Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

How is this like the third outright racist comment I've seen on Lemmy this morning? Fuck off.
BTW my neighbours gay and punjabi her dad accepts her because he came earlier and assimilated, same wave as my parents, they have a different mentality now
Maybe you need to talk to more people before telling others they are out of touch, your hand picked anecdotes from the few Indians you met aren't representative of a billion different individuals. Yes there's a lot of idiot conservative type these days, that's becausea conservative right wing goverment came into power a few years back and this is the result of their propaganda , the same that has happened in the US recently and they share similar view points to American conservatives, non of what you are talking about is exclusive to Indians, growing up an abcd has obviously done a number on your mental health, so I hope you seek some treatment for that, but your parents generation was no different from the current gen, the political and social landscape was just different back then.
Cool anecdote
Im literally in 2 group chats for us jobs im unqualified for but im prioritized because im indian, if you think ppl are capping they are not, personally I hate my recruiter, man spends 6 months out of the year in india praising india implying my dad has stds because hes a truck driver, thats the typical kind of person I deal with when dealing with ppl straight out of india, they have a massive superiority complex
They want you to only associate with indians, drop all white friends and relationships and talk shit on american culture constantly, this isnt just them, this is common, if you dont speak hindi or punjabi you wont notice
Nobody wants this. Just stop.
And you think they respect gay ppl at all? Trans ppl at all? Theyll be nice openly as is polite but they are the biggest haters of anything like that, defending fobs who literally hate you if you're on blahaj is wild
I dont respect a whites opinion on racism either way, half of yall sound like you live in the midwest, no diversity in your upbringing just parroting shit you read online, how about you talk to some indian immigrants or children of immigrants for once
Yall think you speak for us all, you speak for no one
Yeah my indian ass sharing my lived experiences is the most racist person on this site I bet
