TN

Why do people from TN act so insecure? They stick with ppl from TN, they show a lot of favoratism towards other TN ppl. I appreciate the amount of contribution TN ppl have made, but don't like their favoratism attitude.

i have replied to this query to another id... however, am posting the same here:


insecurity is in the minds of the majority of the indians.. this reflects in their poor choice of leaders, inability to understand the greater good, and the feeling of inferiority against the westerners...

this has naturally resulted in "group behaviour"... and this is not only unique to TN...

the order of hierarchy of some of the groups is as follows;

sub-sect > sect> caste > religion > language (regional) >national...

this is cunningly utilised by the politiians and the result is total chaos in governance... coz the politicians (who are the MLA/MP) simply cannot satisfy all the hierarchies and they find that they cannot satisfy all... so the best thing for them to do is to actually do nothing, but keep the hierarchy satisfied... whenever the balance seems skewed, there is a shift in party (to which, the politicians have another excuse - horsetrading and coalition politics!!!)...

so ultimately, people are fed up in confusion as to what is good for them and end up again to their basics - groupism!!!

I appreciate that atleast you have the guts and courtesy to understand that contribution on TN and its people to India and its society in terms of science, GDB, etc coz not lot many people have balls to admit.

With respect to your query, I would say compared to my other proud Indians, for example, Marathi Manus(thats what they call and if u r a north Indian then u know the case), Marvadis don't even speak if u r a different caste, punjabis they have their own circle, Gujrathis known for all introverts, Bangaluuuuuuuuraaaaans never know what they are doing( like bakris just do what other idiotic politicians say) and the list goes long if u still consider Bengalis, Indian muslims always favour Pakeees, etc when compared to this We(tamilians ) are least in the row and I feel ashamed of it. as I know the real scenario on these matters. We cannot even support the fellow tamilians in Srilanka, if u know the true fact the singhalese are the ruthless people in the world killing all children-worse than the arabs. I hope as a man (proud Indian) understand the reality - who is who.
