      NRIs and non-Indian desis are casteist pieces of dog shit. They’re not the victims - most of them are from an upper caste background - Sharmas, Vermas, Guptas, Gujjars, you name it. They exploited our lands, left their “beloved” country with a crumbling infrastructure and shove the burden of “preserving kulcha” and play victim card for “discrimination”. What’s frustrating is that they will use imagery of poverty and disease to victimize themselves as self-made, and they also enjoy this “validation” from ignorant white liberals and leftists. I find it laughable when they try to play themselves like the “next Jews” and compare reservation and affirmative action as akin to Holocaust.

        You know, it is funny r/india is filled with the ignorant liberals you describe, who believe just being the opposite of Hindutvavaadis is a hallmark of being “good”. They simp for white world capitalism and “going abroad”.

        NRIs are some of the biggest pieces of shit I have seen on internet, that sugarcoat their words to fool people. Typical baniya/brahmin behaviour.

      Asian Americans hated on black americans in order to hop on the white supremacy bandwagon. They were one of the good ones! It has blown up in their faces multiple times, including this instance, yet they continue down the path. Fuck 'em.

      Advice to all POC: The white establishment and power structures will never see you as equal. Playing their game ends in your loss, always.

    Esther’s academics weren’t “stellar,” Kim said — only a 4.3 GPA, 1520 SAT and nine AP courses. But in her personal statement, she wrote about her mother’s fight with breast cancer. And she was admitted to the University of Pennsylvania.

    “That was her trump card. It was a unique situation that she overcame,” Kim said. “To be frank, she got really lucky.”

    Fuck sake
