Thanks for your comment. I am an older black American trying to understand why people of color (even in my own) who have experienced white colonizing oppressions choose to continue to support it. Help me understand.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!!! Soooo he's going to "Make himself dictator for a day."?!?!?!? Are peoples brains even working anymore or is it some form of "idiot autopilot" thing???
"It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy. I love the Republic. The power you give me I will lay down when this crisis is abated."
I think people are tired of the duolopy system that claims to represent the American peoples suffering when it comes to economic issues. People are hungry for change at the top of the ticket. You have one of the candidates pledging to be an authoritarian leader. On the other side the only argument you hear is I'm here 5o fight for democracy but look the other way while I send billions in aid to a country whose committing ethnic cleansing. Joe Biden is a weak candidate. I never hear him talk about what he plans to do in his second term. There's no vision or passion there except to just stop Trump. Okay? Well, are you going to do for the American people besides send more money for wars rather than focusing on the issues here at home. If we hitch our wagons to Biden we are most likely headed to another term of President Trump. The cynics didn't believe us when we said it about Hillary
There's always someone who watches either too much news or not enough. Then you mix it up with not getting out much and that's the result you get is a crazy uncle nobody listens to.
For people who regard themselves as intellectually superior to others in our country, they have a deep lack of knowledge & common sense. They need to remember THE REASON why they &/or their families left, their countries of birth & came to the USA. All of us immigrants NEED to remember THE REASON.
What most non-Indians don't understand is the entire panel is made up of North Indians including 'Kal Penn'. The divide between North and South Indians is not well known outside of India. They all will be in support of the corrupt, clerk (worked in her father's shop and later became a politician by playing both sides), military contractor Namrata 'Nikki' Haley (North Indian origin) who used her position to become a multi-millionaire from being broke and 1 million in debt after she left the Trump administration. Now the establishment has this 'Nikki' puppet who they can 'control over the course of her political career. The Republican base has no interest in Namrata 'Nikki' Haley who is being pushed hard by the establishment with fake polls, just like they did for Hillary Clinton. On the other hand, Vivek Ramaswamy is of South Indian origin, intelligent, highly educated (Harvard and Yale grad), self-made billionaire/outsider who is unafraid to speak the truth and cannot be 'controlled' (just like Trump) by the establishment or mega donors. Kamala Harris is also of South Indian origin (her mother) but she is purposefully playing dumb and happy to live as another puppet of the establishment. This panel 'representing Indian-Americans' is laughable at best. Shows how the Demoret Party puppets in the media and entertainment industry have no grounding in reality.
1.4 billion Indians...trust me NOT all of them are very smart or articulate or well-reasoned. In the 1960, 70s, and 80s...ONLY the best of the best of emigrated to the U.S. So what we here in the U.S. were seeing is the strongest representation that India has. NOW with 3 decades of family based immigration you're seeing the rest of the curve.
@@victorpradha9946 not necessarily, the best of the best cleared the exams like Civil Services, UPSC and were sevings the nation at top positions. We are second or third in the line who were immigrated lol.
As an Indian American, the whole "model minority" stuff is something I drank a ton in highschool but grew out of in college. It's nothing more than a divisive term (to fuel tensions between minorities), and it's heavily biased because the standards for Asian immigration are so high, you're literally getting the top of the top academics/talents so ofc it's gonna be biased. We ain't all that smart (I'm an example of that), we're people like everyone else.

I lived in India for many years. The worst story about the Indians - and the Pakistanis - is their total, utter racism against black people. In Hindi the word black, kala, is being used as a curse...watch the movie mississippi masala to see the subtext, that is never discussed openly...
There are several reasons why Indian Americans lean conservative. Many are business owners who were really hurt by the Covid Lockdown and want to take it out on the Dems. Others are very well positioned as Upper middle class and don't feel kinship with the Democratic party's redistribution agenda. Some are religious and don't like the Liberal drive to redefine everything from Marriage to what it means to be a man/woman. And some are actually driven by hindutva sympathies who care more about the US' support for Modi and his party. It's a VERY diverse group.
@@argentdawn they are brown so you automatically assumed that they are not US citizens? Now tell me who’s racist here? So you also acknowledge that in the free and fair elections, Trump would get elected again!
Right! I'm not interested in a President who clowns around to entertain me, while Americans are being stacked-up dead in freezer trucks across the country.
As an Indian… I see the effort by Kal Penn to drive the narrative that Indians are voting mostly democratic or pro-establishment candidates like Nicky Haley..!! Just observe the background laughs or noises to see the show’s intent and narrative!
He took a shot at Nikki Haley though... in fact she and Trump were the only candidate he tried to look bad in this entire segment. If anything he seemed to be fronting for either Biden or Vivek
@gbg7090 I'm waiting for the "Nikki Haley can't be racist cuz she's an Indian woman" narrative from Republicans after that Civil War debacle. 🙄As a black person...😁🤭
Vivek is brilliant, Some of you people are playing Idenity politics saying it’s time to vote in a woman president 😢 People are sick 🤢 of idenity politics
Not really. He’s slick, pompous and loves to hear himself talk. He is willing to engage in conversation with anyone, but he seems convinced anyone that hears him talk will be won over by his brilliance. 😂. His ideas are ridiculous. He has no idea what he’s talking about. He had quick and easy solutions to everything. He’s full it -it.
Oof - honestly this stuff terrifies me. It's one thing if a dictator sneaks in the back door and consolidates power in a liberal democracy before people can react. It's completely another thing if people are saying "Eh - this guy's old and not super fun, so let's burn our democracy down and become a fascist dictatorship."
Well, Democrats are plunging themselves onto the sword by not running on substantive policy. Does anyone hear know any of Joe's the Corpse policy ideas for a second term? BTW, he is putting Hillary Clinton as a leader in his campaign. She lost to the orange clown. So, I think whomever is making those decisions needs to be fired.
You're acting like both sides aren't corrupt. Think for yourself, and not brain wash yourself with a lousy Indian who has lower ratings. Indians DONT claim Penn nor Kamala.
In his introduction, Kal said that the group was "mostly conservative." The show probably leaned this way, since it's expectedly more shocking/entertaining this way.
Hopefully that was some kind of sly attempt to encourage people to VOTE BLUE to counter the IGNORANCE! Your vote matters, Do not let the Fascists win by fooling people that do not understand or follow current events!

I thought this was going to be far more nuanced and insightful, it ended up being really sad. The criteria they have for making a sound choice is bonkers.
Its the power of media. To make you believe a fake representation of a large, diverse community carefully chosen to paint whatever narratives they want to push. The moment you realize that basic fact, you start getting intelligent about everything around you.
It's an edited program with a contrived "mediator" injecting obvious bias at every turn in the name of "humor", on a comedy channel. You might have a better chance at figuring out what people actually think by talking to them and asking them why they think what they think. But before you put yourself out there, you should ask yourself the same question. Most people can provide their opinions, while at the same time are completely incapable of explaining why they hold those opinions. Can you pass the test?
That young lady in the back row and the young guy in the front row were the only ones coherent....rest of them were bonkers like their chosen canditates!!
The wrong question, Kal. The right question is, if you're a murderer for one day, just because you stopped after that day, are you not still a murderer the next day?
I don’t think you realize that was a joke and you missed the second half of his comment. What he said is he will be a dictator for a day just so he can close the border and restart drilling. What kind of a Mickey Mouse dictator is that?
I just showed this video to my Indian-American coworker and he said you must remember the older American Indian don't see Kamala Harris as Indian because her mother married a African. Racism in India is big, that is why lightening creme is huge money maker there. I was completely shocked by his comment, but maybe that is why 6 of them voted for Trump.
What's wrong in supporting Modi large chunk of Indian population support him because of his welfare policies and strong leadership. He is 100 times better than any of your politicians that is the reason he is got two successive mandates
She tries very hard to appear that way as she also claims their is not racism in America. It is because she is well aware of it but does not care as long as she does not have to deal with it. So in her mind, it is completely fine.
Nikki Haley converted to Christianity. I am sure a lot of them on the panel were Modi supporters, whose government & party has been harassing Christians blaming them for conversions in India. Not sure how they came around to supporting Nikki Haley.
Re: "Once a lie gets stuck in your head, you would have to admit you were wrong to let it go." This is true, and it's a huge problem. Trump and his enablers in right wing news outlets are exploiting it to the max. This is why the delusional MAGA party problem is much larger than just Trump, and will be around long after he leaves the political stage.
and to let go of the bonds formed within the "us vs them" phenomenon of "Collective Narcissism". U.S. has oligarchs too, and if voters pointed their fingers at those who are really responsible for their struggles then the oligarch's wealth and power would be threatened. Answer (?): seek unbiased news &/or international consensus, plus, read as many full text transcripts of hearings and court filings as you can!
@@rosemariebredahl9519, "Answer (?): seek unbiased news &/or international consensus, plus, read as many full text transcripts of hearings and court filings as you can!" This is hugely important. Study the credibility of news outlets. (See: "The Media Bias Chart" and other news fact checkers.) Make a practice of checking controversial news stories using more than one outlet, preferably from different countries. Treat highly biased outlets as entertainment, even if they're accurate and you agree with them. Don't pass along news stories until you have double checked their authenticity and accuracy.
The attendant cognitive dissonance is a very real & powerful thing... the gross uncle in the hat is the poster boy for the kind of emotional strings that have been plucked & how difficult it is for human beings to unravel/admit when they are just wrong!!

Unfortunately, they would. Because these folks don't look at themselves in the mirror. They think they are somehow an exception. Question them more and they will all admit that they are chasing lower taxes - that is the only logical reason for them to support the Republican party and Trump.
Indian-americans are the highest earning ethnicity in the US (Making twice as much as a white household). They run a third of startups in silicon valley while being 1% of the population. They're one of the fasted growing ethnicities in high finance, they occupy top positions in big tech, they run trillion dollar companies. They make almost 10% of the GDP while being 1% of the population. Indian-americans cannot be replaced instead of Mexicans on trumps Speeches, they contribute, they dont demand shelter and social benefits. They come to America legally and obey their laws. They are the least violent ethnicity in the US. While illegal Mexican immigrants commit far more crime, come to the nation illegally and contribute far less to society. With what logic can hispanics be compared to Indian immigrants.
But, what if the scary part is they are not 75% Dem? 😅 …. Most Indians I know are/were concerned about taxes and these guys are probably voting with their wallets. Don’t care about social issues or others.
@seanbrown8920 Sikhs vote their conscience and are mostly liberal or old school conservative. It's ignorant Hindutvas who love Trump because he's a racist like PM Modi.
Which is a shame because black people started using that word to actually mean something of significance (watching out for things seeking to harm you). Then they co-opted it to mean "whatever we dont like". Ironically, by fear mongering about "wokeness" coming to destroy them and the country, they are practicing being woke.
Just look at the actions/personalities of candidates. Racist, sexist, misogynistic, moronic, non-reader, bully, nonsensical, LIAR. Ask yourself, would you want such a person as a friend, not to say a political leader? If you vote for such a person you deserve the future you've chosen. I'll be in Canada.

Indians tend to lean conservative, more so in the older generations. If not for the Christian extremists and racists, most Indian Americans would have been republicans.
The hit piece on Tulsi Gabbard and Vivak tells me all I need to know about how the Democratic party feels about Truth and Hindus. (Yes I know Vivak is running for the conservative party I was referring to all their interviews on Democrat-biased media )
Gabbard is a flake who has NOTHING but praise for Putin and Russia and defends Russian territorial grabs in Crimea and Ukraine. She's also on record being quite sympathetic to Turkey's Erdogan and Syria's Assad. Vivek's problem is he resorts too much to vague phraseology which seems like a collage buzz words.

Jon Stewart needs to run for Congress and then for the presidency. He is more intelligent than most of the MAGA GOP and he will do what's right for his constituents and the American people. He stood up for the first responders against Congress as well as vets battling with health issues linked to burn pits, those are just a couple of things he's done for other people.

This just goes to prove that people dont really vote based on issues... they look for the one with the most television show personality. People want an entertainer instead of a President or they just vote for their party no matter how incompetent the person running is.
Isn't it the story of most americans---totally ignorant of governance,a d why they must fight anyone who destroy or want to destroy democracy like the greatest enemy, you never know the worth of what you have until you loose it.
Not just sand ninjas, either. If your skin is the wrong color, then they came up with a way to call you a ninja somehow, pretty much guaranteed. I grew up in a native village (Inupiat natives, the village of Utqiagvik - named Barrow at the time) at the very top of the North American continent, and the racists there would use the term "snow ninja." It was pretty shocking to me the first time I heard it, as I was, like, 9. The village was unfortunately a cesspool of racist violence that flowed both ways. Not the best place to grow up, no matter your skin color.

The one thing you can tell from an interview with a room full of random people. If you’re paying close attention you can tell the individuals who repeat back certain things they’ve heard from TV news or social media, and they are not able to go more in depth about the information/topic they’ve heard on the news. They consistently repeat back what they’ve heard; no facts gathered. The individuals who are in tune to what is really going on in the political world can provide more detailed info, and give specific facts about the topics.
I am disgusted with these people. Go and listen to Defiant Lawyers. You guys are here in the strength of the Civil Rights fought by the blacks. Shame on you. Thank you Cal for bringing out the real colors of the Indian immigrants.
Not shocking, when India has pm Modi they tend to be fairly conservative. I can find more Korean or Chinese, that are more progressive and they tend to lean conservative. Not sure what rizz is but thankfully, most of her generation doesn't vote in the states.
Check the numbers dude Indian Americans disproportionately vote for Democrats this was true even in the previous election and further there are massive differences between Indian Right and American Right. MAGA's are Batshit crazy while Indian Right significantly moderated and support lot of liberal policies including Higher spending on social welfare etc
