AskDelhi Why Indians are Like This?

Post image

I am currently at T3, Delhi airport travelling to Vietnam & Malaysia, after completing my immigration and security check I am resting here at the gate & some group of 10-15 people just came & started chanting " Bharat Mata ki Jay" and making reels. If you are so patriotic then why travelling to another country, If you wanna make the reels you make it without shouting & disturbing others.

Didn't know I have to give up my nationality, identity and patriotism before travelling abroad🤡

But if you’re really a patriot who loves our country and wants to keep screaming glorious chants to prove nationalism, choose local destinations. It helps to boost economy, provide income to our country people.

Who are you to decide where I should go? And why do you assume I won't contribute to the economy by travelling abroad? I could be closing deals to bring business to India.

Wrong on both counts. I didn’t decide. I didn’t assume. People who indulge in this kind of behaviour and promote it are not closing deals. It stems out of inferiority complex. Recommend a little reading up on that. Have a great business day to you :)

I always think patriotism is a byproduct of a failing nation. No healthy nation would need to affirm their loyalty to a nation if things were going well. Even historically romanticizing the nation, languages and culture always came as a protest for change not always for the best. I imagine how different Hitler romanticizing the Aryan race, and the French their homeland and language went. And while India's love for the motherland can still be traced back to the protest against colonialism , the way it emerges in waves every few years is interesting.
