Afghanistan is a sinking ship (or at least it's already sunk into a cesspool ). I guess sacrifices have to be made. I have met some Afghan Sikhs and they are skilled traders and very business savvy. Some of them are quite educated and they are quite pragmatic. They will have to adapt but they will adapt very quickly (in the UK within 2 decades they have become quite wealthy )they do not rely on the Indian government. The first step is at least in India they got a chance to survive and they have to think what is best for the next generations.

Not all muslim cultures are the same. If they would prefer some safety and they want their cultural affinity they probably would better off in Iran (there is already a Sikh community there). Though I assert their preference is the west.

Pathans are known for being gay so I think they would be quite familiar with it.

There is an Afghan Sikh diaspora in the west. I think that their preference is a western country.

What with all the arab gayness over there!! The young boys are likely to get bummed - seriously.

Its comedy you never seen an Eddie Murphy Live, Richard pryar and Chris Rock etc etc, if you don't like it don't watch and even when you clicked the video, it Paul Chowdhry, he is known for cussing in Punjabi.

Whenever I do 2-3 Chandi di vaar paaths continuously, my spinal cord automatically gets straight, all my lethargy and sleepiness vanishes and I get confidence that I can easily complete all my daily tasks. Basically, it brings lots of charrdikala! Anyone had similar experience?

Surprised this has not sparked outrage already. Looks like an excuse to cut hair, they should just be honest. 'Virtue-signalling' also, I think https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/sikh-cousins-pledge-cut-hair-5556292#comments-wrapper Cousins pledge to cut their hair for children's cancer charity The pair felt compelled to help after learning about the impact of cancer on young people By Asha Patel 05:00, 22 JUN 2021 UPDATED15:44, 22 JUN 2021 Cousins from Leicester, Amara Basra, 10 and Kiran Thiara, 18 are having their long hair cut for charity. Although their religion teaches men and women to leave hair unshorn, they felt compelled to help children suffering from cancer. (Image: supplie 10-year-old girl from Leicester and her cousin, 18 will cut eight inches of their hair to donate to a children's cancer charity. Amara Basra and her cousin Kiran Thiara's religion teaches men and women who follow it not to cut their hair. But after learning about the impact of cancer two years ago, Amara felt compelled to help and inspired her cousin to join her. She committed to growing her hair for it to be donated to a charity that creates wigs for children suffering from cancer after watching the Channel 4 programme, Stand Up to Cancer. "The show shared a story about a child who was losing her hair while they were being treated for cancer and it had a feature about the Little Princess Trust," mum, Hardeep said. "Amara asked me if we can donate and of course, I said yes." Coming from a Sikh background, Hardeep, from Hamilton, said it was an especially big "sacrifice" that her daughter and niece were prepared to make to help others. "What is also important is that the hair is authentic, especially for ethnic minority children who have cancer," the 42-year-old said. Speaking to LeicestershireLive about her decision, Amara said: "I just wanted to do something nice. "My hair has gotten quite knotty at times and my mum washes my hair so I feel quite bad for her." Amara felt compelled to help when she learned about the devastating impact of cancer and decided she would donate eight inches of her hair. (Image: Hardeep Basra) Amara and Kiran started a crowdfunding campaign which was set up by Hardeep, to raise money for the charity as well as donating their locks. After surpassing an initial target of £750, Hardeep increased the goal to £1,500. But the cousins have now raised £1,900. "To be honest, I wasn't expected to raise this much and I'm just so thankful," Amara said.

not all jatts are alike , look at Brar and Sant ji polar opposites , my folks and your average desi wannabe jatt here in diaspora . You can take the good aspects of your sikh panjabi culture and history without sweeping in foreign trash like maa bhain gaalan etc , we are supposed to respect our women not drag their good names through the mud for point scoring in P'ing contest

maybe I was lucky because my nanake and nani's folks were gursikhs who didn't feel the need to prove their manliness because they were already physically, emotionallly and spiritually set up.

Afghanistan is quite a fractured society and it's location will always be lucrative to different parties. It will never be left alone. But you are correct that all Sikhs should leave. I think there are only a couple of thousand Sikhs left in Afghanistan. One of my observations with Afghan Sikhs is that they seem more comfortable interacting with Muslims than non Muslims and it kind of makes sense since they have lived in a muslim majority area for centuries. I wonder how much of a culture shock it is for them to interact with non Muslims in such large numbers particularly if it is a non Muslim country.

Who knows, if people leave it alone for long enough, maybe the place will ease up? But definitely all Sikhs should leave it and come to India or elsewhere (i.e. a nonsullah country).

Fateh!

it makes them look like total buffoons with neanderthals traits akimbo for all to see . Like they lack of vocab leads to purulent verbal diarrhoea like that . it's very comical that describing people's mothers and sisters that disgusting way is considered manly as many a bebe has said - dhur fitte muh

yeah well Richard Pryor was brought up in a brothel so he had a miserable upbringing experiencing the toxicity of human on the daily , that is why he had a stammer , because of the violence he witnessed , his swearing was his defence mechanism . Most of these guys learned to be macho men by mouthing off and deflecting violence by wisecracking. Paul has no real reason to and it does not help his act as by he's said a gaal five times it isn't worth listening to his ish . he's had the same act for years 70% swearing 30% possible joke/message.

Just an excuse to cut their hair. No one should be compelled for it. Old rahits specifically say kesh is an outward symbol of inward belief. If you don't have the inward conviction, what's the point?

Whether you like it or not, that's what commonly goes on. And before you go on all high and mighty, I know many females, when out of the men's ear shots will talk some serious filth too. I grew up single parent with a mother, so I probably grew up like you, not hearing swearing, but once I turned a teenager and went into the working world, I soon woke up to reality. This is what rural Panjabis are like, most especially Juts. There is A LOT of swearing and the convo is more likley to be about 'bhunds' than rainbows and unicorns for some reason....... I remember being an impressionable 15 year old, coming back from work, and (like you'd expect) mimicking the olders I'd been working with at home with the language, including swearing like them. Then my mother turning around to me and saying words to the effect of: "Now you've worked with them for a few months, you're talking like a typical Jut!" You're probably not wrong. That's probably what makes it so hilarious and entertaining? I'm not encouraging it, just telling it like it is. PS - I think blokes doing bhangra with the full colourful get up, including long skirts and Cheshire cat grins, makes them look a thousand times more buffonish than this.

Identify anxiety triggers to start with. There might be a long term problem/frustration she's had that she's been bottling up and it is manifesting this way?

Why do you feel ashamed about wasp actions? To many of them you're just a foreigner or p@ki anyway? Plus I feel more ashamed of a lot of what my own Panjabi Sikhs get up to, than any outsiders.

Let's keep it real. It's a usually a particular type of 'Sikh' that signs up for these things. Even join the pols when they are mass murdering civilians. People should own their own flaws, and not try and deflect it as a 'Sikh' problem. I think it's mainly a Jut problem.

Majhails with their big mouth bravado.

Just saw a bit of the video. I'm confused. The guy looked like a mona in the first place?

Last year this guy was posting about black people in a similar vein. This year he seems to have realised that whites can be racist. I think he's a bit slow?

And in case you haven't noticed by now, if this doesn't let you know that Juts have completely lost the plot, then nothing will.

In terms of our nonSikh heritage backgrounds, honestly acknowledge its strengths and weaknesses, and why Guru ji's societal vision is far greater and more powerful than any that comes from our previous nonSikh heritage. There is a greater power and strength in Guru ji's vision of Sikh social order than any of our cultural heritage possesses. In terms of the panth, it's usually following the family biraderi system than weakens us as a whole, and creates deep weakening fissures. These are so obvious that inimical people have been exploiting them for centuries. Changing deeply rooted conventions is never easy, that's why we need to create and defend space away from them. If we have rampant sociopathy, whether this is genetic or the result of a perpetual state of 'survival mode' due to historic experiences. We need to acknowledge this squarely, and work around it until we have a strong critical mass that can challenge and change accepted norms. To start with we need to be able to honestly discuss these things.

It's significant that these under resourced people took on and defeated the much wealthier and better trained apex western powers. Plus people concerned about the nishaan sahib being removed should worry about what Sikhs there will face now. It's a shame that the Indian government don't give these people proper papers, it's even a bigger shame that in this day and age, these refugee Sikhs can't even rely on a warm and hospitable welcome from their Panjabi Sikh brethren.

This was obviously coming.

Ok, I take that back. But these lot obviously have the will to keep fighting.

Takes an old school geezer to say things out straight! lol

Have you seen him?

His families from Rawalpindi (prepartition) that's probably why you feel that way. Before I knew this, I always thought he was taking the piss out of sullah accent Panjabi, but it's (now) obvious that he speaks a Potohari dialect. As for the swearing, it's important for guys like me, because believe it or not, that's how lots of Panjabi men used to speak (when out of earshot of the women), so it has that nostalgic, comical effect.

Well maybe you need to realise you are in a minority in your culture? That has jettisoned a big part of your culture (for the better I'm sure). But being in denial of the truth doesn't help. Plus, it's just cultural norms. It's not my culture, so don't shoot the messenger please. Plus you are likely to end up doing what my moms did, and have sons that are unprepared for real life with Panjabis, if they ever experience it. Luckily, I got caught up quick when relatively young.

I'm glad someone has kept that old school vibe alive myself. Love Paul man.

Premi5 You're a comedian. Juts pretty much monopolised the Off License alcohol cigarette trade in the South East in the 80s and 90s. Plus you sound like closeted white boy's kooti anyways. What would you know? Most of the Panjabi pubs in my ends are owned by Juts. They seem to have progressed from Off Licenses.

Some of them are cringe worthy. Like Bhaskar. Kulwinder Ghir was a pioneer. Syal is blatantly an antiSikh commie HP, but she did open doors for others like Ghir. Canada seems to produce a lot of funny comedians like Jus Reign, and that other guy I've been posting recently. Lilly 'Singh' Superwomen is just a cooning broad now though she started off satirical. Now everyone's sick of her, including her gora/gori fan base.

Not at all. I don't think you have the savvy to clock what he's doing myself. The swearing is a satire of Panjabis.

Bully you??? You pu55y. This is online. And you're a grown up. That's another pile of nonsense. The amount of tarkhans from Africa is marginal compared to the overall numbers. I've met as many if not more juts from Africa than tarkhans over the years. And they have that stereotypical starched pagh thing going on. I remember playing at my jut pal's house when growing up and we'd be trying on the starched pagh he's dad left on the shelf. Juts and alcohol have a long standing relationship with predates Sikhi by the looks of it.

It wasn't bollywood that promoted this stereotype. Our own lot were full on complicit with it. That's where you keep showing some mental shyte. You're (like me) old enough to remember the 80s/90s. Hordes of our lot defined themselves by that balle balle peasant shyte. Look at Candian juts, they still do! Plus the stereotype of angreezis of Sikhs was the opposite to what you are saying. Loyal, docile, teetotal fudhus, who'd take 'amrit' based around giving loyalty to some morbidly obese english maharani. Panjabi blokes swear big time. That's fact. It's not like I made this rule up myself. But please don't insult my intelligence and try and deny my (and many others) experience of decades of mixing/working with my own people. I can deal with reality. Try it yourself.

What, and you ain't grown up with rural Panjabis and see where he gets that caricature from?

Warning: A little bit of Panjabi swearing.
