    I saw someone comment that they need to get those people under control because Indians were compatible with the American lifestyle. I wasn’t sure exactly what they meant but it did leave me wondering if the thought was “They know their place”.

      I think it might mean the caste system where certain people are kept at a certain level. The haves always have, and the have nots serve them.

      If that’s what they meant, then the irony is delicious.

      Maybe they’re saying all the Modi supporters are compatible with right-wing grift culture? I imagine they approve of Modi being all buddy-buddy with Putin, that’s for sure.

        yeah, i think it’s honestly lately because Trump likes modi.

        if this weren’t far right dumbasses i might think they were referring to the hyper patriarchal society and 50 years behind gender views that are common in that country, but i don’t think they actually know anything about India. if they did, they’d probably be all about the arranged marriages and legal martial rape.

      Looks like you figured it out to me.
