      it’s only 166 million Dalits slaves upholding the economy.

      Again, what’s source on this number? Most places I’ve looked at gave me less than 10% of what you’ve quoted. And while 16 million is an unfortunately high number, India is the most populated country. Adjusted for population, Saudi and Turkey are way above India.

        Every source I could find by googling “number of Dalits in India” was my source for 166 million. Yes, it is a huge portion of the population. You not knowing about it is proving my point.

                Modi appreciated your attempts at disinformation. I have spoken with Dalits and the people trying to help them and have gone out of my way to learn about their strifes. You passively absorbed whatever the state tells you to think, and now regurgitate it, contributing to their continued exploitation. Way to defend slavery, fascist asshole.

                  No one is denying discrimination faced by dalits but to claim every single dalit is a slave is fucking stupid. Do you also think all 47 million black people in USA are in prison?

                  Also your links don’t mention the slavery of 160 million people.

                  The only reason you’re saying this is because you’re a racist cunt. Crawl up in Trump’s asshole and jerk yourself off till you’re a dehydrated husk.

                  …

                  Fuck. I wish I had as much confidence as ignorant westerners like you.

                    Lol posting links to sources with facts is misinformation and trolling but ignoring them and misrepresenting my arguments isn’t? Wow, that’s a new one.

                    I’m not saying 100% of them are slaves, that’s a ridiculous argument that required no response because it was so stupid. But the vast majority are. #notalldaits is not a valid argument. Neither is whataboutism. I don’t even live in the US.

                    I believe what the experts fighting this problem are teaching, the vast majority of whom are Indian. If you want to know what I believe, read the links I posted. Are they all misinformation? Is it trolling to be passionate about solving this massive issue?

                    Criticizing the Indian government isn’t an attack against Indians or you personally unless you support them. If you are a Modi supporter, then yes, I am attacking your personal beliefs because they are immoral. But there are MANY Indians I am agreeing with, joining what they are saying; this isn’t some western bullshit opinion I have alone, no matter how much you try and misrepresent my argumentments to be something stupid.

                    If you have an issue with what I’m saying, take it up with my sources, I’m just a conduit. I’m done talking with you.
