um, whoever who wrote that marx's writings were "prejudiced against the indians" obviously didn't read the article that they cited, as it is clearly, from start to finish, an argument illustrating marx's ultimate decision that british colonialism in india was counterproductive, and that india should be independent (he even calls those indians who call for independence legitimate "revolutionaries"). so i will delete that part. OR, whoever who wants it there should probably modify it with something like "the writings of early marx indicated a hesitant sympathy for british colonialism in india, citing its tendency to modernize a supposedly "backwards" nation; this viewpoint however would rapidly change as marx developed his ideas on the development of capital (for which he is best known today), and accordingly adopted a stance radically opposed to british colonialism, and in favor of indian independence." (obviously thats really long, but i thought i'd explain it since whoever who made the claim in the first place is a moron who needs to read the articles he cites). http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1132/is_v35/ai_3070234/pg_9 there's the article, btw.
Title
This article should be called anti india sentiment its absurd calling it indophobia there are many anti india sentiments in south asian nations do not edit and use weasel words such as saying indians are the victims of racism it happens for a reason.
Delete this page
This is tripe. The only connection between racism against American Indians and those from Asia is that the words are related in the English language. Why not have a Wiki article about all peoples who are discrimiated against containing the letter "E"?
No one questions that racism exists. This article, being biased and poorly written, makes an entirely different statement, which is that anti-racism can be even more ignorant than the racism it criticizes. It embodies, in effect, the hysteria it purports to be neutral about.
Please don't call me a troll.
I believe that it is reasonable to expect a citation for claims that Indophobia has increased in the United States, that many Bangladeshis consider India a regional bully or that India is turning its back on its creation, or that Hindus and Bangladeshis are being prosecuted (did you mean persecuted?) in Bangladesh and India respectively.
I also find it unlikely that there is no anti-Indian sentiment in Sri Lanka or Nepal, and I find the complete deletion of those sections rather odd.
I believe these are reasonable positions, and while one may disagree with my arguments, I don't think it is appropriate to call me a troll.71.174.94.146 (talk) 04:32, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- See the Bangladesh section on Persecution of Hindus, as well as reports from Amnesty International on this topic. Plus, I doubt that there is any overt or systemic Indophobia in Sri Lanka, given that the LTTE depends on Indian Tamils for funding, and the Buddhist fanatics in the Sinhala Regime view India as "the holy land of Buddha" or whatever. Certainly, it is obvious that there is anti-Tamil racism and genocide from the Sinhala Buddhists, and likewise anti-Buddhist sentiments from the Sinhala Tamils, but none of them are germane to this article, and can be mentioned on Sri Lanka civil war articles. On an anecdotal note, most of the Sri lankans I have personally met are pro-India in some way or form, given that both the warring tribes down there are trying to suck up to Indians for support. 11:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ghanadar galpa (talk • contribs)
