Again, “your people” doesn’t really apply when it isn’t a political issue, does it? People who see it as “gross” are just ignorant to foreign cuisine. Stop making it about republicans vs democrats.

@5 and @OP since apparently it takes a few times to understand this: one person’s actions does not define every person in that group.

Op is literally making the point that every republican is that way. Read above.

I get why that rep’s comment upset you-it was ignorant and offensive. But I don't think it's fair to say every Republican thinks that way just because one person said it. Every party has people who say dumb or extreme things, but that doesn't mean they speak for everyone in the group. It's better to judge individuals based on what they believe and say, not assume guilt by association.

Let’s look at your logic from another perspective. Asif Ali Zardari is the leader of Pakistan and very corrupt (1st hand from Pakistani friend). So do you think every Pakistani is also corrupt because their leader is? “It’s not unfair or an exaggeration to call that out because they are quite literally the face of the party lol”.

-2

Fair point. I should have clarified I meant the people that voted for him. Often, people vote for people based on promises made by a single person (like many did for Trump). I will say, regardless of who we vote for in the US, there will be things they say, do, or promote that doesn’t 100% fit with every person in that group. That’s what I’m trying to get at.

not every republican behaves like this, but for some reason 95% of people who do are republican, and many in charge of our government

This somewhat aligns with my point. What I’m gathering from this post is that Gill’s opinion on how to eat food is being applied to the entirety of republicans (and geographically, Texans) which just isn’t true and is comparable to generalizing all (geographically) Pakistani people as supporters of Zardari’s corruption.

that generalization comes from a history of republicans making similar statements. our president at one point was questioning Obama’s nationality and labeling him a muslim simply because of the color of his skin this racism isnt new

It’s clear none of you want to listen. I tried to be diplomatic but you dipshits can’t read. Also @OP I stopped talking to you many comments ago because your brain is smoother than baby’s bottom.

You’re the one pressed over someone’s culture 😂😂😂

I’ve already made the clarification that I meant generalizations of Pakistanis as a geographical group being similar to the generalizations of Texans.

Whose culture do you think I’m pressed over?

So we’re in agreement then. Unfortunately, many people do generalize Texans into one group. If they knew about Austin they wouldn’t. Anyhow thanks for the conversation, at least it was civil 😭

Indians. You wouldn’t be complaining or calling them toddlers if you didn’t care or weren’t racist.

The difference is that I don’t generalize democrats for offenses made by their representatives, because a representative was elected for a specific region and thus may accurately describe those people, but not across the nation. Trump doesn’t represent the ideology of all republicans. Biden doesn’t represent the ideology of all democrats. Also, for the last time, I’ve already corrected myself. I am not comparing ideology with ethnicity. I’m not going to keep repeating that dude, just read lmao.

Why would the left have a problem with him eating with his hands?? His wife is literally Indian. He can follow her culture if he wants. It’d be a problem if he condemns people for eating with their hands but then he does it himself. That’s hypocrisy. Brandon Gill’s wife is Indian as well. Him saying people should be deported for eating with their hands is being a hypocrite since people in his family literally do that. So they be deported too.
