Calling out societal problems is not racism. Indians calling out police violence in the US wouldn't be racism either.

Thank you. I have precisely zero negative feelings towards indians. Incidentally in a previous comment i criticised what i perceive as wests’ declining freedoms. We should he allowed to discuss such topics without being slandered as racist.

Calling out societal problems is not racism, but using that pretext to undermine a whole country when you don't even have a tiny bit of idea on what the ground situation is, it's definitely racist.

It would have been racist if i said anything about indians. But i appreciate the attempt at projecting racism on me instead of focusing on india’s racism towards the lower castes. I wouldnt in good faith and conscience buy a product made by exploiting those people. Countries can be criticised, nothing racist in that.

That prejudice in your comment towards India, also you seem more than okay consuming products made by a country that has a large section of it's minority population in correction camps, Countries can be criticised if you're objective in that, here you're not only biased but actively undermining a country based on your prejudice.

That's the whole point, we're not okay consuming products made by these types of countries, that's why there is an effort to move production elsewhere. This thread is discussing why the alternative may be better but not good overall.

Your racism shows in your tone deaf comments. Give me a first world country name, and I will give you links to the same behaviour of the said country vs India.
