So , if any of you live in western countries like I do, you know how much hard time it is to have if you go by indian . If any of you are like me, you tell people you are Panjabi NOT Indian and if they ask where that is , tell them to look it up. Indian men are looked upon as creeps , then you got those SH ITTING STREETS jokes or POO IN LOO jokes ... It never ends , and many Indians who fit the indian sterotype of looking weak and ugly do get bullied , it happens to some Punjabis as well. Don't even try tinder if you write " indian " in the race / Ethnic colum . You won't get a match . The point is , India's image needs changing , it's happening slowly and will take time until it's a developed country and with the internet what it is today , a country / people or certain groups would get chastised greatly. I mean countries like China have their image under control, even though Asians / Orientals are mocked for " small wee wee , funny names " stereotypes , countries like China , Korea have overcome this by being developed . India has a long way to go before people stop saying horrible things. My point is , if you're in the west , you're not " Indian / Paki " , you're Panjabi , Kashmiri , Rajput and other prideful titles you give yourself as to not be mocked for being Indian. That had me thinking , why is the Indian flag so UGLY ? Orange, white & GREEEEN ? WHY ? <banned word filter activated> . No indian sports team even use green as a primary or secondary color . It's Always Blue , and the only thing blue on the flag is that middle circle . On that note, Green doesn't even mesh well with the other three colors on the flag . So I figured , maybe they make the whole flag Saffron background , and in the middle they put in all the Indian religion symbols in Blue , You would've have the Swastika for the buddisht, Khanda for the Sikhs and a hindu symbol [ I don't know any ] . Kinda like the Nishan Sahib , which is always either a blue or orange back ground and blue or yellow or orange Khanda in the middle . As for the name Indian , it was given by the invaders from arabia , maybe change it to something ancient like Aryavata , idk . That was another pointless post for the LOLZ.
