Could be Pakistani. The most Indian-hating person I ever met was a Pakistani guy.
Honestly it’s either or. I knew a couple of guys back in uni, one Indian the other Pakistani and they were really tight. Maybe it’s just the narrow minded bigots who blindly hate another because of political history rather than treat them as an individual.
Also knew an Israeli and a Palestinian (weren’t tight as such but were friendly with each other).
Honestly, it’s a love-hate relationship. There’s nobody they hate more than the other, at the same time there’s nobody who understands them better than the other.
Even then, the hate is mostly political. It’s politically beneficial to both countries to keep the hate flowing.

India and Pakistan have a bit of a history
Understatement of the century ☝️
I mean, we’re on Lemmy, every American here hates America
Indians brought their caste discrimination system over here…
I used to work with this lifted-truck literally red-necked red neck. He kept going on about how hot his girl was, and how white she was.
One day he shows me her picture, and she was indeed a very hot dark skinned Latina. Some people are just in denial.
A lot of Latin American people see themselves as white and would get very offended if you suggest otherwise
Edit: Sorry I had no idea latinx was offensiveThey’d certainly get offended if someone referred to them as “latinx”, lol
Having had this conversation with literally 300+ hispanic people, never once has a single one had a single positive thought about “latinx”. Gendered nouns is literally a large part of their language.
Genered nouns is the backbone of so many goddamn languages. The people being offended by it are the ones that don’t speak that tongue.
Yea the whole thing started and is mostly used by a fringe people who are going a tad too far with political correctness.
Mind you, I’m fine with political correctness and I’m left leaning but sometimes you can go to far.
But if someone wants to be referred to by those terms then be my guest.
Anon actually so racist can’t tell Indians apart from Pakistanis
