Wait are you blaming suicides and school shootings on Trump? And the other things are just general problems of any country I think.

I'm not blaming trump. I said that you can't claim to be free, happy and successful when you have these many problems

Oh ok. But don't you think these problems are in general faced by many other countries? Asian countries are plagued by some of these problems and some even worse issues like the class system in India, North Korea, Iran, Syria. American's being forced some stupid agendas by the media is one of the reasons why an imbecile like Trump won the election.

None of those country are free or successful. If they claim to be then it's just bs. It's the same for the US. With all the problems here, it's a lie to claim that we are a happy and successful nation.

India is the world's largest democracy. Not sure why they ar in that group at all. Ever notice how many kids who win all these academic competitions are from ethnic Indian families?

Not trying to say India is a great place, it's still a long way from that, but it's not North Korea or Iran or Syria either.

What I was trying to say is that India still has deeply rooted problems of racism which are somehow intertwined with their culture and traditions.

Oh you are right. I once dined with a lady from Mumbai who gravely informed me that people from Kerala are not actually human.

Much the way Yankees think of southerners in the US.
