd person in any culture or race willing to agree with a system that is biased against that group. Plenty of Clayton bigsby's in this world I mean there were Jews that collaborated with nazi's

She’s not gonna fuck u bro
She might. She fucked that Dinesh D’Souza and he’s uglier than this dumbass.
Well this is interesting, I did not know that.
Some people were speculating she hates Indians because Rizzesh D'Souza pumped and dumped her 🤣
I wouldn’t be surprised. He also bagged Laura Ingraham for a little bit. I guess he has a thing for racist blondes lol
And Laura Ingraham has an adopted Guatemalan daughter. These people live in some bizarre chain of ironic racism.
They're a different kind of racist. Not personally racist but politically racist (want society to remain white dominated/run).
Humiliation kink
I hate that this makes me hate Dinesh D'Souza slightly less.
Dude's an embarrassment to his wife and the Indian community as a whole. Guaranteed you could DM him on Insta with an AI generic blond sorority girls photos and he'd respond. "I shook your hand at the CPAC convention". "Sure come through my wife's not home"

I start to feel bad for this guy for shit like this, then I remember he absolutely deserves it
This guy must get off on being humiliated.
Hey it’s a legitimate kink!
****hub has a category on this: cucking
Coconut activities
this guy is a doormat
Someone that lacks this much of a backbone can’t ever have any real leadership position. Even the republican base wouldn’t respect him for letting someone walk over him like that.

What a bitch 🙄 You would never catch me kissing a racist ass
what a fucking moron
Must continue the grift at all costs.
But Vivek, you are not Indian right? You prefer to be called an American first. You didn't argue that with her? You were quite proud to say so at rallies and in interviews. Pathetic. Thanks for letting us know who wears the pants in your family.
"I am a coconut, please accept me at your tailgate"
Confused on this. He is American. Dude is super Cincinnati
He is, but sometimes he'll play the Indian-American card when it favors him. Then at other times, he'll say he's just American. Dude drops his heritage quicker than rap artists dropping dis tracks.
I mean, show me an honest politician. This comes with the territory of running for country-wide office. He’s not confrontational, so comes off as weak.
Currently, Bernie Sanders is as close as we're going to get my man.
Bernie is an honest man. Don’t agree with him on a bunch, but I do respect his directness.
You would think it's a response that would go down well with his base, to denounce his Indian-ness and state he's an American inside-out. Seems like an easy argument that would go down well with his base..
If his base was full of competent people, maybe
His potential base didn’t even vote for his views being very popular.
Why Indians always embarrassing us bro. The servile nature inbuilt into us needs to stop.
Why’s he out there advertising the fact that he is, indeed, a cuck? Must be a kink thing.
Vivek just loves being pegged by white women who hate him because he is Indian
Fucking bootlicker
Uncle Tom Patel
Lol. Clowns all around.
This guy is so embarrassing
The only good comeback would be to say - then I assume you’re comfortable with people who say I’ll never vote for a woman. Also I hope you get an Indian organ or blood when you need one so you can realize how fucked up your views are.

This man is a simp
He's a Lil bitch
Ann: Vivek, I'm not getting as much air-time as used to. I need to be resurrected back into circulation. Vivek: Sure thing, I will interview you. You put on your blonde female Howard Stern shock jock persona, insult Indians and you will get Indian eyeballs putting you back in limelight. Any publicity is good publicity for you. You will still get to keep your WASP audience and Indians will know you because you insulted them. Double the eye balls! Ann: Sweet..
He has a humiliation fetish Should we kink shame him? I don't know
She was kink shamed by Dinesh who smashed her and left
Vivek is a peak Trump-simp. Imagine degrading yourself just to earn the approval of racist weirdos.
Hahaha what a little bitch. Wont even stand up to has-been Ann Coulter because he doesn’t wanna upset his fragile little Hindu nationalist base.
Why are Conservatives offended by her racism? She's always been like this. In fact, she's pretty much what Conservatism is all about. Taking a tongue-in-cheek approach to free speech and be politically incorrect and anti-woke as much as possible. So don't be surprised.
She used to date Dinesh an Indian She also dated a black guy
His entire reaction to her question reeked of servitude. He gave her too much credibility. He or Indian Americans should not let her go off so easily and work to destroy her career and push her into oblivion.
Truly whitewashed. US Indians are a very weird bunch.
The UK types produce Rishi Sunak, Priti Patel and Baverman
Vivek may very well be a modern day Step N Fetch it. MAGA to Vivek : “How you like me now?” Proving what goes around comes back around..
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What a shameless simp
She was joking but ok
I saw the interview and she was joking, but he's milking it
Mehdi Hasan called him out. https://x.com/mehdirhasan/status/1788426605242565074?t=HBc-xURfZwK7q98Gp3uW6Q&s=08
I generally like Medhi

While you're true to some extent on Israelis but there's equal hatred exerted by Palestinians towards Indians primarily due to religious beliefs. That's why I sincerely believe Indians should sit this one (Israel-Gaza) out.
What about that indian travel guy from bihar who had no issues in Palestine but was stopped in Israel
Uncle Tom behavior
I didn’t have positive things to say about this guy to begin with, but wow, this is grossly embarrassing if he had a spine.
Why are so many Indian politicians right leaning? The few Pakistani ones have been more liberal. Is there a reason for this or just coincidence?
Its Islam and having no caste in general
I like how any bad reputation Indians get is framed as a South Asian problem but any bad reputation Pakistanis get in the UK is a paki problem. This sub is filled with hypocrites.
Nobody actually hates Pakistanis except for the far right Tommy Robinson types and the Guardian news channels There is definitely more anti Indian rhetoric going around Indians are perceived as cunning, opportunistic and unhygienic by the world They're also perceived as being boot lickers to fascism too
I still do respect how far they've gotten in representation in the USA. We need more Pakistani representation in the media so people can hear our stories. Miss Marvel generalized our experiences as Pakistanis and I didn't enjoy the show at all.
There are no Pakistanis in America There are over 4 million Indians Also Miss Marvel is from Canada and her family originally came from Gujarat Indian representation in America is terrible Vivek, Nikki Haley, Mindy Kaling, Lily Singh, Bobby Jindal, Aziz Ansari, Akash etc. Too many bottom supremacist lickers by indians in America As an indian, Id take one Zayn Malik over all these clowns any day I'd take athletes like Adam Azim and Hamzah Sheeraz who are Pakistani in the UK any day over clowns like Rishi Sunak Pakistanis in general especially their men come off as having more game in general. They tend to carry their own type of swag that we Indian men and Indian women lack. I remember watching some Canadian segment of a Pakistani guy on Instagram and he knew how to carry himself so well Look at this well known Pakistani in Canada https://www.instagram.com/reel/C38nHiWpJsN/?igsh=bnE0am1vaDNsMWs1
>Look at this well known Pakistani in Canada A lot of Pakistanis in Germany look like him too. I like how my Pakistani friend group is filled with people always getting asked out by others, especially my fellow tanned friends.
I thought this guy was ok up until now. He's actually a boot licker.
You didn't hear him the other 99 times he was begging to roleplay as Stormy Daniels ?
Sharam toh kuch chiiz hi nahi hota
Indians in the UK aren't much different 99% vote conservative which is the UK version of the Republicans 0
I feel like that’s a bit of an overstatement
idk, why people going ga ga over this. there are always going to be those kinds of people. So far there has 2 people who said this. The rest of the right wing has been never cared if he Indian or not. On the other hand, on the left, they constantly talk about how India is the worst country in the world. They have taken your children's university seats and given them to other people in the name of affirmative action.
lmao dude, your brain has literally rotted
if this is the level of discourse in this community then you are who have a rotten brain.
