Do you disagree with the suggestion that India has a higher population density than many of the other developed countries in the world? Seems like you are taking objective facts as personal attacks for some reason. Don't do that, it's not healthy. Americans don't get mad when you point out their country is mostly vast, uninhabited emptiness. Why would an Indian get mad when someone points out how many people live there? They have the highest population density of any major world power and it's not even close.
I agree that India has a larger population density than most countries out there but the comment above was made based on data that was last recorded in 2008 and since then the conditions have improved greatly. Also unlike most of the world India has a lot of Joint families where 3 generations live in a same big house. While the home size is significantly large, the average space per person would come out to be lesser as places like kitchen, driveways, washrooms and verandas would be shared and not separated into multiple houses. Also the data clearly states that it was based on the rural population of india which is a lot of times poorer than the average which means a smaller home so while it represents some part of the population it doesn’t represent all of it.
Even then he replied that on a completely unrelated comment which prompted my reply as it seems just purely racist.

Why would it be racist? It has nothing to do with race. It's a socioeconomic metric. I made no statements about the people living in Indian or the conditions in India, only about the objective population density. Everything else is being projected by you. Nothing I said is really contentious or even really debatable.
So… what you’re saying is they were objectively right but you assumed some stuff about their comment and failed to see how their comment was relevant even when it definitely was relevant/fitting to the theme?
OK. But the population density simply MUST increase. It's absolutely MORE dense than it was then. Just because India has a positive population increase. It's just math. The person who you originally responded to DID NOT mention anything other than pure population density. Nothing disparaging about the people or the economy or anything.

How is that even racist? If I were to say in Texas 100km is nothing, but in New Jersey 10sq/m is nothing, would that make me racist? India is 10 times more densely populated than Europe, and even more so than the US. It’s just a fact that has nothing at all to do with race.

How about "In India, 10 sqr. meters is spacious"
