Three people who are steering highly influential mega corporations.
Piss off.
You know what, I just had a great idea... Why don't we try to actually make this at least somewhat scientific.
Let's compile a list of the worst "most evil" corporations on the planet. Your Nestles, your Amazons, your Down Chemicals, your Union Carbides, your Godman Sachs, your Blackwaters, etc. etc. and break down their C-Suite employees by ethnicity.
Let's see how unique this concept of greed is to Indians. I would bet my next paycheck that at the very least it would be a white plurality.
Do you have any concept of how statistics works? It's interesting (I mean, maybe but probably not really) that you can name a few greedy Indian tech execs, and act like this is some sort of nationwide or worldwide trend. As if your ability to name three people somehow negates centuries of history of the planet (including India, "your land") being ravaged by white people for profit at the expense of native populations.
If you think your ability to name three people is somehow meaningful, why don't we just take a few minutes on LinkedIn to see who's running these massive US corporations. If you want to make this a racial thing, let's see how many of them are old white dudes. Let's see how many of them ARE LITERALLY RUNNING THE SAME CORPORATIONS YOU REFER TO. But they've got one Indian dude in their C-Suite, and for you that's a smoking gun that this is a problem with their race right?
Brain broken. Taking you at your word that you're actually Indian (and that this isn't some overflow from some ethno-religious, Hindu vs. Muslim bullshit), it's pretty fucking sad that your mind seems to work this way. Talk about self-loathing.
