I am an Indian-American and what I have noticed is that just about any thread - no matter how innocuous - that is about Indians invariably ends up being multi-paged with a whole host of posts.

Not all Americans. Just (too) many of the ones living in DC and frequenting DCUM.

You've posted similar statements before. Every, single time I feel so sorry for your half Indian children who will face the same discrimination and prejudices from society and their own mother.
Umm I've never posted on here about thisWhy can't I have an opinion? I've been to India 5 times. I stayed for a month each time, spending time in Mumbai, Goa, Delhi, and several other places on my way to the lower reaches of the Himalayas. For all I know my kids will turn out damaged and horribly behaving adults. You never know.
The trait I have seen SO often— unabashed arrogance, their need to command center stage, to talk endlessly, to constantly interrupt, all from the beginning of an encounter to the end of an encounter. Indians rarely dialogue, they monologue. It is hard not to conclude that they see themselves as special, better, more knowledgeable about anything and everything than the person they find themselves with. I invariably come away from such conversations—if they can be called that—thinking of Indians as simply insufferable. And yet while I don’t why they are this way, I suspect it is very much bound up with India’s long rigid caste system, one in which privilege and the sense of entitlement and so much more have been determined by position in a stifling class hierarchy as formal and determining as any the world has ever known.
Can all Indians be characterized as I have drawn attention to them here? Certainly not. But, then, it is not without reason that Indians and Koreans and Americans and Jews and Arabs and Russians are often stereotyped. They are stereotyped because more often than not through experience we come to expect them to act in particular ways, and more often than not we are not disappointed.
The very same can be turned around around said about--
the lazy, fat, arrogant, guns obsessed, self-centered, un-cultured, nice to your face but nasty behind your back and sports obsessed whites that live in America. And I've been all around America, from the New Orleans, to Atlanta, to D.C., to N.Y, to Minneapolis, to Chicago, to L.A, to Dallas.
I suspect it's very much bound up in their long history of slavery and racism as well as sense of entitlement they felt coming to a new land and taking over through violence and rebellion. Their elite attitude of using non-whites as their manual labor to form this nation. From the Blacks to the Chinese to the Italians. They were all unabashedly arrogant from the slaveowners, to the ruling elites of the north and everyone in between. I find the whites insufferable.
Can all whites be characterized as I have drawn attention to them here. Certainly not. That's why I married one, he's just different from all the rest of them.
They are stereotyped because more often than not through experience we come to expect them to act in particular ways and more often than not we are not disappointed.

did you read the article or just look at the pix? The reason why they did this is because people with money were cheating by buying off teachers, test proctors, etc... They wanted to level the playing field. Not saying it's right. But these people don't really have the types of opportunities we have here.
But you are right, when groups of people cheat, generally people dislike them, kiind of like the big corporations or rich people that cheat on taxes and/or have offshore bank accounts to avoid US taxes. The public generally hate these kinds of people.
Still it's messed up.

+1 I'm not Indian. Why did you marry him if you find him annoying since you stated "them"?
Because I loved him, and I knew that he was the love of my life, as well as my dearest friend. I was 100% committed to him, and I knew he was to me. So it started to seem reasonable to marry. BTW, I find Indians from India annoying because of their arrogance. My husband is thankfully not like this.
Your praise of your husband is all in past tense. Very telling.
I am amazed as to how he could marry someone like you though?

^^Here is an example of an anti-Indian person. They pull out stuff from their a** and post here.
This is the same group of people who thought that that Duggars were the best thing since sliced bread.
From their ass? It was ALL over the news.
