@ebony_azure @resistanceenjoy Well Patels afaik arent very different from North Indian upper castes genetically.
And we have the entire country of Pakistan to show high steppe and Iran N doesnt translate to better outcomes.

@Bulbasaurus007 @resistanceenjoy Bro, they’re doing genetics-jeetery. They care about the share of steppe ancestry and Neolithic ancestry from Iran in your caste. Not the ritual status.
To determine where you stand in the racial hierarchy. Most Indians are sbuhuman to them. Some barely make the cut.
English
You cannot take geneticjeetry seriously when you know Reddys and Patels are not even the OG upper castes

Indian immigration to the US is one of the most well-engineered systems in our institutions ndian-Americans skew heavily toward upper castes — Brahmins, Kayasthas, Banias — with very few Dalits making it through. Among South Asian applicants to Columbia, Brahmins and South Indian Hindus average ~1500 SAT, significantly higher than East Asians.

@ai_appreciator @Nemtastic1 @RealDianeYap If they really cared about patients theyd have picked the more demanding life saving specialties rather than the ones with the best work life balance.
English
@Nemtastic1 @RealDianeYap Oddly enough, an Asian dermatologist who did MIT-Harvard Med-NYU-Oxford (PhD) just got fired from my local hospital a few months ago. Smart but did not care at all about patients.
English
This is why my doctor friend tells everyone who will listen: "Do not gamble with your life. You want an Asian doctor. Don't take risks with doctors of other races. Jewish is fine too."

@nytimes There's about a 15-point IQ gap (extrapolated from MCAT scores) between Asians enrolled in med schools and blacks enrolled in these institutions. The amount of preferential treatment of blacks and Hispanics in med school admissions is grotesque.
English
@RealDianeYap @Nemtastic1 What a waste of brain power. An LLM will replace her in 5 years.
English
@Nemtastic1 Derm is one of the highest IQ specialties too (excellent work life balance).

@Hoju89 @zagrebbi @avidseries Dravidian movement was led by the aristocratic Non Brahmin Tamil/Telugu castes who were tagged Shudra in Varna system
It was a Grift by them to reclaim power that had passed on to the Brahmin bureacray under British and was never about socially uplifting the down trodden castes
English
@Bulbasaurus007 @zagrebbi @avidseries That's quite possible. I just assumed it was a result of the Dravidian movement. Interestingly Hindu Malayalis are more likely to keep such titles / names.

English
@Hoju89 @zagrebbi @avidseries Yes. But if you notice it its largely absent among Sri Lankan Tamils and Mysoreans too.
I think it was never fashionable to begin with. No one enforced it.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 @zagrebbi @avidseries Interesting I thought it wasn't allowed given so few do it but I guess people follow the convention not out of legal prohibition but other reasons.
English
@Vajrasuci Most intelligent Dalit. Show which book says upper only means dwija. By the very nature of the word its a relative term.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 High caste means high in the Shuddar category.
It is not upper caste (Dwija).
English
@Vajrasuci I can be a dalit and my point still stands.
Buffalo herding/shepherding was not a low status thing. Cattle were a sign of wealth.
Its considered a Vaishya profession in all sacred Hindu texts and attested to by south indian emperors in medieval texts.
British records-
English
@Bulbasaurus007 Also, you are a Buffalo Gowda. Your cover is blown.
English
@Vajrasuci English themselves called them upper caste
Gowda isnt a caste specific title. The ones who use it commonly are Vokkaligas who are Sat Shudras.
Buffalo herding, Sheep herding Gowdas also exist like Gollas and Kurubas. They are not sat shudra.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 The Shuddar caste is meant to serve the Dwija. Therefore they cannot be called "upper". It is by inference since "upper" and "lower" are English words.
Secondly, you are a Buffalo herder Gowda from Karnataka. Not even a Sat Shuddar.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 @zagrebbi Most of the south indians there are telugus . Telugus utterly dominate SAT,bees these days .current spelling bee,geo bee, integration bee are all telugus
English
@Vajrasuci 🤣
In which book is it written the term "upper caste" was coined exclusively for dwijas?
English
@Bulbasaurus007 Ruling caste doesn't mean upper caste. You are Sat Shuddar. As clear as sky.

If this is accurate, then south Indian non-brahmin Hindus must score more than 1510 SAT average.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 You also shamelessly ignored the word he used "high caste Shudras". 😂
Which means (oh boy I am having to spell this out) that you are at the higher end of the Shuddar spectrum not the Caturvarna ITSELF.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 He mentioned it very clearly "what are now known as.."
He is not calling those castes upper. He is telling us what they have come to be called.
And this under the section of "Shudras" 😂
This is a misconception and falsehood that team Dwijilante is trying to undo.
English
@Vajrasuci No he doesnt. This is this book. Where?
archive.org/details/in.ern…
Also..
This is from Dalit
English
@Bulbasaurus007 Nope. He actually features you in the book - "who were the Shudras".
English
@Bulbasaurus007 We call them Dalindus for reason and in due time, we'll get them out of the Hindoo religion. Be patient, it takes time.
English
@Vajrasuci BHIM himself recognised the non Brahmin upper castes of South India in his books. Lmao.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 In BHIM constitution, all of that cow dung is invalid now. We go by the rule of law.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 So I want to enter a temple now because historically I wasn't allowed in a temple?
What logic is this, Shuddar?
English
@Vajrasuci Protect the integrity of Chaturvarna by removing yourself from public spaces then since you are untouchables and sharing that space means loss of caste for upper castes.
English
@Bulbasaurus007 I don't want to enter your filthy temple. I have my Viharas tyvm.
I am not trying to pull you down. I am trying to stop you from corrupting the Caturvarna. I don't care who it is, but I'll protect the integrity of Caturvarna till end times.
English
@Vajrasuci >What makes you think I want to enter a temple in rural south
It matters a lot since you get affirmative action based on this historical injustice.
Getting 35% marks and entering a University where dominant castes need to get 90% + is because of not being able to enter temple.
English
@Vajrasuci Mega cope. First earn the rights to enter a temple. Then you can determine who is upper who is not.
Twice born or not doesnt matter in the south because there is no twice born except Brahmin here.
You are trying to pull other castes down to feel better yourself. Won't work.
