Your experience is clearly limited

I've said before. The Indians have even lost my woke sister and feminist mother, they're that bad


Of course it's limited, that's why I'm trying to garner further insight into why some people have an issue with them. I often hear people talk about how bad areas like Brampton are, but it's a bit confusing to me not having personally had any negative experiences.

Just talk to people

Alot of grievances include:

Many of them smell absolutely rancid and they have no shame about this, they're proud of it and it's intentional

Complete lack of personal hygiene when working at fast food or other restaurants, buying food is at your own peril

Indian owned places hire only Indians so they can pay them less and make them work for free overtime, steal their tips, etc., while threatening to revoke their work visas and have them deported if they don't fall in line

Very commonly attempt to scam you via classifieds/other

Openly discriminate against non-Indians when renting or hiring, ties in to point #3 on how they abuse their own people and see nothing wrong with it.

In particular, their horrible smell has made public transit completely unbearable for many people. I can handle it but many others can't

Altogether, the principle issue is that they simply don't have our culture of treating people equally, fairly, with dignity. They come from a caste system where they openly exploit and look down on people they consider inferior (their own people beneath them) and see nothing wrong with it. That's a huge problem

Iirc elite worked at a Wendy's and most of the fast food places have brown people on questionable visa status as of late that's probably his primary source of grievance with the dark skinned folks

My limited experience has been that of my colleagues, the Indians are often overqualified, better educated, and significantly more polite than the natives. I haven't had any negative experiences outside of the workplace either.

Are "the Indians" problematic because someone told you so online? Or is this based on your personal experience and you've decided the entire group is an issue?


I've had quite the opposite experience both in ABET EE/CE academia with Indian and Nepal foreign exchange students. Also, in industry at top tech companies in the Twin Cities. The big issue has been the 'yes' culture and racist calculus in hiring following the stereotype bolded in your post. Could rant for a while on the specific cases, but in general been really disappointed with the Indian highly educated workers.

Have dealt with CV fraud, blatant cheating during testing, lying about state of work progress, alleging other engineer reviewed work, hot mic berating co-workers (PM called a Rat by one guy...), obvious HR policy violations around politicizing at work, slow response to high value incidents, absurd work estimations, near useless offshore teams like QA that doesn't test beyond happy path.

Maybe I've got bad luck with my experience working along Indian engineering and tech people, but the good ones, professionally speaking are few and far between.

Why do you enjoy anybody suffering? Why not let Canadians have the government they want? Since when is being better at suffering good?

I hope Canada shuts off the power flow.

e- Then Doug Ford can be to blame for deaths and high prices. He is the one who started this threat.

The Ford family is disgusting. Morbidly obese alcoholic cocaine addicts, yuck

This is the Toronto mayoral dynasty and it's bad.

Doug doesn't tell us that energy trading is a two-way street. We also sell electricity into Canada, and this trade is important for balancing the power grid.
