Poverty shocks student on India trip

[gubbi]

What is it with their obsession with crap?

India's crap*

Must be something about the huge quantity of spices that we eat. Such people obsessed with India's crap are apparently intrigued by the aroma of the spices. Let them enjoy the aromas!

India is on track. Nobody said India eliminated entire poverty. But we are certainly on track in eliminating the poverty. China has started economic reforms 2 decades before India has started but they still have lot of poverty left.
Poverty gap expands in China - Taiwan News Online

By opening these retarded threads every hour, what are you trying to achive except making poor people as a laughing stock!!!! I pity you for your low mentality.

 

[gubbi]

"Hard Cold Facts" period.

Or the aromas that you and your ilk seem to be interested in Mr Mental Troll.

Smell away!!

What can we do when some people stay here in the forum, just to repeat the same thing over and over again. We all know what their true intentions are. They are not here in this forum for a debate. They just want to prove more nationalist by abusing other people which they think is the best they can do in their lifetime.

They even forget that this is an international forum. Instead of a healthy debate they are busy picking up the bad stuff from googling and picking and posting what can hurt/insult others and posting it in such a way that they think all will glorify them for that and all fellow countrymen will lavish them with "thanks".

Well what can we say. If it is enjoyment that they seek, let them have it.

Others can just contribute to the forum and get knowledge through the experience they get through interactions from people with brains like the brilliant senior, elite , experienced members.

Lol, look whoz talkin'! A desi criticizing another desi's habits!

Please don't insult Pakistanis by calling us desi. Most of us are not Muhajirs. Thank you.

Be it Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Nepali or Bangladeshi, people from the Indian Subcontinent (and yes, Pakistan is geographically a part of the Indian subcontinent) are known as Desi! Bet you didnt know that, but like Santa ain't true, son, its true that Pakistanis are known as Desis in lands beyond yonder.

Dont you have any other job than to argue with him? there are a lot of threads which are interesting. why invite more hatred ???

Let him have his own perception about India in general, there is no loss for anybody and he will be happy too.

Leave it bro, its not worth a fight for us.

What an ignorant indian imperialist statement. My family for hundreds of years have lived on Pakistani soil and never once in india. No indian blood in my family and God forbid any indian blood in my future childrens. You immigrated to U.S. and left your homeland to spread your propaganda from there? Sorry only ingorant fools will listen to this rubbish. When you argue this to intelligent ones it will fall on deaf ears. And only uneducated imperialists wanabes spew this garbage.

Mind you, you will be in big trouble if you ever said this to a Pashtun. Don't go around in person saying this. My advice to you.

 

[Pakistani Man]

I'm feeling just a tad bit itchy today.



I say this again to you and will say to any Pashtun I might come across, the term used to describe people from Indian subcontinent is Desi, i.e. unless you prefer the derogatory term being employed to largely address your country men in UK!! This aint no imperialistic statement, son.

As to my being in US, why dont you ask YOUR compatriots or your relatives and question THEIR patriotism!

Anywho, I am done with you. Kudos, you made it to my ignore list. Bye.

The ingorance from you is unbelievable. Did you not finish grade school?

I hope you lift weights child if you are to say this to a Pasthun.

And the derogatory term used in the U.K. is more or a derogratory term for indians as they are all dark skinned and easy to spot in a crowd. Pakistanis rarely get this over there.

And if you want to bring racial terms into this I can insult you 1000 times more about your race and practices than you can ever do to a Pakistani. Thank you.

Mount Si students expand empathy after immersive India visit - Snoqualmie Valley Record

By ALLISON ESPIRITU
Snoqualmie Valley Record Reporter
Mar 26 2010

Daytime lows were in the 90s, but the six girls on the trip had to wear warmer, more modest clothing. They tried to blend in with the culture, but still stuck out like sore thumbs and became the center of attention to many locals.

"Even if you were modest, they stared at you because we were white," said Hannah Hasbun.

As the students toured India taking pictures, the people of India noticed them and wanted to take pictures with them.

"We were like a backdrop for them," Hasbun said. "You can wear the clothes they wear, but you'll never blend in."

"But they loved us," added junior Tracey Piecarczyck. "They were the nicest people. I got lost and they were super helpful."


Reality check

The February trip was the first time most of the seven students had visited a developing nation. They realized pictures can never describe a place, until you are there.

"When you look at a picture of (India) and see they don't have clean water, you feel sad for them. But at the same time you can just turn around and get clean water yourself," Winter said. "But when you're there and you see it isn't clean, you can't just turn around and get it because you don't have clean water or electricity. It's empathy."

Popular pictures depict India's beautiful palaces, temples and trees everywhere, which are there — but to Rehm, the reality for much of India is very different.

Aside from the beauty, students saw many uneducated women with no jobs scraping up garbage on the street into piles, to later be lit on fire.

"I appreciate what I have now so much," Winter said.

Do not message me again Gubbi

"I pity your ignorance, son. Keep up your pseudo-racist attitude and you will go places."

Do not bring race in to this. So ignorant and childish of you. You first bring up foolish "desi" term then U.K. derogratory terms for "Pakistanis" and then I respond and you start crying. Control your childish tendencies. You need alot of maturing.

Buddy, no need to waste your time on an uneducated low life Indian

troll, "He is hurt" thats all, just report his/her will be fine.

Btw, you still new here, he/she is a well known ignorant troll on the

forum

 

[Pakistani Man]

Listen desi brother,
You dont even know me to pass comments. And as regards to the racist term in UK, its interesting that it spells the first 4 letters of your country's name and usually used to address your people who are more in numbers in certain areas (in cities) in UK. And you tell me that the term is used to call Indians? Lol, you mental kya? I know, I have already been in Manchester!
As to insulting me, what more can you say that isnt already common in the subcontinent and that too when you know nothing about me. ROFLMAO!

This post proves that you are highly uneducated and living in a fantasy indian imperialist world. You keep bringing up the U.K. derogratory term why? You cannot come up with an intelligent reply?

Let me repeat to you again. indians in U.K. get the racial term more often than Pakistanis. Why? In U.K. all the dark skinned asians are indians. You understand now? Thank you.
