The only videos/pictures I mainly see of India don’t explicitly try to show india in a negative light, but implicity do. Stuff like videos of people using their bare feet as tools to work on items, unsanitary restaurant conditions, etc.
I’ve never been to India (on my list), I love Indian people, their culture, and especially their food. Because of that, I’m relatively certain those videos are hand picked to go viral, but I don’t have anything real to compare it to (my own experience). But also, the disgust seems very manufactured, with frequent racist comments as well in those posts.
Has anybody else noticed this?
I would have expected what you’re saying to be true, but what I find interesting is I have seen less of the other stereotypes than of the Indian stereotypes. It’s a bit strange in my mind the inequality when you would expect them all be appear equally.
