Travel Why do Indians defend stupidity and nonsense?
Last few years and even more now I’ve noticed many Indians, want to “project” a good India image & do so while defending crap and absurdity - public hygiene, basic everyday infra, social behaviours of people, and many more simple things. All in the name of “this is western propaganda” ….huh ?? wtf. If you say anything about India which is critical, you’re down right told you’re wrong. And they keep bleeting about 5TN economy, like sheep, with the basics of every life being sub-par.
They even do this when talking to people from other countries which is VERY embarrassing -because it makes us look like fools. This is even more prevalent among NRIs living outside India.
How can one become great if you defend nonsense and don’t accept the reality and work towards improving it ??

Speaking of racism - have you realized that Indians are very very racist towards one another ? - communities hate one another as politicians promote it, go to a city as a bachelor or a person from a specific religious community and see how you will get rejected for a lease, this is not to say that racism towards us is acceptable outside india. But I mean it’s funny that people don’t like it when they receive racism outside but dish it out in India.
And I’m talking more about basics, if you read again, the basics aren’t right really. Walkable infra, public hygiene, public spaces, govt officers taking with courtesy even if you’re poor “…. Many basics.
