I dont understand your kind. You generalize too much based on paranoid facts. But when specifically questioned about the reason for such paranoia, all you can come up with is the SRRR (Standard Redneck Rhetorical Response) “why did you come here if you like your own culture.. get out of my country because you still eat rice and curry and not 500 calorie fat-greased sausages.”
When faced with legitimately debatable questions you chose to resort to such cowardice.
You think that just because we live in US, we should simply not respond when your ilk starts abusing our culture and people ?
The reason why people like USA in India and why they overwhelmingly prefer USA to any other country to live or work is because they dont know it had people like you.
Thankfully, you are just a irritatingly small minority of nuisance mongerers who dont know whom they are fighting against based on half-knowledge about foreign cultures.
Its another thing that in modern times Indian culture has become a lot more americanized. When we made such drastic changes to our own society, why cant you atleast let people live when they dont want to interfere with your life ?
Indian culture to me is about food (eating rice, curry,dal), clothing style (my mom still wears saree.. she is over 60 years old and finds wearing skirts at her age ridiculous), watching bollywood movies and freedom to speak in my native language in public with people I know.
Tell me how am I hurting you and your “glorious” WASP culture by being myself ?
Assimilation of first generation immigrants is meaningless until you show that your country and culture is not hateful of them and their culture. You cant force greasy sausages down the throat of every immigrant, make old Indian women into skirts, etc. Thats un-American anyway.
Forced assimilation is impossible as well. You just cant help it when some foreign group comes here and makes a lot of attempt to fit in and is only met with derision about their native culture. Thats extremely thoughtless and insulting to the people.
Something that only rich, old snobs like you are good at.
BTW, here are two links about White American reluctance to adopt African American babies :
Foreigners vie to adopt US black babies

Finally, your statement that White Americans dont prefer black babies because they are “illegitimate” is laughable.. do you mean that all white babies put up for adoption are 100% legitimate and thats why they are preferred ? cmon.. you claim to be an engineer.. how can you be so illogical.. Arent most white babies out there in the first place because they were born out of wedlock ? usually when they are teens ? what about the glorious high school mating ritual of “prom dance” ? White teens getting knocked up by their mostly white boy friends.. that is all “legitimate” huh. Interesting.
FYI, all this is extraneous to the OP’s topic, but you raised the issue of multi-culturalism, not me.
That’s brilliant, gardenia. DO YOU NOT SEE THE CONTRADICTION AND HYPOCRCISY BURIED IN THOSE TWO PHRASES?
Hint: “Your kind” “Generalize”
You are a bigot to the core, an Anglophobe, a bigot.
