sucks to be a loser

Well if we talk about merit and as I'm a student. It affected me in JEE exam

My percentile was 89 but still I wasn't selected but an ST guy with 55%ile got selected. BUT HEYY!! I am the loser

I don't wanna argue here about it man. I can't change someone's opinion

That's what I used to think before. But now when I'm in the age where I have to compete, I see everyone getting what I deserve (seats in universities) just because I'm a i) general category (the ones without any affirmative actions), ii) male, iii) middle/upper middle class.

You know who bad does that feel? It's not a first world country where I can choose a mid profession and expect to go for vacations abroad.. NO!!. In these countries there is blood bath in competitions, in which I would say I was just good but unlucky too because of those three things

For equality to exist in India, the govt has to cut the freebies and make the education system better and teach civic sense to the country people.

In this country, I have to pay 30% tax and I don't get shit. That's the worst part, on top of that you'll be generalized as a bad guy everywhere because of the media. The govt isn't making laws gender neutral due to which the younger generation are scared to marry.

There are thousands of problems in this country. Giving out freebies and affirmative actions won't help at all

I know it's a mixed side. But I'm definitely not a fascist nor do I support fascism

So you understand that desperate people would do anything, so why not help them?

I don't know if you don't understand the situation but in india shit is complex. There have been interviews of people living in slums, they say they are making more children to get a little more money from the govt (from the scheme which was made for educational purposes of lower income households), some of them are regularly caught to be begging instead of doing some work (specially the ones who are fully fit and fine).

You know why it's like that? Because most of them got the bread and circus and they don't want anything more.

The govt doesn't even care about the poor and handicapped people tbh, because they get less seats from the affirmative actions. The so called oppressed groups "STs/SCs" get it.

Recently I gave an exam, the cutoff for general category is 94%ile but for ST it is 49%ile. Just look at the difference

That's why affirmative actions should be income based only for the ones who are in the BPL (below poverty line) list

What's caste blind social security system?

There should income based affirmative actions, for the ones who comes in BPL (below poverty line) list and for the specially abled people

If more than half a century of affirmative actions wasn't able to give jobs to certain communities, then it's a skill issue not a society issue

Casteism doesn't exists except in some villages, left extremists would say otherwise

See that's what

But people in this comment section already thought I would be a fascist

Check my other comment in this comment thread and tell me if I'm wrong

Stop hating and check my other comment

I'm from india so I can tell my perspective only for my country

I want

1. the affirmative actions to be removed,
2. laws to be made gender neutral,
3. freebies to be removed (which is given to the uneducated low earning people because they are the votebank),
4. to increase the funds in higher education govt institutions,
5. DEI should be removed from job hirings,
6. and there should be a test for civic sense for the ones who are applying for passport in india

When I say I'm a centrist that means for some stuff I'm liberal and for other I'm conservative

Centrist isn't someone who is not into politics. They classify themselves as "non politicals"

You got the difference?

Well I don't deserve 6 downvotes 💢

Yeah. But I can't create communities now because my account is new so I gotta wait

Y'all are making communities for town tho? Man, i can't even find an active community of my country 😂

I always answer politely unless the other person fcs around

Still you'll targetted everywhere id you're a centrist. Just look at the down votes😂

I never really liked the twitter like apps, at this point I'm even banned from X where people literally say any shit which comes to their mind

I'm searching for a reddit like forum and till now Lemmy is the one which I have got

I'm a centrist. Am I allowed anywhere in this cruel world?

Edit- What's the downvotes for?

Yeah you're right.

Fediverse is a great step forward. But it really creates echo chambers, even more so than on Reddit I feel.

But the difference is that you can create your own instances too if you don't like their ideologies. Or even make your community. So it's slightly better

Btw have you gotten any better alternative of Reddit?

Bro I am using Lemmy for the same reason. And honestly here people won't understand your concerns either

I was IP banned in reddit for saying that gender neutral laws should be implemented in my country. And here I'm banned in a community for saying communism won't save my country.

There is no difference as such between these two platforms. The only good thing about reddit is that it had more relevant subs and users

What do you want to see, that you haven't found on Fedi?

For me it's mostly the regional subs I had in reddit, those aren't here. And I also wanted Lemmy to some communities like which are relevant to my studies and work

I have started to like Lemmy too. I made an account here because I was IP banned in reddit for expressing my opinion on gender neutral laws in my country

That's the worst part of reddit. You can't say something which go against their ideologies. Although I still want my reddit account back because fediverse isn't popular in my country and there aren't much relevant subs for me in here

I would believe what I read everyday. But if the random trustworthy guy can give me some other alternative, I could just research about it

Thanks for the comments man!!
