I found your remark spot on: “The difference is that we lecture everybody and try to make others feel that they are unfortunately, stupid!”

This has happened quite often, in different situations, that I’ve wondered if it is a national trait. Sure, we all say “Hey let’s not judge.” But the reality is, national traits do exist. Some of these are good, other qualities are not so.

Anyhow, the point is it’s come to the degree that I’m consciously catching myself from stereotyping Indian expatrates. Part of me would like to believe that, like all people, Indians are decent, and worthy of respect, and that I can learn to like and work with them. But honestly, it’s really getting harder to do so as time goes by.

I’d like to believe that my experiences are isolated cases, but judging from your blog there appears to be more to this.

Kudos for having the courage to speak out about this. We all have blindspots; it’s useful to get feedback, however painful it may be, and resolve to change.

Further looking at this arrogance…it also reveals a deep hatred of Australia and for White people in general. An outsider mentality. Yet we in the West are supposed to take in more people of this toxic mentality. The statement is also lacking in intelligence, is extremist, and attempts to make Western countries appear ‘dependent’ on Indians. Really funny, when the per capita income of India is below many Latin American banana republics. You have ZERO to be arrogant about. And yet you people habitually come up with these grandiose statements while your own house is undesirable and holds no desire for anyone, except the poorest of Asia.

Australia is a wonderful country and has always done well. People want to move there. Who wants to move to India?

The case system is rotten, where the so-called ‘higher’ castes routinely look down on the so-called ‘lower’ castes. So when these ‘higher’ castes (self-delusional, rude, arrogant, silly people) go overseas, they naturally try to look down on the locals. It makes them feel better. Comes naturally to them. And what also comes natural is for the host society to look upon the aliens as offensive, standoffish, smelly, unwelcome, and profoundly DUMB for having these uncivil behaviors and thoughts in the first place.

Finally, what’s good or not good for Australia is for the Australians to decide. Not Marxist journalists or Indians who don’t like the country in the first place. Guarantee that if a 1,000 Australians were polled about immigration, all 1,000 of them would want the unwanted aliens to leave.
Case closed.

And it is only in recent months that the number of students has actually increased.
So these ‘third world’ Indians are an integral part of the Australian economy whether you like it or not. Australians should bear in mind that unless proven otherwise, the Indian immigrants are still legal citizens of the country and should be treated as such. If they understand this and still commit crimes against them, it’s pure racism.

Again, I stress the fact that there is NO justification for the violent crimes against Indians. If Australians are irritated by the behaviour of Indians, either tolerate it, or report it to the police. That’s what civilised human beings do. But stabbing and murdering? Even people in failed states don’t do that.
Most of the Americans that I have come across have been rude, arrogant, treat anyone who’s not from their country like dirt (unless there is some financial deal involved) and abuse like hell if they don’t get their way. They seem to think that everybody is their servant. They feel that since the people that they deal with don’t speak English, it is alright to abuse them and laugh at them. If you want to know what the world thinks about Americans, Google ‘Why are Americans…’ and see the majority of results that auto complete gives you. And if money is raised to help ‘orphans’ and ‘cleft-lipped’ kids, it is only for the purpose of bringing glory to those TV shows and to portray them in a good light so the gullible people actually fall for them and in turn, the ratings rise. If you really intend on doing something with a good heart, don’t tell the world about it. Besides, India is still a developing country, so it’s understandable that it’s priority is helping it’s own people, which we do. There are countless NGOs that provide help to the backward classes, women and children. These NGOs secure the support of the people by going to schools, colleges and offices and discussing the various problems they deal with. Thus people donate money and offer the help required to run these organisations. In some places the government works hand in hand with these NGOs and even funds them. And since India is a multi cultural country, technically, we do raise money for the causes of other cultures. Incidentally, the World Bank and IMF feel that the economic boom in China and India will help more than two-thirds of developing countries meet a 2015 goal of reducing poverty and hunger. It looks like we’re cleaning up the mess a certain western country created.

In spite of all this, I still believe in keeping an open mind about people from all countries. Because I know that, in most cases, it is a handful of idiots that give a bad name to an entire country. And the people who judge are usually the ones who are the most narrow minded.

‘Americans are disliked everywhere they go too, because they don’t give a damn about other cultures, all they care about is oil and money(and their own culture!). ‘
And what Americans have you met in India? We have TV shows here that raise money for orphaned and cleft-lipped kids in India. Do Indians ever raise money for causes for other cultures? No, because they’re too selfish and lazy. Americans and Europeans do indeed make friends and connections in the foreign lands they visit, depending on length of stay too. We are more curious and friendly than you people. Indians are famous for being totally aloof and in their own little tribal, clannish world. Everyone notices this the world over, and it’s been written about by legions of people in different continents over a long period of time. Guess what, that’s a national trait….just accept the fact (I know it’s difficult for Indians to accept concrete truth. You have to fight and argue everything. Being *difficult to deal with*…very Indian too).

And if the good outweighs the bad in India, then why are there huge lines of people every day trying to get out?

I do agree with one statement of Graham: The Australian government should ban Indians.
