This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

A culture of harm and racism, that sorts people into class by lightness of skin, needs to be imposed over with discrimination of equal or greater measure. Tolerance for the intolerant is unacceptable. Maybe India doesn't see the necessity compared to countries with much more violent racial tensions, but it's a lesson that can be learned an easy way or a hard way.

Nonsense. You're just parroting catch phrases. Perceptions of beauty are not "intolerance".

I sincerely hope that future generations are less judgemental and ready to label those people they don't really understand.

Honestly, just observe other cultures without trying to assess whether they're good or bad. They just are the way they are.

If you believe something fucked up then people are gonna call you out on it. No exceptions. If anything you should be happy others are willing to discuss it with you rather than write you off as unsalvageable or incorrigible.

That’s called guilt and shame.

I know you are, but what am I?

On the flipside the assumption that your culture is the correct way is pretty xenophobic and racist in its own way.

Oh yeah and which culture is that?

I've done nothing but make logical arguments here while you deflect and project.
