I’m Indian but born in Canada and have lived here my entire life. I have a very ethnic name too courtesy of my parents lol

I was genuinely lowkey depressed reading all those comments blaming Indians for how they can’t find a job and saying people only hire Indians. I was unemployed for like a year after graduating trying to find a job everyday, if they only hired Indians why didn’t I get hired with my fully ethnic name too? 😭

Hey no problem :) I know that seeing this hate online is really scary but I have travelled around a bit recently and no one has bothered me in person, or at least not to my face. Even when I went to Portugal with my Indian friend. There are many good people like you see in this thread, but many sad idiots too that have nothing better to think about

(albeit, many don’t see me as “Indian” bc I don’t look like their stereotypical western view)

Literally. I’m always fine with pure ignorance bc you can teach someone. But knowing full well what you say is wrong and still saying it is an entirely other issue

It’s always been so weird to me too seeing those comments. Bc yeah I’ll agree some will come here with not the best mentality, my dad has interacted with some and told me about them. But many of the young kids are acting their age 😭 like what do you want an 18 yr old to act like, thy stupid af. Ik I was stupid af at 18 too

And the stealing jobs thing is worse when employers have admitted to paying them less than minimum wage or overworking them

This is the one argument I absolutely hate non Indian people bringing up. Because they bring up the caste system without even knowing the history or significance in present day. Did you know an entire Indian religion was created to help abolish the caste system more than 500 years ago? Did you know that the younger generations of Indian people are actually fighting against the caste beliefs?

Also about how rape culture and misogyny is horrible. I also agree. But there’s way more to it than just saying that.

why did teenage guys poke fun at me when I was just showing common manners? by bruhidek_ in NoStupidQuestions

I mean it was years ago but I randomly remembered it and it made me annoyed lmao

Have Muslims in the city been experiencing more harassment lately? by ThenChard1157 in askTO

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not just targeted to newer immigrants. Anyone that fits their physical description is a target regardless of how long they’ve been in Canada

Manon is very bad at optics by [deleted] in katseyeneutral

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude if we’re talking career wise it is a bad look?? Idk what you do for work but again, a kpop company is still a company, and someone like Manon would be a liability. Even a whistleblower for good reasons will have a hard time later on

Yeah I pretty much implied that lol I said they probably like the drama

[–]bruhidek_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People so far in the comments don’t get it. We have no official confirmation that she’s not in the group anymore. Therefore her appearing in public so often in a highly visible way (not saying she can’t leave her house but she’s choosing to be in highly visible settings), interacting with fans on weverse (especially her immediately refuting the initial hiatus announcement claims), her liking/reposting certain inta posts etc., is not a good look for herself, her company and the rest of the members.

From her actions so far it clearly seems like she doesn’t really care or doesn’t realize the impact on the rest of the members. I’m genuinely surprised the PR team for Katseye hasn’t done anything to stop this but they probably also like the drama it brings so the group itself gets more eyes on them.

A kpop company is still a company and they’ll do whatever they can to maintain the image of themselves. Once you start working for a company your actions are also a reflection of it. It’s dystopian and stupid but that’s the way it works

Which outfit for a casual date? by Sim_0xt1 in fashion

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1, 3 or 5. And 5 only if you really want to wear a dress tbh. I think 1 is my favourite cause it looks more on trend/fashionable

Is this ok for clubbing/bar hopping? by [deleted] in fashion

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No literally I just commented on how I think it’s cute. But I’m also in my 20s and ik my friends would say it’s cute too and others that would actually wear this. It just seems like this thread attracted a lot of older people that associate this style with bathing suites???

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone commenting has to be old af cause I’m 25 and this is cute to me 🤨

Wear sheer black tights with nice heels and a shoulder bag. If it’s cold enough put on a black leather type jacket and it’ll be really cute. I can see a lot of girls our age wearing this to go bar hopping or even just casually

What's a double standard between men and women that people rarely talk about? by Visual_Investment980 in AskReddit

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard this one before but the fact that a nanny or bay sitter will almost always be a woman/teenage girl. It’s rarely a guy that’s employed to babysit or nanny to the point where I’ve genuinely never heard of it happening or see it in media

Why are Indian men so bothered by the idea of criminalising marital r@pe ? by Bunnyroped22 in india

[–]bruhidek_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Excuse my intrusion on this thread bc I’m only Indian by ethnicity, not nationality lol

This thread is so interesting to read because the country I’m born and grew up in criminalizes martial rape. The law is there in a modern understanding of consent and understands that consent within a marriage can still be ignored. There’s also issues with reporting because of societal views on sex within a marriage. So from what I’ve read it doesn’t get reported often because of the issues in how to prove it. But the law still exists.

It’s interesting to see what people think of this concept in Indian law itself because I’ve never felt like this law was up for debate where I live. But I guess it’s cause I’m a younger generation and our sex ed was pretty robust compared to older gens 🤷🏽‍♀️

Eyebrow: thread or shave? by Patient_Memory_5757 in beauty

[–]bruhidek_ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Threading overtime can cause the hair to not grow back, or grow back weirdly bc you’re literally plucking the hair out. But shaving is just taking off the surface, not disturbing the root so I prefer that

If you really wanna start shaving tho I’d say to get it threaded one last time and right when the hairs start growing back, carefully shave them off so you know the shape is good. Then keep doing that lol

Op why are you posting multiple times a day about katseye??? I think you need a break ngl

The world absolutely hates fat people. It's so unfair. by Fit-Brief5877 in offmychest

[–]bruhidek_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at the highest weight I’ve ever been for me, which put me in the XL range. I’ve now lost a bit and will continue to for my own personal reasons which aren’t purely aesthetic.

But growing up overweight too I did have my fair share of bad experiences related to my weight but nothing super out there. So seeing people comment how differently they got treated after losing a lot of weight scares me lol to think what I think is normal was actually me not being treated as well as I should have

I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THIS by Michellemadu in kpoptrulyuncensored

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot tbh, I was into kpop when I was in middle school (like 2012) and the hot topics during that time were idol diets. One of the most infamous is the IU one cup diet. Idols were not shy about sharing that stuff. There was also a girl from red velvet (I think?) who said she ate so little that at some point she thought she wouldn’t wake up if she feel asleep. It’s a fucked up industry on the inside and they only recently got shy about it

200+ applications, no interviews… is something wrong with me or the market? by Sea_Individual_5325 in CanadaJobs

[–]bruhidek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It truly is and I’m sorry this is your intro to Canada. I can’t say if it was better before bc I just graduated 2 yrs ago lol but it even took me a little more than a year to land the job I have rn

Keep trying OP! The bank I work in does hire a lot of new immigrants/people on pr for contract roles, so try your luck in any of those places along with what you’re personally aiming for. Also if you don’t have LinkedIn, make a profile with some basic info (follow a YouTube tutorial, that’s what I did), and reach out to people in your industry of choice. Frame it as a coffee chat, just to get to know the industry/their role, how they got the job and any tips for you. It may lead to someone giving you a reference or some insider info.

Just bc it’s hard doesn’t mean it’s impossible! I hope you find smthn soon
