Americas' Canadian company under fire for mocking Indian customer’s name

[Bilal9]

The only person sounding uneducated and completely uninformed and ignorant of the history of the Kanishka bombing and the efforts of the Indian governments that followed over the next few decades is surely not Krishna.

You have an axe to grind sure. But do it subtly. Especially when you carry the responsibility of a Moderator.

Nothing moderate about your India and Indian baiting off late Bilal.

You were better. When we used to discuss road bikes. What happened? Got religion?

Indians (especially extremist Hindus) got religion bhai, accusing me of being religious (nothing wrong with it) is rather pointless, those who know me and my posts for the last decade believe otherwise.

Hijabis and Miss Universe contestants are the same in my book, all are human beings. Take a look at my Avatar too.

To be factual, extremist Hindu Indians did not really get true religion, but beliefs in a largely pseudo-religious extremist myth to push and further a "manufactured fictitious historical greatness narrative" (mixed in with bias and hate against Muslims) which Indians sorely needed for some reason. Religions usually don't teach hate but the RSS and Shivsena which justify their hate through religion - do. This hate is abhorrent to all religious and non-religious people globally, outside India.

This Indian phenomenon over the last decade has become painfully obvious to those of us who were not Indians or refused to "drink the Indian BJP/RSS/Shivsena Kool Aid". These Kool Aid drinkers are now laughably picking nation-based fights with innocuous countries like Canada who formerly helped India step into the age of being a Nuclear power.

Before pointing fingers at me as a biased Mod - think about who and what you are supporting as a Mod. I don't bait Indians. Objectivity is one of the prized qualities of a Mod and being anti-anything is not part of that job description.

I take objectivity very, very seriously as a Mod and generally in my personal life.

I have said this to some of the Indian posters here and will repeat it again, this Forum as a platform will not be used to further fictitious RSS or Shivsena extremist Social Media propaganda, whether from India or anywhere else. That is what Mod privileges will be used for - among other things.

Discuss India and Indian development in general all you want. We are all interested. Just be sure to present supporting evidence.

Notice not many complain about anti-Muslim hate here in this forum (because it is coming from mostly extremist Indian posters and I guess they do not care), but those of us who have been around for a while and used to (and still) love the India (and Indians) which used to be secular, normal and open-hearted (and the culture which was largely non-biased about all religions) are disappointed quite a bit. Before you blindly accuse me of grinding axes, think about that.

I go to India almost every year and all my secular highly-educated Indian friends (mostly Hindu) echo these same concerns, whether they reside in India or abroad.

Bhai I hear you. But by count there are 3 active Indian posters here. One is an open Hindutwavadi in the BJP camp. One a wishy washy free love beef eating sort who in nonetheless firmly in the BJP camp. And a closet Hindutwavadi. The above two are nationalists. And one is a dyed in the wool secularist super conservative (not a molecule of liberalism) old school Congress guy who is an Indian patriot.

How will it help the forum to stifle genuine Indian voices. Will it get you the sort of Indians you like and want?

They are respected moderators on the other forum. And even there are in the minority and fighting the Indian hordes as veritable brown Uncle Toms.

How long are Saif and you going to prop up this "Pakistani" forum by starting and populating 3000 topics a day on the Bangladeshi sub forum?

Do you perchance miss the ridiculousness of every topic on earth, be it US or Russia or China or Ukraine or Gaza or Lebanon being discussed on the Bangladeshi forum?

Has Bangladesh become the self styled UN on this forum? Its a genuine question .

Cheers, Doc

Whatever your personal opinion about the Bangladeshi Sub-Forum - we should discuss it in a discreet manner instead of discussing it openly, like you are doing here.

No one here is trying to stifle genuine Indian voices. Period. Have them post within the bounds of civility, all will be good.

I generally see no problem in posting subjects about Bangladesh or any other subject globally as long as it is not offensive to any group, religion, ethnicity or nationality, and per my discussion with the admins, it is not an issue.

As long as the banter is friendly and civil, it will attract more members and posters of all stripes to come here and post.

The fact that Saif has been posting about different topics in the Bangladeshi forum is a credit to this global forum. The Bangladeshi Sub-Forum was one of the largest non-Pakistani sub-Forums to be started from the get-go and because of Saif's organization efforts (mine also, to some extent), the Bangladeshi sub-Forum is what you see today.

Posters and members in the other sub-forums here are also encouraged to post vigorously (including the Indian forum). If they do not - and instead complain about why Bangladeshi posts are too many, then whose fault is it?

Let's try to organize and grow the Indian sub-Forum.

Are we going to muzzle Saif because he posts on Bangladeshi subjects vigorously? He likes to post about different subjects and that is fine.

Instead of complaining, try to keep up with Saif and ask Indian posters (as their Mod) to inform and entertain us with their high quality posts.

There are enough people and posters from India compared to Bangladesh, it should not be a problem.

Why is this common sense topic so hard to understand?

This will be my last post on this subject.
