I also note that some of the more westernized/ integrated east Indian immigrants are also openly critical about the off the boat ones who show lower levels of integration. Same goes for the Asian population. We're just a bunch of xenophobic, racist fucks.

India has always had their caste system, which is essentially a systematized cultural bigotry. They grow up with the idea that some Indians are better than others, just by virtue of their birth, and you can't expect that attitude to disappear just because they came to America.

Do brown skinned MAGA really think they are exempt? If so, see Exhibit 'A': JD Vances wife.
Oh you mean his soon to be ex wife???
Yes. Especially upper caste Indian Americans. But your average right winger from bumfuck doesn't know or care the difference between a Brahman or a Dalit. When it comes to east Asians it's basically this scene. They think of all west Asian, Arabic, and north African people as basically terrorists. The only group they might actually think of as different is very light skinned Cubans who don't speak Spanish.
Dumb cunt thought she'd get to sleep in the master's house if she danced just right. What's the right word for a race and class traitor?
Some Indian American conservatives seem shocked that segments of the political right are now taking aim at them.
"Are we not the right shade of brown?"
There is no right shade of brown to them.
They didn't think the leopards would eat their faces.
My only surprise is that it took this long. MAGA probably calculated that they could get the Indian vote in the election, so they kept their mouths closed.
Now they are turbocharging their cruelty, and burning the goodwill they have with multiple groups, and the only conclusion can be that they have already determined that they don't need those votes because there won't be any more elections.
Whaaat, MAGA being racist and hostile towards members of their own cesspool? Who woulda thought?
Patel should've seen this coming, or at least have the epiphany now. But he probably won't care, given that he's an asshole who's in it for his own benefit...
Platform run by a nazi is full of nazis, it's shocking.
They're shocked that the leopards are eating their faces?
Its so weird to me that 80% of the undocumented immigrants being deported are christian but these people say nothing. But when Kash Patel talks about Diwali that's the end of the world.
Its 100% about racism not christianity.
To be honest, as a South Asian, racists have always been openly bigotted in our direction. It was never really taboo in most Western countries. We have no StopAsianHate or BLM equivalent.
That being said I appreciate the author for highlighting the issue. Despite our faults (by virtue of being human) we value family and education as ideals and that has helped us create prosperity, especially in the US where Indians are the highest earning demographic. This rubs some the wrong way, even if it is fairly earned.
Though its not surprising, it is disappointing when it occurs in a nation that sees itself as a land of opportunity.
This rubs some the wrong way, even if it is fairly earned.
Sadly, it's less to do with your prosperity and a lot more to do with the fact that you're not white.
From the regressive perspective, if you're nonwhite and poor you're a leech on society and if you are well off you must have took it from them by gaming the system. The core is not seeing others as equally human.
Being financially secure is a multiplier to their bigotry as they feel it challenges 1) their collective power and 2) their worldview that anyone that shares their melanin level is innately superior in every way.
a nation that sees itself as a land of opportunity.
A nation whose propaganda claims it is a land of opportunity for all.
The reality is (and has always been) very different.
Honestly, it seems like racism against Indian people is disgustingly accepted even here in Canada. I know some otherwise very progressive people who will just straight up make very racist generalisations/commente without a second thought and for some reason it's just accepted
In no way excusing the behaviour, but there’s a massive exodus of people from India globally, and as a visible minority, it makes it easy to pick on them in particular.
Globally the money is accumulating towards wealthy individuals but it’s somehow easier to blame the new neighbour because he puts spices in his food.
They are damn good spices and put my American cooking to shame. Share your secrets to Vindaloo or GTFO.
Kashmiri chili powder. This is not to be confused with either "chili powder" or paprika, it's a COMPLETELY different spice.

Goan Pork Vindaloo
3 to 3.5 lb pork shoulder, cubed

1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/3 cup coconut vineagar
Blend water, ginger, garlic, and spices until the consistency of thick tomato sauce.
Pour over pork in large bowl.
Heat oil in dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering, then cook onion until translucent, 7 to 9 minutes.
Pour in the pork, spread into an even layer and cook until bubbling. +2 minutes.
Cover, put in 325° oven for 40 minutes.
Stir in coconut vineagar.
Cook another 40 to 50 minutes until fork tender.
Rest for 10 minutes and serve!
Where the heck can I find coconut vinegar
Check your local upscale/asian markets or mail order.

I'm lucky in that we have an entire store that sells nothing but oils and vineagars.
Welp, now I have plans to my next Sunday dinner.
Fuck yeah!

What did these people think white Christian nationalists were? What did they think a white Christian ethnostate was going to be?
Some Indian American conservatives seem shocked that segments of the political right are now taking aim at them.
But but but, we are different brown people,we are not those dirty Latinos,we are clean Indians!
No no no, not THOSE indians, those aren't even calle... Ok, never mind, we are the GOOD brown people, you have to like us!
Am I close? Fucking leopards again!

It was about when Trump got back into power that me and my pals had the conversation that any colour but white will be fair game. What we got completely wrong, was just how quickly and how openly this would run.
Some of these people are truly despicable and deserve all the hate they get and more …. But even they don’t deserve this.
Really, you couldn’t find anything better to object to Kesh Patel than wishing people a happy Diwali?
I don't like his speech cadence
So, people on Elon Musk's far right, racist social network are being racist. How is that news?
Why are you all pretending people on X are representative of society as a whole?
I love how tangled and fucked up the entire thing is.
Musk implements a system that allows just enough monetary incentive that people in India and other countries can actually make a living promoting right-wing talking points and propaganda with blue check accounts, so he raises an absolute army of non-americans posing as pro-conservative patriots, and now Indian people are coming under attack from.... you guessed it, American conservatives.
On one hand racism is bad, and no one should be discriminated or targetted because of their race
Kash Patel ... Nikki Haley ... Vivek Ramaswamy
But then again, Fuck em.
Don't be surprised your face gets eaten if you hang out with leopards.
After one X user said that the existence of Indians disgusted them, Dinesh D’Souza, the right-wing commentator who has peddled racism against Black Americans for decades, mused: “In a career spanning 40 years, I have never encountered this type of rhetoric. The Right never used to talk like this. So who on our side has legitimized this type of vile degradation?”
Shocked I am.
Indian Americans spent a weirdly long time with so many of them actually believing the model minority shit. There is no model minority. The people who hate Mexicans and Venezuelans hate you too if you're darker than a german or you speak a non English language.
The MAGAt Indian Americans can piss in the wind . They voted for this BS and I have zero sympathy for their problem with the Christo-Fascist nutters. In Japan, Toyota's CEO wore a fucking MAGA hat and t-shirt at a NASCAR event. SHAME!!! Fuck him and I will boycott Toyota.
