    It’s about the way it’s phrased. If you imply that the cause of their incompetence is the fact that they are Indian, well yeah that’s racist.

      I don’t agree, obviously. If I speak of my experiences in life, it’s not racist to mention that I had bad experiences with certain countries.

      But let me ask you a question. How should he have phrased it? He should have left out the Indian part completely? So no information about the Indian part is spread on social media? That would be an improvement?

      If so, I wonder what else we should leave out when we talk about people. Should we mention age, gender, hair color, length, weight? Or nothing at all.
