Instead of listening to my experience you became condescending. This is why the left fails. Your attitude ruins the ability to cooperate and fix the real issues in society.
Please sahib, explain the customs of these exotic people of the Orient of which you are an expert. Regale us with tales of your service with the British Raj among the unenlightened Hindoos
Fuck sake nipper, as I said to the others. If you constantly snipe and cockey-judge nothing will change. Nobody will turn against capitalism and you’ll remain the fringe.
no I contributed my own relevant experience to the conversation. You say that Indians often casually call people sir. I have grown up in an area with a high proportion of Indian immigrants and known and worked with many both raised in the UK and recent immigrants and have not known them to call people sir. My point being is that it is clearly a more complicated cultural thing than you were saying
Tell you what next time I’m talking to an Indian I’ll ask about it as they should have a better idea of their own culture than we have
As an indian , born and living in india , I feel indians only use sir under subjugation , however sometimes its out of respect ( like calling a scientist or someone sir out of respect for their contributions)
I’ve also known many Indians and I have never heard one of them call anyone sir
Then you’re not very good as listening to people.
that’s a really stupid point to make obviously I listen to what people say and these people don’t call people sir

that actually sounds very similar to the British usage
So basically in the above post the person calling him sir clearly feels the person is superior to him !
I couldn’t begin to speculate on that as I don’t know anything about them or their relation with the Indians they know
