>>213615339I don't think of myself as racist but I do genuinely resent how they post in English language forums, forums that are pretty much for people from western cultures, and not only do they not speak the language well enough to do so, they also clearly don't understand western culture well enough to do so. They can't understand the irony, they can't get the right tone, they don't have the right sensibilities. They butt into conversations and social spaces where they can only have a net negative impact because they're too culturally different to join in correctly. Too much is going over their heads, they lack awareness of what they're intruding on.
Its ironic because this is probably very similar to how a lot of people feel towards autists, and this is a space for western autists. But the difference is autists have to live in society and they have the intrinsic right to exist and live that comes from being born into that society. If they're a buzzkill and a cringe machine and they just can't get with the flow with everyone else, well that's annoying but they're nevertheless where they're supposed to be. They have every right to be here, and there's nowhere else they're more so supposed to be. The Indians are going out of their way to try and engage with western websites they have to go out of their way to access. They find these forums from completely different societies and say "this is for me".
