Whats wrong with being dark skinned or black ?? Why is he trying to retract his statement ? South Indians by far are quite darker than Northern Indians, It's a fact due to many reasons.. So whats this whole fuss about ? All this just reinforces the inherent prejudice that they have for dark skin

Talk about shooting oneself in the foot..

I don't understand the meaning of his statement.

Why would we have the South?

Why would we live with them?

Am I the only one shocked here at the impact of what he's said?

Don't get me wrong. We are probably the most racist people in the world.

But we are at least internally benignly racist.

We kill our own for serious stuff like religion and cows. But no one can accuse us for killing each other on the basis of color.

Which is a good thing. Because the color wars would be a lot more brutal and bigger than communal or regional or caste violence we are prone to having.

what will South Indian sanghis say to this ?

Bharatiya Janata Party leader Tarun Vijay is facing criticism for responding to a question on the allegedly racist attacks on African nationals in Greater Noida by saying if India was, indeed, racist, we would not “live with” “black people around us”. “If we were racist, why would....all the entire South – you know, Kerala, Tamil, Andhra, Karnataka – why do we live with them?” He added, “We have blacks...black people around us.”

Vijay’s remarks triggered outrage soon after they was shared across social media. He took to Twitter to clarify his statement. “In many parts of the nation, we have different people, in colour and never ever we had any discrimination against them...My words perhaps were not enough to convey this,” he said, apologising to those who felt he spoke “differently from he meant”.

The guy who said this, I just googled his pic...he's not very white himself? I mean I've seen South Indians who are more lighter skinned than him. His features look like those that are typical in South India too? I don't get it??

 

[lastofthepatriots]

And North Indians are supposed to white?

Ikr? Just compare the guys in your DP, and my grandfather in my DP to this Tarun Vijay guy. And people say North Indians and Pakistanis look similar??

Having dark skin doesn't make you black, dumb asses!

The man is a total fool. Being dark does not equate to someone being of African lineage.

Bro, it's his racist mind set that's showing. He thinks anyone darker than him is black.

Lol I just googled him bro and burst out laughing.

I just showed his pic to my brother and what he said about South Indians. Confusion (my bro thought he was South Indian himself), followed by laughter. Caste racism has really penetrated these folks minds. Maybe a good look in the mirror will get rid of this subtle racism.

The only thing racist about his statement are the people who associate
being black is bad. South Indians are black, not African but they have the same skin colour. There's nothing wrong with that, black is beautiful too.
