I think you are seriously misinformed about India. #1 No, we dont have Ku Klux Klan or its equivalent #2 The concept of BROWN pride is a non-starter, since most Indians like white or olive skin color due to colonialist biases #3 The right wing in India is about religion, not about skin color or race.

Discrimination in India is wrt religion and caste. But it is confined to Indians themselves, not against foreigners. No body in India is that stupid to beat up people because of their hair/eye/skin/arse colors like in Germany.

And whats this about me attacking all “WHITE” people and what not ? I cant attack all “WHITE” people, half my family is White and “non” nerdy, including my wife.

I know for sure that there is a group of people on the other side of the political spectrum, who love to present the EVIL RACIST WHITEY bogeyman to intimidate minority voters into voting for them.

But this issue is different. And Indians are NOT race baiters, as you know.

This issue is about genuine discrimination that needs to be urgently addressed by that country and their society.

BTW, I did half-expect someone to take cudgels on behalf of the entire “western” civilization and make a few well known remarks about “caste”, “cow-worship”, “all Indians being hindus” and such asinine remarks as usual. Thats why the sarcasm in the beginning itself.

But cmon be reasonable. Dont you think the only thing common in western civilization is McDonalds and Ikea ? since each country has its own culture and priorities. You must be knowing it better than me, you been there.

I’m not sure I get your point other than discrimination in India is ok since it is not against foreigners by your count and it’s wrong in Germany because it is(?)

you did your own thread here linking a lefty European mag about white supremacist neo-nazis assaulting non-Germans in Germany to use as a segue to criticize racists (in your opinion) on Free Republic.

and to me...that stinks of PC obsession with race and race baiting

in my view there are probably no unzotted white supremacists currently on board here and 99% of the active racism going on in the US is not by whites but rather against them

and you...a probably well educated well off or soon to be well off Indian who is btw....part of trans Caucasia has a hard on for white racism.....this ain't 1954....white supremacy is dead.........racism is now anti-white more than anything

I can only imagine someone has pissed you off about being Indian....I don’t frankly care...there is no organized hatred of Indians here except maybe some ghetto resentment if you guys on stores there...like Koreans or Laotians etc...and that ain't organized....just riot time racism

what I care about is conservatives for God’s sake to stop playing the charade about racism.........it’s a damn joke..a tool to silence folks about painful truths

and it’s very hypocritical for you to go on about here...given the very intolerance you left back there

and like I said....folks are biased against what they think a culture brings....not that folks are black or brown....

but this does bring up a point........the dominant group here is being marginalized in record time by other groups...most of whom are here illegally....and many...including me are tired of it

now...I guarantee you that the dominant groups in India would behave no different under the same invasion...so quickly

and at the same time where the dominant group is under constant assault for being “mean” about multiculturalism

it gets old...

and yes you can be a White basher regardless whom you married.....some of our biggest PC race baiters are guilty lost their spine whites..

it really boggles my sensibilities how you can so critical of the culture here

and that line about colonial bias....that is revisionist...good lord.....do you really think Indians can only determine pleasant physical features because of what some pink Englishman told them?

that is ridiculous...

you can have the last word......there is no point to this.....were you educated here?

if so...all I can say is damn son.....it's really sad you have this world view. you left behind a third world life....you're here married to an American I gather and living the good life and yet your view is about all that PC crap that haunts you for whatever reason about what's wrong with us.....immigrants in the past did not have such indulgences..and showed more gratitude and humility
