Here is my 2 cents on the circus of US elections: Kamala Harris is not Indian American, she is a South Asian American.

About Biden vs. Trump, it’s a battle between Methadone and Viagra. One of them numbs your brain dead. The other tries to wake up what is (and ought to be) numb.
On the ridiculousness of the phrase “South Asia”: “Americans” call themselves with a name which denotes not just one, but two continents, but insist on calling an ancient civilization as if it is some province of their global empire, stripping all of its history and identity. 😏
Historically, it is not only the whole of the Indian subcontinent (suck on that phrase, idiots!) was called “India”, but even “south east Asia” was called “India Extra Gangem” (India beyond the Ganges).

There was no “South Asia”.

All of Europe’s global naval expeditions were to reach India. Not “South Asia”. “America” wouldn’t exist if not for “India”. There was never a “South Asia” except in the vision of Neo Imperialists.

Indians who want to erase themselves into a brown smudge called “South Asia”, 🖕!
For any other ethnicity, this type of racist scam to erase their identity would be called out immediately. For the dumber than dodo Indian-American community, this is now academically entrenched dogma.
