Racist than thou ............

While surfing thru TOI online, came acroos this very unusual artile.

It says "We(Indians)'re even more racist than Aussies". Now I had the following comment for him.

"I agree with this post. But by saying so, I am not justifying the attacks. I think even the author is not trying to defend the Australians on this.

Everyone in India is racist. We don't even have to give out examples, it is that common.

The world is mixing and luckily it is not in India. Now we are going out to other people’s nation and rubbing it on their face. I cannot imagine if this was done in India. Imagine millions of Chinese people living in India. Then imagine a football match between India and china where the Chinese come in abundance and rub it on our face. I am sure we would have done a Jalianwala baug incident with them.

Whatever is happening in the world will happen for some more years it is a transition period for a phenomenon called literal globalization (literal cause when management firms came up with this concept they thought of mixing ideas and work styles).

After some years when people will accept this inevitable change everything will be normal. The boundaries/ borders of countries are fading. I shall wait for this phenomenon to hit India and china only then will we see the worst times.

Imagine an India where Mumbai is populated by Spanish/Chinese/Africans in a majority population. We are not even able to tolerate a majority population of a different state leave aside different country. Same goes for the Chinese as well. We are cry foul even though it is not our land it is in. Imagine if it was our land.........our country .......(sends shivers down your spine innit!!!!!!!)"
