Truly very original. But seriously, countries are complex and a country of 1.4B is even more complex. India has the highest of highs and lowest of lows. Some parts are highly functional, others struggle. A country, a people, an individual are allowed to work on multiple things at once, succeed at some, fail at another - all in the same story.

That people can't grasp Indian success in some areas and failures in others just shows a myopia of understanding. The world is ruled by randomness, change, and endeavor. No where is it more apparent than India.

Indians are dirty shitskins

>On colonial European bathing habits

It is hilarious that people are so sensitive about this. Around pre-colonial and even into colonial times & due to prevalent notions around the spread of disease and inattention to hygiene - many Europeans did not bathe daily and would limit them selves to wiping random parts of themselves with a wet clothe. Later they integrated daily bathing.

The insecurity around this is laughable precisely because in the past 300 years at minimum, Western Europe has blown past most other civilizations in achievement & technology. At other periods of history, this area, particularly NW Europe was considered a barbarian backwater (ask the Romans). People rise and fall & people have quirks. This is very natural. No need to seethe about it.

Now Europe is descending after a great rise. The world looks towards America and Asia. You can cope all you want but there is not an in built superiority that will continue the gulf we see today.

>Colonialism

As I've been writing about India since 2019ish, I've noticed many trends. One of which regards colonialism.

Previously, colonialism was framed as the catch-all cause of India's problems. We would be shown wildly inaccurate numbers like $45 TRILLION as how much Britain looted India. Almost all of India's modern problems would be blamed on colonialism, with the rest pinned on the present administration.

And therein lies the clue as to what all was happening.

Besides British colonialism being an easy get-out-of-jail free card for all of India's problems, it also provided an excuse for the dismal handling of India primarily by the INC for nearly 7 decades. Not just that, but it also obfuscated the devastating impact of Islamic rule centuries prior.

However now, the pendulum has swung in the opposite direction. Now we are hearing how the British Raj was GOOD for India. Some even extend that nicety to prior Turkic imperialism despite it being fantastical levels of inequality (hence how so many marvelous monuments were erected in such a short time). These twin colonizations (the Mughals always referred to themselves as non-Indian Timurids or "Gurkaniyas" in their own words while the Delhi Sultanate & other empires similarly regarded themselves as superior Turks, not inferior Indians) have been nothing less than catastrophic for India, regardless of any positive residue they left.

My view is that foreign imperialism has been highly destructive for India for the past 800 years. We see this with the drop in GDP % share from a pre-Islamic 35% to 25% by the time the Marathas wrestle control of India from the Mughals. And of course the infamous drop after British colonization. Beyond this, the near total absence of scientific achievement post Islamic invasions is a massive tell as even al-Biruni notes how the Indians, famous for science, had retreated into ignorance and survival after repeated invasions from Central Asia. Meanwhile, the British annihilated Indian industry & domestic production through an deviously ingenious series of economic policies, alliances with treasonous Indian rulers, & attaching spikes to the wheels of a colonially colored capitalism which shred and ran India into the ground.

India is best when sovereign & self-assured. It is at its height when it can utilize that famed Upanishadic introspection to improve rather than self-flagellate like so many Indians do to virtue signal today.

>post colonial decline
Doesnt this just mean that India effectively relied on colonialism?
I think colonialism in general wasn’t even that amazing, in exchange for providing infrastructure it gave browns a easy, cheap excuse to invade white countries as a form of ‘revenge’

>>16069707
funny how he says "highest of highs" when they really don't, unless they're talking about ceos which is just in-group nepotism and force by numbers.

>>16069791
Indians haven't been self-governed in centuries and now that they are the world is reminded of why that was

SAAR!

If you as q culture/nation aren’t able to not be dominated by other, stronger empires are you even deserving of independence?
