"to compete with superpowers (i.e. for clout),..."

Don't you understand that we are not here for show off and compete? We are competing against superpowers called poverty and societal backwardness, security of merchant navy, and all, not WEST. West is our ally and vice versa.

In fact, I have given multiple examples like Ed-Tech platforms, internet penetration for MSME, and all, but you won't listen only to come back to square one - superficial effort against superpowers. If this is not judgmental, then what is it? If this is not racist, then what is it?

The project reports are required to detail the outline the intended outcomes. Now another round is made for such outcomes to be compare at state and national level. Multiple permissions and meeetings are done here about this. In between all of these, consultants from McKinsey and BCG are brought in along with experts to assess the practicality of claims. This is not enough for you? Oh, wait. you are ignorant, how would you know?

"There is no reason for you to have taken my comment so personally..." Why not? You say Indians are inefficient and not intelligent enough to have their own problems solved. That is racist. It doesn't matter if you talk about a country like India or India itself. You are racist to talk about a country like India then, that is all. It still makes you racist is what I want to say.

"I made a point and stated an opinion." - YOU WERE QUICKLY JUDGEMENTAL. Always ask and then say. At least say by framing it is a question to get the benefit of doubt.

A closed mind cannot be filled. Nor is an open one with a holes under. So please stop suggesting me and start listening.



The OP has a stretch of whole bunch of comments where they are simply confidently wrong but never admit it. Don't bother, it's not worth your time, just flag and move on otherwise you'll end up in 10 level deep comment threads that go nowhere.

All you could muster is tu quoque fallacy. No surprises there.


> You say Indians are inefficient and not intelligent enough to have their own problems solved.

No, I never said that. I didn't even imply it. You just decided to 'hear' that and then strike back.

It's so incredibly ironic that you are accusing me of having a closed mind in this thread.


Well what exactly are you implying sitting on the other side of the earth to suggest that Indian could have done better elsewhere? Like We Indians never have had that thought crossed our mind? We are incapable of running cost-benefit analysis and SWOT analysis? Yours is the novel idea that we should have paid heed to and should now be regretting wasting millions of dollar?

What are you implying or what are you trying to say if not my 'hearing' then?

I am all ears now. Go on!


> I am all ears now. Go on!

You came out swinging with bs accusations of racism, and tons of insults, clearly breaking the HN guidelines numerous times because of your own asinine assumptions.

Why should I bother to put in effort to converse with you, when you are going out of your way to misconstrue and insult, and coming from a place of extreme defensiveness and patriotism?

If you had not tainted this entire thread, I would have loved to have a productive discussion, and if I'm wrong be corrected and learn something.

But how is that possible now after your tirades and insults? As you even said you took what I said emotional and became very heated. Worst case, I might be ignorant, but I'm not racist or hateful against people of any race or country, and you said an awful lot of crappy things, much worse than anything I've said.
