Credit is definitely due and this is an amazing feat by India.
I haven't bothered to discuss the other topic. Is there even any point when US issues are always on the front page here? I probably know more about US politics than my own country at this point.
Though of course you could also go there and take a jab at Americans. Let me know when you do so I can give you some support.
Exactly. Verdict issued yet you haven't still thought about it? You haven't bothered. Yet you've already decided that the government is responsible. Otherwise it wouldn't constitute a "whataboutism". There are many cases of "a Texas man doing this and a Florida man doing that" but nobody has blamed the government for these.
Whatever your reasons, that was whataboutism.
Expecting others to know what goes on in NASA discussions is moronic at best. That's not the topic we are in. You didn't even link it or reference it.
The Indian caste system is a humanitarian crisis. Would you rather westerners ignore it? There's just no winning then, is there?
So people haven't criticized NASA because they don't know what NASA does. Yet suddenly everyone, including you has opinions about India's space program. I thought NASA had a much bigger space program. And I am the moron to point out the double standard? This is exactly what I was talking about, the "holier than thou" attitude.
You haven't still answered how you think the Indian government is responsible for the caste system. Shouldn't that be resolved first? If you can't say if the claim itself is even true, how is it whataboutism?
