No, he must be a racist, since he's saying exactly what I said. After all, you are ascribing a motive to me, so why not him? You self-righteous whiner.
You are a racist. He is talking about his own race, so can't logically be. However, he is just being an elitist here. A lot of Indian people start thinking high of themselves once they arrive to the US. It's in our blood, since we were ruled by Europeans for 190 years. :)
The thing common between you two here is that both are drawing wrong and uneducated conclusions here. There is no causal relationship between being an Indian and being 'unkind' (Yes, I still know you didn't use a direct word, but you didn't reply to my next comment to you, so I assume you meant something very similar to that).
Really? You are accusing me of thinking I am superior based on genetics (which is essentially what racism is), because I made a cultural observation which you don't agree with?
I don't like the culture in the United States' Deep South, so I guess I'm a racist for that too. I don't like Saudi Arabian culture either, again I'm racist, right?
If you don't like me ascribing things that are personal to an entire culture, then have at it. But to infer that its based on race is absurd. One of my main mentors in my career is a man who came to this country from India. I have immense respect for him, and according to you he falls into the "elitist" category due to his withering criticism of Indian culture. I'm sure that because he was born to a Dalit family you would call him biased. I think he just gets it.
I love how when a person of Indian descent disagrees with you, you label him an "elitist."
No True Scotsman. Look it up.
By the way, the diplomat who got arrested here deserved it. She should have done what everyone else in America who can't afford a live-in servant does. Don't have a fucking live-in servant. Wash your own damn dishes like the rest of us do.
I in fact strongly defended the arrest of the diplomat and supported your last line in contrast to what a lot of my Indian friends said in what turned out to be a heavy argument. Of course, she shouldn't have had a live-in servant if she couldn't afford. But then again that doesn't mean a stupid generalization should be made where it doesn't belong. You went too far saying "since they have servants and all ... they are generally like ... don't want to share their things when they become rich". And you surprisingly believe it's an attribute specific to Indian culture. Indian culture might be having many problems, but this cannot be one of them. This argument of yours somehow reminded me of this girl's interview. Don't know why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj3iNxZ8Dww
