Right-wing media’s racist attacks and ethnic slurs directed at Indians, other South Asians, and South Asian Americans have surged over the past year, in part fueled by conservative infighting over the H-1B visa program and a handful of viral posts.Commentators in the conservative media ecosystem have used anti-Indian slurs and characterized the presence of Indian immigrants as “harmful to America.” Some of these figures allege that the U.S. is being “invaded by Indians” who “have abused the H-1B visa system in order to change America forever.” Additionally, commentators said that H-1B visas “shouldn’t even exist” and claimed that “we need a Northern wall” to prevent Indian migrants coming to the United States from Canada.

    Okay. What would you like to be educated about? I can type out a thousand page essay. Will that be enough to change your opinion about literally anything?

    More importantly, there is existing literature on why racists suck balls. Why haven’t you sought that out and changed your opinion already if you’re truly willing to be educated and change your opinions?

      For the record, I think your assumption is nonsense. Facts are not racist. I made no statement in my OP that was racist.

      See above, champ.

      As I’ve already said, you couldn’t be more wrong.

        Stating a bunch of random “facts” about a group of people and using that as a justification to hate on them? Yeah, that’s not racism. We should give this phenomena a name. Sounds brand new.

          My dude. You already said you know nothing about India. Perhaps go read about it and learn something rather than arguing about things you know nothing about. I’m sure you know of some still reputable information sources.

          Edit: They are an Indian immigrant to Canada. What a twat.

            I don’t know about India. I know about racism. Once again, you’re a racist piece of shit. Wait for a few days, your rusky bot friends will come online and you can tell them all about me.
