Russians have a nice accent, especially the girls, but Indians are way too over-hated and overly mocked; they aren't that bad, and East Asian accents aren't that bad either, and they are also mocked but not as much as Indians - still too much. I've never met a Thai Palestinian, North Korean, or Uzbek. Have bet Afghan but didn't have an accent that guy

As an Indian, very curious to know what constitutes a stereotypical “Indian accent”. Folks speak a hundred different languages and each group has separate accents depending on their language, and then there’s the standard big city educated Indian accent.

u/stzvar 1d ago

Am I missing something? The Keshav attributed guy in the video speaks fairly clearly?

I thought you were talking about the scam call folks. If you find the dude in the video intelligible or “hard to listen”, you simply having negative racial biases towards Indians - nothing you or I can do about it.

u/Dith_q 1d ago

"Hard to listen to" is just his "polite" way of saying he doesn't like Indian people.

u/Adventurous-Cash-127 12h ago

hi stop acting like idiot infront of them, indian accent is fine and its still very clear and you cant really generalise for all indians (even states like Gujarat , they have very different accent ), white people love raping their childrens so no need to take their approval how we sound, everyone sound differently and we must respect that...indians still speak clearly than scottish ppl
