The funny thing is that the far-right loved the Sikhs before this happened because a) It made them look less racist, and b) Sikhs hate Muslims too.
Was always sad to see the Sikh community standing with the likes of Farage, Lowe and Tommy 'ten names', when we all know that they'd be taking their shower along with the Muslims, Hindus and all the rest if this lot really got to do whatever they wanted.
This site has truly been a learning experience for me in the xenophobic prejudices and hatred held by some against Indian immigrants. As a hard working model minority that are the most affluent and hardly known for crime, I wouldn’t have believed that people could hold such racist sentiments against them, especially in America, but they clearly do. There are a number of threads with posts to that effect on here. Thanks LR for opening my eyes!
Most on the right here in the US love Indians because they are hard working, rarely involved in crime and assimilate into society making them a net positive. Contrary to what many on the left want you to believe, the color of ones skin is not the cause of concern from most on the right. Obviously you have far right and far left that are completely nuts but most on the right are not concerned with all of the identity bs. We just want people that love our country and get what it means to be a citizen of this great country. Skin color is not an issue at all. Immigrant status (legal or illegal), what you bring to our country to make it better matter. And assimilation into the melting pot matters. The media and fake academia want us to believe that we are the democrats from 1880. Not even close.

While the left pretends they weren't the party of slavery and that brown and black people aren't smart enough to get an I.D. to vote.
Imagine being so dumb to think that the Democrats were always associated with left-wing politics. You would think that a person might be embarrassed to be so publicly ignorant, but alas...

Cool. I never realized “the media” was a single entity and that they all gathered in a room to contrive that master plan. And which portion of academia is “fake,” and how did they get in on this outstanding master plan?
I don’t see many of the “most” among you (maybe even any) taking pains to shout down the fool(s) on different threads here who trot out IQ estimates for the population of India as a whole, as well as for other countries with a high number of impoverished inhabitants, then apply that number uniformly (or at least as an average expectation) to American immigrants from those countries — a point that is almost unbelievably stupid and incredibly bigoted, but even more stupid than bigoted (not least, because so many of the “model minority) tend to be well-educated, intelligent, and hard-working).

The right ended slavery. Republicans have never been left wing.

Talk about dumb.
“The right”: ok. Look at “radical Republicans” vs those more likely to be called “conservatives” within the party at the time slavery ended, and tell me which one was the strong voice for ending slavery, and which had to be carried kicking and screaming into it?
And wasn’t Stephen Douglas a big “states’ right” guy of the century?

I don't even see many of the "far-right" expressing hatred of Sikhs over this. The issue is the behaviour of the police. Surely even you can put aside your virtue signalling "superior to the gammon" act and see the inhumanity of the police handcuffing and mocking a teenager dying in his own blood because they automatically believed an accusation of racism?

This must be why the right are the ones who hold up and venerate the the heroes of the confederacy these days.... because they "ended slavery"... No?

Democrats, the party of slavery and still believe dark skinned people are too dumb to get an I.D. to vote.
