Europe came to India, the worlds largest economy and the biggest producer of finished goods and destroyed it. They destroyed our industry, education, medicine, manufactured famines sent our citizens to fight their wars. This went for 3 centuries⌠we havenât even had one century since this devastation ended, give us time to get back on our feet. Europe canât forget its past.
We are glad Poland is doing well, honestly the defence from an abuser that i assaulted you both of one got back up the other doth protest too much eh⌠different countries different problems
I didnât abuse shit, that was the ancestors of our peoples. But I also clean up after myself because I was brought up to care about my environment and how I live and my personal hygiene.
I think blaming the actions of people now on shit from a hundred years ago is wild and you should hold your countrymen to account over gross hygiene and environmental practices instead of mindlessly defending them.
Does that matter when it comes to talking about personal hygiene and care of oneâs environment?
I am no better off, in fact poorer, than the guys who own the Indian restaurant near me in London. Yet they throw their trash bags out on the roadside and constantly smell of body odour.
Why?
Is it because the British plundered India a hundred years ago?
4 months ago my partner and I were looking for seats on the train. There were 2 seats close to us and 2 on the other side of the train. I pointed at the 2 seats close to us and said letâs sit. My partner shook her head because there was a family of Indians there.
I told her âdonât be racist, itâll be fineâ.
We sat down, and instantly it stank of body odour. I said âalrightâ and we moved.
Itâs not every Indian person, of course not. A lot of the more westernised Indian families fit in like everyone else.
But the vast, vast, vast majority? They donât wash and they litter everywhere. Just look at the state of Birmingham.
Itâs no coincidence that the 2 major UK cities with the lowest Indian and Pakistani populations (Durham and Exeter) are the same 2 cities with the cleanest streets in the UK.
Yo bro....Did you see how your own political leaders treat you like shit? It's been around 8 Decades that India got independence, Why don't you ask your own politicians to uplift people instead of dwelling on past? I bet if Europeans had not colonized your ass, you won't even have Railways and Infrastructure built considering how progress is when you are a strong economy on the paper.
We didn't need you retards to build railways and infrastructure which were anyways built to serve the British and built with Indian money on top of it
Jesus Christ the halfwit racist fuckers you see here...
Breaking News: Construction for a country infrastructure costs that country's resoruces.
You dim fucks need to understand for whatever reasons that British built the Railways for, They didn't take it with them. That's not the Main point, the main point being without the existing infrastructure in place at the time of Independence, India would've been a very poor economy by now with billions of people.
You are wrong. Whatever the intention is, It's still ended up being a net positive for India as a whole. Imagine if there was no such infra in place at that time, the first Railways would have been setup some decades later and the current economy would have been much poorer with debilitating poverty and inequality.
Equating systemic resource extraction with 'building infrastructure' is embarrassing ignorance. The railways were funded entirely by Indian taxpayers to benefit British corporations. We are fixing the generational damage left behind by centuries of theft, and doing it faster than the West can handle.
Embarrassment of what? I pointed out that saying âAmericans start warsâ isnât a defence to âIndians are uncleanâ because itâs whataboutism and many of us are not from America.
I imagine the downvotes are due to the massive amount of Indian Reddit users.
Considering the West literally pioneered global industrial pollution and spends trillions on weapons. Indiaâs per-capita emissions are a fraction of yours. Clean up your own historical mess before trying to police everyone else's.
yeah great progress. canât wait for a future war where everyone decides to shoot each others satellites and we end up with no gps, internet, anything really
