So basically think long term don't let little things bother you. You'll enjoy your life. Long term goal - living with parents or in-laws, kids education in good/international schools, easy access to healthcare, overall things are cheaper compared to US/ you get help if you want/ more services n professional help. Write down what are your Short term goals : maybe find friends/ social circle, access to groceries, library, parks, at times free activities.

Will never go back to a country which respects Narayan Murthy who pays 2 dollar per hour salary for engineers sucking 98 dollars as commission in between. On top of that he demands 70 hours work week when paying only for 40 hours. As long as such chronic capitalists are given a free hand, hard working middle class will end up dying on the streets with peanut salaries. My cousin in law who passed away with a cardiac arrest at 33 was not even reimbursed for death certificate cost of 10 dollars by Infosys. HR said they are not in the business of transporting dead bodies back to India. Not to mention both of Murthy's kids quit India long back and are not returning even when Mr. Murthy is 78 and showing all signs of dementia.

Because this is very clear in how they are talking. Last ten years in India has been hell for Muslims and Dalits and democracy in general. These guys live in lalaland. Of course why should they be involved in politics you will ask. But that is why India has been turned into a nightmare where only upper castes now have the life they want which is to get minorities screwed and dalits humiliated. How can you not mention the fact that India's culture and food has been turned Majoritarian by constantly gutting the constitution. These are typical of the people who would have said lets not speak against Hitler because that is politics and it does not matter what he does to the Jewish people becasue thats politics. Lets just eat our sambar and make sure that the kid gets a quality education. Life is just an idily away from Happiness. Pathetic upper caste insularity.

Ok so let’s discuss this. Muslims and Dalits lives have gotten worse? Muslims Haj is cheaper, monopoly of vendors is removed from haj products, instant theen talak has been removed. More reservation has been brought in for backward classes, by digitizing direct payments are made to the downtrodden removing corruption, toilets have been made across the country etc. the only people not directly befitting are upper caste Hindus but when infrastructure is built all are benefited so they are also befitted. India is racing towards becoming 3rd biggest economy. Gadgari ji has done a fantastic job with infrastructure. So other than the ones who want to see India fail everyone has benefitted. You are spewing castist venom but aren’t we all supposed to remove caste discrimination? If you don’t adjust your mindset only you will suffer.
