A raft of evidence shows that caste discrimination has been imported from India to the United States.
Indians and Indian Americans are often held up as a “model minority” in the United States. Members of this community are more likely to be highly educated and to have health insurance, make more money, work in more senior positions, and have lower rates of poverty than both the average immigrant and the average American. They are well represented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics—the so-called STEM subjects—and more and more of them occupy roles of political and social influence, including Vice President Kamala Harris. This group, so the narrative goes, exhibits the promise of the American dream.
But two lawsuits in the past year, as well as two surveys, have offered a clearer picture of this particular minority group, warts and all, finding evidence that many members of the community have imported the specifically Hindu Indian notion of casteism to America. The vocabulary may be unfamiliar to most Americans—Dalits, Brahmans, Adivasis, for example—but underlying it is a familiar, and corrosive, subject: discrimination

When America was still America everyone had the right to discriminate, ie like who they chose to like and dislike who they chose to dislike.
Brahmins arent all an economic elite.
And the economic elite there is mostly not Brahmin.
There are lots of poor Brahmins. By our standards even the elites of an Indian village would seem to be living in absolute misery.
India is a very complex place.
Just a taste -
Go look up the richest people in India. They aren’t Brahmins, they are mostly Vaishyas, the third step in the caste order, or the farmers and merchants.
The wealthiest, Mukesh Ambani, is a Vaishya.
The second, Gautam Adani, isnt a Hindu, but a Jain
The third, Lakshmi Mittal, is a Marwari, not quite a Hindu, of the Agarwal caste, whuch is analogous (but not the same) as the Hindu Vaishya. Btw, he’s on the board if Goldman Sachs.
et.
Tata is a huge business conglomerate in India, with huge foreign holdings as well. At one time they were the biggest company in India. They also happen to own the biggest employment agency supplying H1b workers. The Tata family, which own most of Tata group, arent Brahmins. They arent even Hindus. They are Parsis.
etc.
I suggest a trip to India!
“According to Gautier, today’s Brahmins can be easily found cleaning public toilets, a menial job that the government projects as if it is being done only by Dalits since ages.”
Interesting article.
India is complex.
“I guess you’ve never worked in an IT department where you’re the one American out of 20 with the rest of the 19 being Indians.”
As long as I’m generously compensated for it, why should I care?
No sale.
They've taken over Microsoft, Google, IBM, Micron, etc. and they've done it by acting like a mafia. They are a kiss up piss down kind of people.
They call people who like to be colonized cucks.
Colonized? You sound like the blacks and other minorities when they say they “feel unsafe in white spaces”.
The goal by the elites is to de-Christianize America by flooding us with 3rd world peoples to rob us of our wages and to steal our grandchidrens’ birthright.
Artificially inflating the labor supply by importing millions of 3rd worlders to drive down wages is stealing wages from american workers.
1 Timothy 5:18
New International Version
18 For Scripture says, “Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain,”[a] and “The worker deserves his wages.”[b]
Now try to tell me how great Biden was for ripping open the southern border to Mexico and the massive illegal immigrant invasion. You're just another crypto leftist larping as a patriot. Disgusting.
You’re so “open minded” that your brain fell out. I really kicked the hornets nest of establishment RINOs and leftists when I brought up the fact that Indians are racist colonizers.
Redneck, try to distinguish between the author of an article and its poster.
No.
That’s where you’re wrong. I’m not for illegal immigration. Just because I don’t share your obsession with race doesn’t mean I don’t believe in borders and following the law. Throughout my life, leftists have always been the ones who are tribal and obsessed with race.
Mike Lee wants 500 million Indian non-Christian savages brought to America ASAP to replace you so his corporate buddies can save some money.
Redneck, pay attention to the posting guidelines here at the esteemed Free Republic, particularly this one:
“Please: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts.”
It sounds like Indians may be trending R for the Atlantic to get so nasty.
If they were trending Trump, then the left will soon declare them “white-adjacent” and no longer entitled to holy oppressed status.
India has 28 official languages, and most of these have their own script! Beyond these there are 300 other languages.
And these are languages not dialects: Marathi and gujarati are not mutually intelligible though both are neighbouring states. And both have written histories and literature dating back over 1000 years.
What is more amazing is that India has languages belonging to 5 Language FAMILIES :
1. Indo European
2. Dravidian
3. Tibeto-Burman
4. Mon-Khmer
5. Sentinel-Jarawa
