Here is what I wrote in a post earlier: "This article is bullshit...how can Americans clamor about losing jobs to India if they believe India doesn't even have electricity (I don't believe anyone, even if American, can be naive enough to say that about any country in the world today)!! Americans in general know very little about any county other than their own. The author is lying and totally over-reacting." Some of the replies were along the lines that people think India is a poor country or that they generalize or that this poor image is due to the likes of Satyajit Ray (who is the most respected Indian filmmaker in the West BTW!!) and Mother Teresa (who was the most revered Indian of her time when alive!!), and someone even said Ameircans say "India ia a land of snakes and elephants." My answer is YES IT IS and I AM PROUD OF IT!! I am proud that my country allows habitat for all living creatures. What's bad about it? ONCE AGAIN, this article is PURE BULLSHIT!! What matters is what Indians think about themselves, thats what they take others to think about them, and BTW thats what Westerners take advantage of by not leaving any stone unturned to demoralize them!! Think about it again... nobody teases Chinese like "China is a land of pandas".

What is the relevance of this message in response to my message?? I didn't talk about superiority of races... BTW this "light-hearted" article has generated a lot of interest among people. It has become a hobby of Indians like you to let your nation being made a subject of fun and ridicule!! The author's sense (in case you didn't get it) is quite obvious. He is supposedly tired of being asked questions about his country. And he doesn't have the guts to reply to those questions and is writing the article in frustration. There is no mercy for people who can't defend their country even through words!
