The kind of cope certain people come up with to justify the faults (and lack of basic living standards) of a civilization are insane.

India is not a "karma" society, India is a 'jugaad' society where everyone does just enough to get by. The lack of civilizational will power to fix things which slightly harm the entrenched elite is very well known. (case in point - the recent stray dogs issue where the life of common man was put in danger because some rich animal welfare aunties protested against it).

Thankfully Indian gen Z at least accepts these problems. Look at the memes on the gen Z spaces. Internet has let them know that living standards can be much better and other countries have risen from similar poverty levels. So there's some hope.

You can't keep doing this 'india is not for beginners' forever.

Well said. I'm too offended by justification of it not to scold the author of the original comment, but the aggressive assumptions in the replies made it worthwhile. I share your guarded hope. I'm fairly sure India will put people like this in their place eventually.

"jugaad" is very close to what I stated - not worrying too much about privacy, as it doesn't have immediate material implications. "Karma" philosophy helps it by believing in destiny, instead of blaming one's own lackings and worrying.
