Are you trying to say that the remains of a feudal class structure are the same thing as a method overtly used by a modern government to take data? :skip:

apples and oranges. they should just have them fill in bubbles, like the USs.

Im just asking your opinion. In cape verde these issues are negligible. Cape Verde isnt like Brazil where black people cant get an education and isnt like India where you can be born into a nightmare you can never escape. If anything their issue is poverty from only having 500 thousand people and a 2 billion GDP. Its still a developing nation, a rising one and in time i think the issues you're talking about will fade and if not i dont think it will matter because people CV is so mixed most people get along with one another.

India, a country with billions of people and nucl#@r weapons is a lot more developed and is still run as a nigthmare for many people born into poverty. I think time will fair better for the poverty stricken in Cape Verde than it will India. No disrespect.

No he's right and you know it. India is one of the most fukked up racist caste systems in the world and most indians are to ashamed or dense to acknowledge it.

That house is made of playing cards. :dead:

im not in a glass house, my family hasnt been in india for generations now and even my grandparents marriages were mixed caste on both sides. i was commenting on it simply as a method of actually gaining ethnic data, nothing else. i dont care about the rest. the subsequent tiering of these 'color grades' is just another manifestation of western standards of beauty, bit of a played out thing to feign outrage about at this point.

I mean we can go back and forth criticizing insanity in one anothers cultures but its pointless because the world is insane. You say that CV's should be like Americans but how do you feel about Arranged Marriages. You know, not even having a choice of who you want to marry. I dont see anything wrong with it, but alot of Americans do. Should it be abolished and should indians view marriage and relationship the way Americans do?

so when was the last time you commented or criticized the situation then? Because you and your crew seem quite excited to criticize another nation for the same disease you and your people suffer from. I'll be awaiting a thread on the fukked up caste system in india from you shortly.

A :troll: outraged by trolling. :sitdown:

This isnt a forum for trolling. Please be more cautious careful and mature when you create threads in KTL in the future. We dont have time for your pathetic vendettas. I dont think Indians are supposed to act like this.
