Here, read this tripe. Our betters say you need to accept everyone. It is good for you.
"In North America, the word “diversity” is strongly associated with racial diversity. However, that is just one dimension of the human reality. We also differ in gender, language, manners and culture, social roles, sexual orientation, education, skills, income, and countless other domains. In recent years, some advocates have even argued for recognition of “neurodiversity,” which refers to the range of differences in brain function.
Research shows that differences do make it harder for people to connect and empathize with each other. Navigating differences can be tough, whether in the classroom, the workplace, or our personal relationships—and yet people all over the world d...

Open borders + 1965 Hart Celler Act + paying welfare taxes + minority set asides + affirmative action + Woke + Being demonized by government + hiring quotas + CRT + Struggle sessions + hate crimes excluding hate aimed at whites etc etc. Is that enough for you? How about special programs that allow foreign workers over domestic hires?

Stop disregarding, you look like a fool. Even if a Hindu separated your head from your neck and it was rolling down the street, you wouldn't "get it".
I believe you're infected with a disease called progressivism.
White people have been selected to be systematically repressed and bred out of existence. The white people are too stubborn and resist totalitarian control, unlike the brown peoples of the world (with a few notable exceptions). Once the whites are eliminated (except for the elites), next on the list are the stubborn brown exceptions.
The English virtually enslaved their lower classes, and under Cecil Rhodes and the East India Company, dominated Asia and Africa. The modern elites want a return to this system.
Good luck to you @FarmersWon. Watch out for those dirty Hindus. LMAO

You may be right.
But I want to see example and who is doing it and how?
Brown/Black people have no power to do it.
In Sparta, the Rich Eat You
The problem, of course, is that if a situation ever arose within this system where the gerousia and the kings specifically had a community of interests (read: they wanted the same things) – even if it was to the disadvantage of the community as a whole – the neat system of restrained power falls apart. And that’s exactly what seems to have happened.
In essence, what we have is the formation of a clique around the two kings which consisted of the wealthiest of the spartiates – the ones who had benefited the most from the steady consolidation of kleroi into ever larger and ever fewer estates. We know that the wealthiest families tended to want to marry each other in order to keep and consolidate those large estates (Plut. Lys. 30.5, Agis. 5.1-4). Success in this necessarily meant being close to the kings, because they approved of the marriages of heiresses and widows (discussed above). So friends of the kings might land favorable marriages for themselves or their children – alternately, a rich spartiate would want to make friends with a king to pursue the interests of their estates. Of course, the kings themselves were the richest men in Sparta, and so could also bestow gifts and wealth all on their own.
Meanwhile, election to the gerousia was the one office actively canvassed for (ancient canvassing often more nearly resembled modern electoral bribery). The kings – in their competition with each other – had a vested interest in seeing their own friends on the gerousia. But consider what might make a spartiate’s service conspicuous enough to win election. He might have been a capable officer – positions appointed by the kings (in their role as chief warleaders), with the most successful officers dining with the kings while on campaign. He might have held some sort of public office – the ephorate is random, but the pythioi are selected by the kings. Or he might be generous with his wealth – as we’ve already established, the wealth is arrayed in a phalanx around the kings.
So the friends of the king are the men in the best position to become gerontes when they turn sixty – and it will be in the king’s interest (in his competition with the other king!) to see that they become so, using his considerable influence and wealth to ease that path. While our sources don’t explicitly tell us this is what happened, we do know that the wealthiest spartiates dominated the state (e.g. Arist. Pol. 2.1270b; Plut. Agis 7.1-2), that this was the result of the inheritance system, that the kings controlled that system, and that the kings and their families ended up at the center of the web of wealth and influence running the Spartan state (Plut. Agis 9.3).
It isn’t that the system lets the kings consolidate power – there are two of them, after all and the gerousia is always looking to preserve its privilege in judging the conduct of the kings. Rather, the system practically ensures that the wealthiest spartiate families will be socially arrayed around the kings and that these families will tend to be dominant in the gerousia.
None of these people is going to want to redistribute land or bring the hypomeiones back into full citizenship, because that would mean de-consolidating their land holdings, in order to provide kleroi for the new spartiates it would create.
The problem is that, in any case where the gerousia and the kings have a community of interest, the checks in this system immediately break down. The ephors are supposed to police the actions of the kings, but they do so by recommending the kings to prosecutions before the gerousia. So while a king might be brought low for self-aggrandizement abroad or dissolute behavior at home, one imagines that the gerontes will not be quick to convict a king for using his authority over heiresses and widows to expand the fortunes of…the gerontes and their families.
And the weakness of the apella explains why the spartiate families slowly but surely falling off of the bottom of the the spartiate class were unable to do anything to help themselves. The apella can’t set its own agenda. Even if they got very lucky and one – or several! – ephors were sympathetic to their plight, the gerousia could simply set aside the decision of the apella. And, of course, to top it off, anyone who actually did fall below the financial threshold was ineligible for the apella or the ephorate. The system ‘solved’ the problem of poor spartiates by removing poor spartiates from the system.
We eat the rich, or the rich eat us.

OK kid enjoy your time in woke school and be happy calling "you are racist" without proof to anybody you disagree.
We have identified Hindooo Nazi as dangerous and oppressive, Either they will kill us or we end their reign of terror.. But rest assured, We won't accept their slavery.
Believe me, you will be a slave. Maybe not a slave to the scary, dirty Hindu but, a slave you certainly will be. Why? Because you refuse to see the forest through the trees. You are a tool. Nothing more than a tool.
OK I get it now!
When I watch cooking videos out of Asia, I'm always perplexed by the amount of cleaning they do to the raw meat in preparation.
It can be as big of an ordeal as cooking can be. How meticulous they get, I always though to myself. If the meat is that bad the probably shouldn't be eating it.
I wonder if they did that as part of a cultural culinary process or because the meat was really that tainted.
Rubbing it down with salt, and baking soda, and rinsing two or three times until the water runs clean sound prudent with meat from the trunk.
What % of Sikhs live in Muslim countries?
Sikh and Muslim hate each other or no?
Do Sikhs ever fight back?
Might look into this good spirits take:

Cows are sacred. Steers and Bulls are not. Cows are female, steers are castrated male bovines, and steers are not. When you eat a steak, it's very likely it was a steer.
