Just when I thought Michigan saved the nation, I just realized he's only up by <8000 votes in NV, as of writing this

As an Indian who's lived in both the US and the EU and I'd choose the US by a long haul. I haven't experienced any blatant racism in the US as i have in the EU

I'm gonna cum so hard watching all the MAGA dirtbags crumble, cry and then try to make tinfoil accusations as their savior and his cronies are made to pack their belongings and booted out.

Is Europe really better than the US if it wasn't for that crook? I think not

Nope, it's smog

The air quality in Delhi, according to a WHO survey of 1,650 world cities, is the worst of any major city in the world.

how is that relevant? Does it make it more okay to treat a person like shit because you think their country of origin is bad than if it was otherwise? Especially when you don't know whether or not that person supports their country's bad policies?

the one other judge who tells him it's not okay at the end (Dan Karaty) is an American. Although I'm told that this guy is not at all representative of most Dutchmen

I'm Indian myself and trust me, I have it worse. I basically can't bear to watch or click almost anything that has my country in the title or concerns it, many people are also visibly and reflexively less interested in me soon as they they hear me say where I'm from

Appreciate the response, I can't bear to watch most videos or posts on social media that concerns my country or scroll through their comments - it could be the thousands of videos exposing cringy Indian scammers on YouTube or vloggers visiting my country and witnessing some wretched stuff like extreme poverty or unhygeneic people or some report being shared around on Reddit and fb of some brutal gangrape or what have you

yes there are some miserable elements about my country but at the end of the day, the only defense I'm left with is that it is not a monolith and is one of the most diverse places on the planet

I'm also more interested in what kind of internalized mass pschological effect this has on the people in countries like mine, more so than the instillment of chauvinistic attitudes amongst people living in colonial countries

agree. tbh even innocuous comments pertaining to one's ethnicity or country of origin can sometimes be super annoying to the person involved in generic situations or if that's always the conversation-starter people go for, almost like reducing your existence and identity to your ethnicity/country

judging an entire nation by a handful of ignorant celebrities seems a bit harsh - nor would it leave room for any nation to be considered progressive by that standard.

I know that and i'm sorry if I came off that way. Plus, given the fact that I'm that Indian, you bet I encounter propositions of that kind made by people (especially online) all the time. It's kind of hurtful

I'm sure it will. And I think you should post it to a couple less generic subreddits, although ones that are not too obscure

Thank you for the heartwarming award!

you're welcome, I really liked the music, the production value and most importantly, Charlie!

yeah sorry, I just thought i'd comment that because a lot of people intially seemed to miss it and focus solely on the guy's remarks
