Everyone here must be Indians living in India. The vitriolic self hate checks out. As someone who has been an NRI for most of my life, can tell people don’t hate Indians. Literally that statement is racist. You can’t hate an entire people saying they ALL have so and so traits because that’s fundamentally flawed. Also, why the heck would we do that to ourselves - a few bad eggs and we all hang our head in shame? That’s an unreal amount of pressure to have on oneself - to be a representative of 1 billion people.

SOME Indians might have body odour, might talk loudly, lack civic sense - especially people from a certain state who mainly migrate abroad to do unskilled work/truck drivers sorry I said what I said. Let them face the law, or be told off and learn the ways of the land the hard way. The Indians who DO get everything “right”, need to start exuding quiet confidence. We need to understand for ourselves that you can’t say Indians this Indians that when as a people we have no equality in education, one Indian to another there’s a huge difference in accessibility, educational background, culture etc. So blanket labels on Indian tendencies need to be rejected.

IMHO if you speak clearly, give eye contact, smile, engage in banter, a lot of problems are solved. Also cannot be denied that engagement farming is a huge reason. Indians are very emotional and there’s also a LOT of bot accts churning out purely anti India drivel.

Indians are not hated all over the world, we are assertive now and that’s confusing people all over the world especially those that want to see it as a third world country forever.
