Yeah, like, you're never gonna see American factory workers lynch a factory manager or douse him with gasoline and burn him to death lol

You did, maybe 150 years ago.

When I read about the factory workers who torched a Hero executive for loving with their vacation time, it makes me smile

Three CNN staffers have resigned following the publication and subsequent retraction of a story linking a Trump transition team member to the Russia-related investigations.

The piece, published late last week, cited an anonymous source saying the Senate Intelligence Committee was looking into the chief executive of a $10-billion Russian investment fund who met with financier Anthony Scaramucci before the inauguration. The report also said that two Democratic senators wanted to know whether Scaramucci had indicated in the meeting whether sanctions against Russia would be lifted, a decision that could impact the investment fund.

It's class-based

Indians who speak English fluently are about 7% of the country, who are concentrated in the upper class

When they come here, they bring their caste issues and class issues with them.

You can't dismiss racism, but when I have people I work with who are from India proudly talking about how the poor should die in the gutter, people are going to react negatively to that.

One of my direct reports is an Arab working in Chennai who I know is a Muslim due to his name and the holidays he takes off, but he won't say it or even name the holidays he takes off. I can't imagine how many classes he went through that were about "hide your poo poo to Americans." Shameful

Well, yeah Muslims in India are largely marginalized and have to take the poo poo jobs. I'm sure the BJP Youth crazies don't take too kindly to the slaughtering of cows and whatnot.
