Whyare the English so racist towards Indians and Pakistanis?
I am just sick of all the racism I c on a daily basis towards asians in the uk, why are the english so racist towards us?
Ive lived in england all my life and I am sick of all the racism, I am thinking of emigrating to another country.Other european countrys are less racist towards asians so why are the British an exception?are they inherently racist?
pakistanis are the biggest ethnic minority group in britain so we're just used as scapegoats, and blamed for things like 'stealing jobs and housing'. If we werent here they'd blame all thier problems on someone else.
I find the racism here unbearable too. Just got back from the states and everyone there was so nice. But theres alot of racism directed towards african americans and south americans there.
that's so true, i'm asian and i have lived in england all my life and cannot believe the amount of racism i've seen. it's just sickening to be abused in such a way and i really am considering moving to another country because of it. for e.g, the amount of abuse thrown at amir khan (boxer) is shocking. 'dirty paki', 'pakis have no chins' etc etc.
now english ppl racists against indians, but dont forgot that the money what ever ur country having, that is stolen from india, by cheating indians, ruled for 400 years, fuck english ppl, and one more thing not only asians, lot of europe countries hate ppl of uk(English ppl can also called as racists)
not racist towards asians, just sometimes pakistan people as they are (not all of course, there are nice pakis out there too) clingy and perverted and quite often rude.
Because they need someone to blame for all the problems in their country. We're just a convenient scapegoat since many of us go there as *educated professionals*. Perhaps they are just intimidated.
Acts like this only serve to remind us of how they treated us in our own damned country when they colonized us. Thankfully India is no longer a nation colonized by wankers.
Bro, it's basically an inferiority complex... but in a really weird way. I've noticed that we (South Asians) tend to get an unusually high amount of discrimination. These days a lot of Gorah's basically try and make out like they only hate Pakistanis ("pakis" but really that's just BS - coz they do it to Indians in general as well... it just gives them an excuse to avoid being called "racist". I think because we're one of the more successful groups - and English folks don't really like those more intelligent than them. Not all of them are like that, but if you look how many of these Cbbnts came out of the woodwork to bash Amir Khan just for the sake of it... it is a reasonably high number. Also I guess because unlike other ethnic groups we really don't do it back to them all that much, so it gives them leverage to do it since they won't get any back.
Jahangir bro, you are quite right. In fact they do this to anyone who isn't white but who seems to be doing well. We are a peace-loving people so we don't retaliate so much (unless its a high publicity event like what happened to Shilpa Shetty). This probably makes them think that we are push-overs and they can walk all over us. You know what? Let them think that. That just goes to show how childish and petty they have become. They want us to contribute to their failing economy and their "culture" but they can't do us the courtesy of treating us like equals. Screw them. Narrow-minded bigots!
I've been wanting to pursue an MBA in the UK since a while, but i've only received negative comments regarding treatment of Indians or more broadly, ASIANS there. Is this really so true? What makes them think that white skin deserves preferential treatment? Its not like we Indians are incapable intelectually. We're not incompetent in any way either. In fact if i may say so, we're far more knowledgeable and erudite than a lot of the British themselves.
So why such racist treatment? Is it a crime to be born with darker skin?! I think such behaviour is totally narrow-minded, cheap and of course, UNETHICAL.
racism is wrong is the slogan that most people will say.However,in the real world,racism is considered wrong only when it is done to OUR GROUP.
I have heard that in India the caste system itself has a rigid and unfair colour caste system with the light skin at the top and the darkest Indians at the bottom.
How many of your parents have protested about this racism and injustice? I expect all of your ancestors and parents not only support it but believe in upholding it.
The English are simply treating the light and fair skinned Indians with the same contempt that your parents show towards the lower darker castes back home.
Maybe there is a valuble lesson to be learned through this. You cannot support one racist system that suits your purpose and agenda in India and at the same time cry and protest at another system in England that does not.
Many Pakistani people in the UK dont make any effort to mix with other people, by mixing I dont mean giving up your culture and beliefs.
Hindu people living in the UK have made an effort to mix with other people and subsequently recieve less racist abuse.
Perhaps if Pakistani people made an effort to mix with other people then people would be see so scathing about them.
Until then you can expect to move to another country and not have anything to do with that countries inhabitants and not get stick for it, simple as!
As a black guy born and bred in the UK I have recieved more racist abuse from Pakistani people than I have off of white people.
I have pakistani friends but they get stick for knocking about with me.
It seems unfair that people are turned away from the UK who have been having a hard time in their own country yet its OK for Pakistani people to marry their cousins and bring them over to the UK, why dont you marry muslim people in the UK instead of dragging someone over from pakistan?
I take it that you are from pakistan and if not from pakistan, then a muslim from indian subcontinent. Well, first of all don't use the word "we"(south asians). Its you and us. Don't try to include us in your sorry thesis by by all umbrella words like south asians. I am an Indians and never had an iota of inferiority complex. Its a muslim phenomena and I do not blame it on them completely. Muslims have a sense of insecurity and victimization complex which makes them feel that the whole world i there to discriminate with them.
Regarding your quote that goras hate Indians too though they pretend to hate only pakis, well its half truth and half lie. Half truth because they have no reason to love us, as a fundamental human nature. Half lie because goras don't hate Indians that way they hate pakis because of terrorism.
So, please don't try to include Indians with you. You guys only include indians with you when it suits you. It did not suit you to be together with indians in 1947 and you created a land of your own. Now we dont want to be categorized with you. Don't ask me to forget it for I hate this hypocrisy.
I agree that asians are successful as a minority, but I think that this is due to drive and family values. Which are well placed and have been extremely successful in helping to them to attain a good level of academic and economic advancement.
However most Asian cultures are only able to emulate and copy the achievements of others. Yes they can create variations and adaptions of western technology,dance and model their systems of economics of the West. They have not truly come up with an system that is original to them unlike the West.
If Asians are so bright -so clever why did they not come up with democracy(a system that Asians pretend to hate,but flock to in their millions)
Asians have never come up with technology that has transformed the world like the white people.They simply study other people material pirate it ,copy it and then argue that they are streets ahead of everyone else.
Be honest now ,do you see any white counry copying the Asian model-of course not.They're all over here listening and pirating everyone elses achievements.
You just pride yourself on studying the white man's material.It is our systems that are really lifting you people from the slums.
I heard and have seen Indians actually drinking cows urine.Does this practice still go on.
On another link Indians were actually eating the dung from a cow as it was being expelled from its rectum. This was the most disgusting thing I had ever seen. i cannot respect a culture that sinks to level below that of an
animal.
but really that's just BS - coz they do it to Indians in general as well... it just gives them an excuse to avoid being called "racist". I think because we're one of the more successful groups - and English folks don't really like those more intelligent than them. Not all of them are like that, but if you look how many of these Cbbnts came out of the woodwork to bash Amir Khan just for the sake of it... it is a reasonably high number.
