    Yea Hindu nationalism is kind of built around that. If you are poor you are poor because you deserve it. And we are rich because we deserve it etc…

    Interviewed a guy from the Communist party about caste among other thing and even they have a hard time getting people out of the caste think among their own members.

    It’s so hard rooted you need a revolution to even scratch the surface of it.

        Sure I’m no expert , just touched on the subject in my research. My focus was on the forced displacements done. Which was justified by many things caste , scheduled tribes that got “benefitted” by moved in to the desert. As I said very hard ingrained everywhere. but of course it’s about money and power. Just like everywhere else religion , social and politics, tradition and so on can justify it.

        Just like money is about politics.

        Bad wording on my part. King of the hill politics then if you wish.

        Im just not a hippie that wants to justify shitty thing since they got high in Goa once. Who’s larping uh.

            Sure. Sorry if beeing confrontational. Started this after a few drinks. Main research was MP tourism establishing stealing lands, Many were tribal others not. A big cohort of foreign and domestic money , corruption and violence (direct and indirect).
