“doing work” is when you have less melanin in your epidermis

also the CIA guy is mayo and the Chinese students are confused as to why he’s squinting really hard for some strange reason

why not?

cruises are definitely less safe for life on earth

Did you do the math? I feel like they’re not, assuming the cruise is for necessary travel rather than just leisure

Pretty much everything we use gets shipped, so ships are definitely more efficient than planes, so they’d probably be better for pollution/climate change

EAIAC

Yup. That Kerala can be this good while being imperialized through taxes makes it twice as impressive (same goes for South India as a whole, and a few other states too)

Every politician in Bihar (and also many more) must be destroyed

nah they’re good. Sometimes I want something very light that doesn’t make my pockets sag

the landlord has round eyes

honestly why is nearly everybody like this? Why can’t 99.9% of people see the very obvious 2nd order connections between extremely simple social concepts? It’s like living on a planet of literal sheeple

Many will disagree, but this is the simplest distillation for the westoid mind

What are the Indian version of the “Serbs” called?

Basically North India (minus Maharashtra). You could call them “Hindustanis” but that term would exclude Punjab which if anything was the source of everything North Indian thousands of years ago

honkeystan is a place. I don’t really care to know what weirdass polities lie within it.

South Indian states are similar to Southeast Asia

North Indian states are similar to the worst parts of Africa, but without the privilege of just having more land

The latter is more capitalistic and conservative

Kamala is part Brahmin, sorry to disappoint (makes a lot of sense tho if you think about it)

Okay but Bengalis and Punjabis and Burmese and Cambodians and Laotians and ESPECIALLY Biharis/Hindustanis are also allowed to work abroad??? And these places are worse off than Kerala

So obviously something’s being done right

for the mayos reading:

imagine if Europe was a country, and 95% of its politicians were Serbian. Now also imagine that in this alternate reality’s history, Serbia had invaded and Serbianized all of northeast europe. Now imagine that under this new European nation, they force everyone from Crete to Ireland to learn Serbian in schools (in addition to their native language and obviously necessary english)

that’s what India is

not if North India has anything to say about it

and I believe the crux of the situation is more THIS than covid brain damage

yeah but it’s way easier to “make 'em excited” when there are fewer other distractions around, also when the fundamental medium of the information (print and text) is something they’re familiar with

But at least I have some treats I guess.

the treats are 3x smaller, cost 3x more, and 4x shittier quality
