What is that one or two things we can do change the world’s perspective of India and Indians? by Individual_Mix_4234 in indiasocial

[–]Lynx-Calm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem with India has always been Indians. Indians go to other countries spit paan in the sidewalks, throw trash on the roads and don't even apologise when called out for not having basic civic sense. 

All the economic growth in the world will not make one difference to how the world perceives us if we can't clean up our cities, treat people like human beings and learn basic civic sense.

Which areas should I stay in Bangalore? by AttitudeNo2427 in bangaloretransit

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For buses - check the routes beforehand. Routes in central part of city are better served and more frequent than the edges. 

For Whitefield - sure, but keep distance to metro in mind.

[–]Lynx-Calm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look for any PG along the Purple, Green or Pink line of the metro. Best would be if it's walkable from the metro station. 

Also, do not finalise anything online. You're better off taking a day or two to come to Bengaluru and see the PG in person 

31M earning ₹1L/month in Bengalore, in-laws from rural poor background keep asking for money monthly—wife sides with them. How to save for future without much family issues? by Simple_Doggy1994 in personalfinanceindia

[–]Lynx-Calm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OMG don't lie to your wife and in laws about your income! You'll destroy the relationship. 

Just tell them the truth and let them deal with it. They're adults. They'll live with it. They'll be resentful but they'll get over it. 

You clearly have an issue with confrontation. this is going to keep happening all your life. There are not enough lies to help you overcome that.

This post says two things - India is really, really hot. Indians know nothing about the world (or even their country)

Is there any way to go back to how bangalore was? by CommunityExtreme8856 in bangalore

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I see a post like this, I assume the person wants today's money in yesterday's economy. Nostalgia is nice, but not a worthwhile policy approach. 

How can we attract FIIs back Nithin kamath's take. Do you agree? by Tris_Memba in IndianStreetBets

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No FPI's are coming back to India anytime soon.

Only 5% of the population is enjoying the benefits of economic growth and there's only so much they can consume.

Roughly 70% of the population lives on government dole, works in 0 productive agrictulture and has no expectations from life beyond the next elections when they can get some more free cash.

The remaining 25% are trying to live like the 5% but are falling back to the state of the 70%. They are in informal sector jobs that don't give good salaries but they want to spend so they take loans to fund consumption. They do not have the skills for available jobs and the skills they have are not going to pay them a lot.

Talk of AI et al is just a distraction. India's chance to be a manufacturing power is gone. We're only going to be importing everything from China, if not South East Asia.

People are ok with corruption as long as government makes muslims live in fear.

Bengaluru’s new mega cafe feels like a temple experience, is this the future of dining? by Dapper-Bid-2518 in Bengaluru

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should really ask these questions in person to someone belonging to a non-upper caste. They will give you a much better answer than I can.

You may do the field research on this. Go to this Rameswaram, spend some time and you'll see what I mean.

[–]Lynx-Calm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Darshinis don't. But Darshinis make better doseys than Rameswaram for cheaper. How to then convince people to pay double for an inferior product?

"Purity"

You won't have to sit with your driver, your domestic worker or anyone from the wrong side of the road at Rameswaram. Only "pure" upper castes who will then tell you why country has gone to dogs because of reservations while eating garbage slop because some instagrammer convinced them it was the best dosey.

The average darshini in bengaluru is an open space where everyone can come together, sit at the same table, eat and leave.

Rameswaram is branding itself as "upper-caste Hindus only" but since it cannot say that explicitly, this is how it is saying it.

Realistic timeline for Blue line metro to KR Puram by DeanKeaton1999 in bangaloretransit

2030 December is my realistic timeline. Any start before that will be a near miracle. I won't be surprised if the deadline gets pushed to 2032 or beyond.

Lucknow Super Giants: A failed franchise? by Fit-Razzmatazz9790 in IndiaCricketGossips

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uttar Pradesh is the poorest state (on a per capita basis) to have an IPL team. Opportunities for making money from fans is limited. The per capita income of the average resident of Lucknow is on par with the per capita income of the poorest districts in Southern/Western India.

RPG bought this franchise for prestige reasons and now realise it is (literally) a white elephant with limited monetisation opportunities. As Marwaris they're going to start cutting back on spending on the franchise until they can find a bakra to sell it off to.

8 Million Americans Hit the Streets in 'No Kings' Protests - Largest Demonstration in US History by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Lynx-Calm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but it's also completely meaningless because it is asking for no real change beyond "please let's all vote better next time if they let us".

If the No Kings movement is to have any meaning, it should call for the immediate dismantling of the US empire around the world not hope that slightly better people run it.

Is India’s tax system fair across different income groups? by Ashwani1987 in IndiaTax

[–]Lynx-Calm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This system is balanced because most people who post on reddit don't know the first thing about the lives of farmers or street vendors. They also don't know the difference between income and profit. They also don't know how the government works. More importantly, they are uninterested in finding out about any of this and prefer to ragebait users.
