As if Sundar gives a fuck.
Also I don't know if this counts as internalized racism but I think Indian CEOs are mostly yes men trying to implement as much rent seeking as possible. Adobe, Microsoft, Google. 3 major tech companies which have been heavily pushing subscriptions but haven't released any innovative product.
Being a bit closer to the C-Level of a larger company, I can assert that greed, lack of vision and jumping on bandwagons is not exclusive to one nationality.
Yes but I feel like my countrymen are much more prone to people-pleasing (or in this case board-pleasing) because of our culture. We're just expected to bow to authority.
Even if you're the authority yourself? Also: that sounds like a great place for con-men 🤔
CEOs like this let the board control them instead of convincing board members of their plans.
And yeah, great place for con-men, especially of the religious variety.
Down-voting this without commenting is anti intellectual
The anus has spoken.
In general, no, it isn't. It's for comments that aren't worthy of a response. In your case, it's because of the racism.
"that's racist" doesn't exactly take much effort
If you're judging comments based mainly on how long they are, you should be grading high school essays about Jane Eyre, not trying to participate in an adult conversation.
You missed the point. I'm saying that some comment is better than none to explain your position or rationality
