I think a big reason left wing pieces and memes are so fucking long is because every other fucking paragraph is an explanation or a cowtow to the left wing hive minds opinion on the topic “oh obviously I’m not saying all of them are like that”

“I’m not agreeing with them I just understand it”

“I don’t mean X(bad) obviously Y(good) is still true! Don’t hate me!”

You have to include these wastes of time to prevent the middling iq leftoid horde from turning on you for daring to produce a thought that could be misconstrued against the consensus because they abandoned the concept of context in order to weaponize right wing discussion against right wingers decades ago.

I know, unrelated to the article. It’s just I’m half way through reading and can’t help but feel this thing could be trimmed down significantly without losing any meaning. These things go without saying, or at least they should and anybody who doesn’t get it without a detailed explanation is a lost cause who’s mental energy is best spent on sweeping a floor and not pretending to be an intellectual

Some of these things might matter, but I'm skeptical of other ideas here. Chuds who hate Indians don't know too much about arranged marriages or think about that. If you wanted to come up with reasons that Chinese culture is disgusting to Westerners, you could. For example, they're really bad on cruelty to animals. They also seem to have a tendency towards cult and herd-like behavior. I don't know if it's clear Indians are more grubby materialists than Chinese, who have just completely given in to an authoritarian government and focus on making money at this point in history in particular. With Indians, the lack of riz and physical features make people go out of their way to emphasize whatever negative traits they can find.

You’re completely wrong about that. One reason Indians are hated more than Hispanics or East/Southeast Asians now, and about on par with Muslims, is that they don’t have, let’s just say, available women. And lots of their men hitting on our women.

Come to think of it, that may also be a reason behind Japan or Korea being fenced-off hermit kingdoms for centuries.

A lot of Indian women don't get hit on by non-Indian men. You just have to go for it and you'll find success. They're very available.

My main gripe with the Chinese is cruelty to animals, to me it just demonstrates a lack of something, hard to explain, I mean come on it's 2025, you have a dog but you just beat the shit out it all the time but it's like a cute status symbol you make videos of on social media that show you beating it? I just find their mindset or lack of so alien and off putting. but maybe it's tied into this herd like behavior, I mean these animal cruelty videos get thousands of likes....and supposedly they are thinking in hundreds or thousands of years which also makes no sense in this context, if you look at their fishing fleets scraping the ocean floor...they obviously have not thought about the future. Whatever Indians do it can't be worse, sorry.

The literal premise of your original article is that social observations about Indian group characteristics aren’t valid without data.

What gives?

This one is based on data and the entire organization of their societies.

That’s not any more (or less) “data” derived than the observation that Indians are clannish and tribe-loyal.

You defend Indians yet your conclusion contains no strategy of how they can reliably acquire white women as sexual partners. All you really tell them is to support your cause (the liberal order).

Interesting, most Indians (myself included) want to be rich and maintain their blood line (which we succeed in) - if we don’t support miscegenation wouldn’t that be better for white conservatives? Also I do think Indians need to 100% focus on fitness , not enough emphasis on protein or sport

Yes Indians opposing miscegenation would be best for both Indian and other populations. Preserving heritage is important.

LOL, there's enormous pressure to marry within your own religion/ethnicity/caste/even subcaste. If you negotiate it down to, "I'm marrying this other type of Tamil Brahmin" or "We're Sikh, but I'm marrying this nice Punjabi Brahmin girl", or "We're Brahmin, but I've found this nice Hindi speaking Rajput who are also upper castes", that's potentially something the parents/extended family may go along with, you know being on the opposite side of the planet and all. You wouldn't want to be cut out of the inheritance, not to mention not receive any support and child care from the extended family, and have all that go to your sister instead, would you?

Also, why would the white nationalists promote race mixing?

I made the same point to Hanania, but I think you need to factor in the incel like sexual aggression of the men as well. I've seen that in the wild first hand, and they'll turn around and race card you if you call them out on it, which isn't exactly endearing.

The comments here are incredibly not surprising, but I can speak for some Indians (I am one, after all).

Despite our growing success, we have A LOT of problems, and they do involve culture. Your typical not rich experience for an Indian life is you're born, you study, you get married (because you have to or else), pop out some kids, go broke raising them and hope you have sons and not daughters or else you're fucked financially and socially. Men bring in money and respect, women don't. But we still need women to be incubators, sex dolls and servants so we can't get rid of them actually!

This means a lot of unhappy marriages despite our low divorce rate, a high population of entitled men who think they can abuse women and get away with it, battered women who are trapped and that their only power is to be mothers to sons they can control.

Another problem is the sense to conform. Depends on each community in India itself but for example, putting effort into looking good (make up and fashion) is considered a "waste of time" and a "Western concept". Unless you're working in a big city or in relevant industries or going to weddings, you get criticism for caring about how you look. It's "attention-seeking". But if we don't look good we're "ugly". Make it make sense!

All this does not help with our perception abroad AND to each other as Indians.

lol, lmao. This man thinks the Japanese stopped the clan system and arranged marriage. No, it just went unspoken, and a smaller number of clans retained power, while many fell off. If you look at roughly half to 75% of Japanese institutions, they’re still controlled by samurai families. Everything from car companies to news media to banks in Japan, way overrepresented by former samurai

I credit this to large degree for Japan’s internal stability. They never really had a dysgenic takeover

As for the main subject of the article, you’re definitely on to something when you mention Cuban vs Gates, post physique is a real thing for right wing psychology. However, it’s not primarily that for Indians. It’s more the fact that they’re so vocal about not meeting that standard, we don’t think about that until they bring it to our attention. With Indians it really is more of a civilizational disgust response. It’s the inverse of the admiration the online right has for Japan. Japan is orderly and clean, properly ordered. To the extent that they’re also perverted, it’s more or less a subculture. Indian culture is perceived to be unclean, loud, violent, stupid. All of the opposite things to what they admire about Japan and old European civilizations. It also deeply offends the right’s white meritocratic sensibilities that they act as an ethnic mafia in hiring, and are incredibly hierarchy-oriented. This rubs whites the wrong way. White right wingers don’t hate hierarchies and aristocracies and even castes, not deep down, they do hate the Indian approach to them though, because it is not effective. India is caste superiority for its own sake. The fact that their country is a failed state doesn’t matter to them, it’s about being king of the scrap heap. Nothing will trigger hatred in the white right more than this. You should only rule if you have the right to rule, you only have the right to rule if you establish peace, prosperity, order, and good public morals.

Did you know that Indians who are far left in the US support a far right menace as PM back home and are his biggest backers despite knowing that he literally condones a riot from his time as Chief Minister? You know that Indians are the largest senders of remittance back home in the world of all nationalities?

Modi isn't really that far right. It's just the mainstream media who sees anything vaguely right wing as fascist. The Gujarat riots are kind of a mess where you can't really blame anyone for it. Gujarat was a pretty violent place back then with frequent riots and Modi had only became the Chief Minister like 2 or 3 months before the riots happened. There's very little evidence of Modi's involvement in the riots but a whole heap of conspiracies around it. The opposition simply blamed Modi because that's what opposition parties do. Gujarat now is way more peaceful and one of the most developed states in India, after Modi, but of course no one talks about that.

Modi isn't perfect, but the current opposition leader is a clueless buffoon with no prior experience in government who was made the leader because the congress party has a huge nepotism problem. The dude has no long term plan except he wants to increase reservation to 50 percent for lower castes and bring in caste based Affirmative action even in private companies, which will destroy the economy. Meanwhile, the "Hindu nationalist" BJP government in Uttarpradesh recently banned caste based slogans in politics and caste based documentation in government agencies which is a major step towards getting rid of the caste system which has mostly been chugging along and kept on life support by the congress.

Modi himself said of the riots “it’s like if a puppy came under your cars wheels” which is the most grotesque thing a world leader has said.

He was clearly talking about it being an accident. I'm not sure what's so grotesque about it. Again, show me actual evidence that he was responsible for the riots. I certainly can't find any. There's so many conspiracies surrounding the Gujarat riots, it's hard to know what the actual facts are.

Indians are negatively stereotyped not just by whites but also by blacks, East Asians, Arabs, Latin Americans etc. One underrated factor for this are the Indian street food reels. Pretty much everyone on Instagram/Tiktok(billions?) saw those reels in early 2020s. Food elicits strong reactions and seeing it being prepared in such disgusting conditions permanently damaged India's reputation. Poverty is no excuse. You can go to war torn Middle Eastern countries and its still prepared/served in a more aesthetically pleasing way. These things matter.

Great article. I would add that Hindus today are extremely concerned about a perceived lack of respect for their religion. For example, they are strongly opposed to attempts to add “caste” as a protected class in U.S. civil rights law because it makes them look bad.
