The annoying behaviour and mindset I see in many Northeasterners
What is up with the whole innocent victim always oppressed narrative? Yeah, I know the centre is doing some manipulation and has done terrible human rights violations in history, but the way a number of our people approach the relationship is so pathetic, it's unworthy of watching. Genuinely thinking, what's the point of going on national tv every single year, complaining about "muh racism saar, you call me Chinese, gib me sympathy". Not saying you should be quiet about harrasment or be a pushover, but being such a whiny bug who constantly asks for sympathy as if the problem is only one-sided, will not make things better. If anything, it will make things worse because you will be seen as an easy and weak target and people hate you even more. The worst part about this is that Northeasterners are not the most tolerant ones when it comes to race. You know very well, the history of violence and ethnic clashes in the seven sisters and how our people tend to be hostile towards outsiders and often make fun of Indo-Aryans. Imagine getting your chats out where you mock the racial features of brown South Asians, are you going start a media anger campaign on that? The way Mainlanders have done for you everytime some Lowlife has called you "Chinese" or "Chinki". Will you start protests for Indics getting beaten up or being insulted by being called "Mayang" "Haring" "Dkhar"? It's literally illegal to use racial slurs against us but not for us to do that to them. So enough with the one-sided over-sensationalizing What you should be focused on, is official policies, like AFSPA, land transfers and cultural subversions where they make up nonsense claims about how some of our cultural aspects are actually part of them. Or social dynamics involved in how we are assimilated or marginalized. Talk from a position of reason and strength, don't bow down your head for sympathy-it will be crushed. I had to say this because I was tired of seeing so many of our people crying about why they are not seen as Indian and always stereotyping North Indians as racist and acting like we are always innocent.1
