He wasn't even trying to win an argument or refute anything.

Also that's one link. He inserts race into "everything"?

I was only trying to refute the accusation that he was racist. That seemed pretty absurd.

Don't have anything to say about your position. I haven't spoken to him personally.

...why?

Observing that some races have historically enjoyed more or less privilege than others isn't racist either.

Meanwhile, people like this guy tried to pass it off as if we were afraid of the big bad colonialist telling us to trust him. It was fairly disgusting to read, because it was implied as if we're incapable of forming intelligent opinions without bringing identity politics into the picture.

Do you have a link? All I remember was a comment he made on Zuckerberg's post politely asking him to reconsider his approach and why it didn't work

FTA:

“At a broad level, it might be useful to really, really reckon with the history of western corporate powers enforcing their desires on a broad swath of the Indian population, especially India’s poorest,” he suggested. “There are things that India, Indians (and those of us in the diaspora) place a very high value on, for historical reasons, that should be obvious with some thought. A colonialist ‘Trust us, it’s for your own benefit’ pitch is a hard sell with good reason.

I can see how you reached your conclusion but I didn't end up there after reading the bit you quoted. I think there's a more charitable take on what he said.

Anil's statement was both sexist and racist as in, discriminating based on race and sex.

Its totally pointless and counter-productive, but hey, at least his followers will cheer.

This seems like putting a spin on things. Following a link in the article, you might want to read what Anil actually wrote (in particular, search for "Update"):
