One of our expat desi acquaintances recently chimed on his Facebook page. His picture showed a predictable collection of desi dudes in a park in what used to be largely Caucasian community a decade ago.
His comment while intended to state the obvious was exactly opposite. Here he was a foreigner if that is even remotely logical a statement given the whole country is an immigrant haven. His perspective /ignorance later was unfortunately shared by a whole clan of semi witted sycophants that typically seem to laud any of his inane comments.
Facebook gives rise to a lot of this type of rambling being propagated at large with folks making silly comments that get broadcast and retweeted and approved or liked because people in general seem to not have anything better to do and use this digital platform in lieu of hanging out at a local nukkad chewing pan.
So this blog just proves the point.
