[02:57] schestowitz[TR2] That was my belief until I visited India. I had two days extra and spent touring New Delhi. India has the most Muslims anywhere. More than all Arab countries combined. [02:57] schestowitz[TR2] Churches are everywhere. My colleague took me to a Sikh shrine and I saw a Baptist church not far away. [02:57] schestowitz[TR2] I do not need to understand caste but I do know discrimination when I see it. [02:57] schestowitz[TR2] Putting diversity before merit is insane.

OR Communist China just buys their way to get unlimited Visas for fake businesses to launder their money and buy properties here and then take jobs too.
