With the exception of Arab Muslims, I don’t think I’ve seen an ethnic group with more cohesion and less infighting than South Asians. Like they have the same mindset and values wherever they go. Not saying that’s a bad thing at all, just my observation.
>>216403020
Lmfao we have absolutely no cohesion. We do all get along to some extent. For example I even get along with Pakistanis well, but we aren't a cohesive unit that politically mobilizes like Arab Muslims
t. Indian diaspora

I think it's an honest worldview. You can't simply move to a western country and become "american/British/australian". It's simply dishonest and you're still Indian or wherever you're from. Trust me, its better they declare their true allegiances rather than pretend to be something they're not. West is cosmopolitan anyway. These "we're all american" types of ideas are fake

If “the west is cosmopolitan”, then it should be very easy for immigrants to integrate, especially New World countries with little history. Idk about Australia but America is kind of famous for it. Like this past November we had Mexican immigrants waving American flags and asking Donald Trump to mass deport illegals.

I am Polish, living in Poland and I think Poland is one of the best countries to live in the entire world right now.
Also you are a fucking retard if you actually think the Baltics, V4 and Romania aren't part of the western world.
>>216403020 >Cohesion
You're talking about a region where even with plenty of religious and ethnic differences, threw in caste in there to find something else to discriminate against each other
>>216406769
The Indians that come here are disproportionately high caste and Hindu, so not much to fight over. Something like 90% of our Indian immigrants are high caste.

Because Filipinos and Vietnamese despise their home countries and suck off America like there’s no tomorrow. Cambodians aren’t really that patriotic for either country.

Sadly yes. Gupta, Patel, and Singh are all high caste surnames. The only reason why we’re not getting literal slum dwellers is because you can’t walk to America and a flight from Mumbai to New York is way too expensive for many Indians.

We're mostly proud of our diaspora, like the Irish.
Nobody is going around crying about the Spaniards who left for latam in the 1900s, if anything we've only started getting disillusioned with our diaspora recently when we started leaving to wash dishes in northern europe.

What that anon means by "high caste" here is affluent and old-money people. They can afford overseas education and immigration.
That's the most glaring difference between these castes.

Don't listen to that faggot, anon. Please come to Texas and open more restaurants. There were two Greek families where I grew up (East Dallas suburb) that had a bbq place and a burger place. The burgers were pretty good but the BBQ was fucking incredible.
